How long can stalactites and stalagmites grow?
They will grow as long as there is a supply of water and minerals from above, and until the space between them is finally connected into a column. +++ When that happens, calcite may still be deposited but on the outside of the column, thickening the whole formation. . I do know one column though that is being dissolved! It is quite small, less than a metre high, and called 'The Singing Stal' from squeaking noises made by water trickling down fine channels it has etched into the surface. I do not know why it is decaying, but the limestone around the caves has been heavily mineralised so perhaps the Singing Stal's own water-supply has "found" an acidity-raising mineral. It is located in Charterhouse Cave in an area of the Mendip Hills, S.W. England, that was once worked for lead. Oddly, all the other speleothems around it are still growing,
Do stalagmites fall?
They can topple, but not usually, because stalagmites grow up from the, or a, floor. If the floor moves - perhaps because it was a boulder or a mud-bank rather than bed-rock, and it slumps - then so will the stalagmite. . I wonder if you meant stalactites. They can drop from the ceiling by their own weight, but that's very rare. Some of the fallen stalactites you find may have been dislodged by a minor earthquake at some time in the cave's geological history; or more recently by basting shock if the host hillside is being quarried. Others, in active stream caves, have been broken off by very rare, extreme, floods.
