Stalagmite
The water dripping from
the end of a stalactite falls to the floor of a cave and deposits more calcite
into a mound. A stalagmite will form in a cone like shape. This is why you
usually find stalactites and stalagmites in pairs.
It's a type of rock formation that rises from the floor of a cave due to the accumulation of
material deposited on
the floor.In fact a stalagmite is an upward-growing of mineral
deposits from water dripping onto the floor of a cave. Most
stalagmites have rounded or flattened tips.
