An innermost diameter of the ' stalactite ' structures of y2 mm is inconsistent with a stalactitic origin.
A stalactite grows down from a cave roof, a stalagmite grows up from the floor.
As the men move deeper into the cave toward the diamonds, they describe the remains of previous empires in the shape of patriarchs whose bodies have been preserved inside stalactites.
There are only a few stalactites and draperies on the ceiling and walls, but moderate and fragile speleothems are common on the floor.
In it are formations such as helctites (eccentric stalactites defying gravity) and curtains (draperies, or sheets of calcite, sometimes translucent, hanging from the ceiling).
This part of the cave consists of 6 large, well-lit rooms full of speleothems including stalactites, stalagmites, helictites, columns, and draperies.
The main attraction of the cave is the exquisite stalactite and stalagmite formations.
Sometimes amber retains the form of drops and stalactites, just as it exuded from the ducts and receptacles of the injured trees.
