    — Speleofacts, like artifacts, are formed by removal of material, addition of material, or both. Speleofacts are of two general types: speleogens, such as scour troughs, dome-pits, and drip pockets, form by solution and corrasion excavating cave rock and sediments; speleothems, such as flowstone, stalactites, and cave pearls, form by deposition of calcite within the cave.
