Yes, an earthquake can indirectly contribute to the formation of stalactites. While stalactites primarily form from the deposition of minerals from dripping water in caves, an earthquake may create new cracks and openings in the earth, allowing water to flow and mineral-laden solutions to drip from the ceiling of caves. Over time, these deposits can build up and form stalactites. However, the earthquake itself does not create stalactites directly; it alters the environment to facilitate their formation.
