Natural Druzy Cave Calcite Stalactite Specimen Moon Southwestern ChinaA stalactite is a cave formation that hangs from the ceiling of a cave. Many stalactites are made of calcite, a mineral that is found in limestone caves. Calcite is formed when rainwater seeps through the cave and dissolves calcium carbonate. Over time, these crystals grow and eventually form stalactites. These druzy calcite stalactites are particularly sparkly because they are covered in tiny crystals.
