Straw Stalactites in Alexandra Caves, Naracoorte, S.A.
Stalactites are formed as countless water drops fall from the roof of a cave. As the water drop builds in size, until gravity causes it to fall, it forms a tiny mineral deposit in the shape of a ring. Over time as countless water drops form and fall, this ring grows into a straw. The formation of stalactites and stalagmites is a great example of repetition.
