Cave Pearls
Formed as calcite rich water drips into their tiny nests, cave pearls must be amongst the most beautiful of all speleothems we could ever encounter - and are certainly a personal favourite of the Winster Cavers. These photographs were taken in caves, and mines throughout the UK - don't ask us where though, that's a secret!

Each small depression in this calcite flow seems to make the perfect home for a small cluster of cave pearls, photographed in a disused lead mine, UK. |
