i think its made of limestone i dont really know though.

I do!

In almost all cases, in caves formed in limestone, the formations are of the mineral calicte (calcium carbonate), the primary compound of limestone. Water dissolves the calcium carbonate, which can then precipitate in the air of a cave passage to form the stalactites, stalagmites, etc.
