The formations are called stalactites and stalagmites.
Stalactites and stalagmites are precipitated calcite.
Stalactites are found on the ceiling of caves and are made by the dripping of water enriched with calcium, from the cracks in the ceiling. when the calcium precipitates from the water it leaves calcium and the water drops down to start the formation of stalagmites that are created in the same process but are created by the water dripping off of stalactites. :) hope this helped
They usually grow from limestone. Mostly in caves.
Ground water, mineral deposits, and stalactites
Stalactites hang from the ceiling. Stalagmites build upwards from the floor. I found an easy way to remember which is which.. that stalactites "cling tight (-tite)" to the ceiling.
