Changes in humidity, airflow, and water chemistry cause these deposits to grow into rounded nodules, bulbous formations, and intricate sculptural surfaces unlike those found in most surface mineral deposits.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1885\" data-end=\"2232\"\u003eIn some specimens, later generations of crystal growth line small cavities with sparkling calcite druzy, creating beautiful contrast between smooth cave formations and glittering crystal interiors.
