Stalagmite Specimen on a Wooden Base 48cm

Natural limestone stalagmites have a delicate colour and shape that hides their lengthy formation, deep in limestone caves. Calcium carbonate is a major component of limestone and is deposited onto the floors of caves by mineralized liquid dripping from the ceiling onto one spot over many years. Eventually this results in a stalagmite.

This delightful stalagmite specimen has been mounted on a wooden plague to create a simple and striking ornament wherever you place it. It makes a great gift for those captivated by geology and natural rock formations.
