a pillar!
No, a stalagmite rises from the floor. A stalactite hangs from the roof

A stalactite is a structure that hangs from the ceiling of a cave and is formed by minerals dripping down, while a stalagmite is a structure that rises from the floor of a cave and is formed by minerals deposited from drips falling from the stalactite. When a stalactite and a stalagmite eventually meet and grow together, they form a column.
no its not it is sedimentary rock
a column
Stalactites and stalagmites are slightly different in their growth and do not depend on each other to grow. A stalactite grows when calcium carbonate and other ions precipitate out from the groundwater. A stalagmite forms when calcium carbonate and other ions precipitate out from the groundwater. This water does not need to come from stalactites. When a stalactite and a stalagmite do grow with one above the other, they are called a column when they meet.
