To find stalactites, look on the ceiling of the cave, where mineral-rich water drips and deposits calcium carbonate as it evaporates. Stalagmites form on the cave floor directly beneath stalactites, arising from the dripping water that falls and accumulates minerals. Flowstones can be found along walls or floors where water flows slowly, forming thin layers of mineral deposits. Lastly, helictites, which grow in various directions, can often be found on walls or ceilings, typically in areas with less direct water flow.
