Stalactites

Stalactites are mineral formations that hang from the ceilings of caves, formed as water drips down and deposits minerals such as calcium carbonate. These formations typically have a cylindrical or conical shape and can vary in size from just a few inches to several feet in length. Stalactites are known for their icicle-like appearance and are often found in underground caves and caverns around the world.
