Cave pearls forming in a splash pool in an underground limestone mine. Experimental cave pearls placed in this pool for 8–22 months show rapid growth and recrystallization (see Melim and Spilde 2011). Photo by Kenneth Ingham.

    That is a really neat photo. Almost looks like it should be on another planet!

    Beautiful picture, and a very interesting paper about rapid growth of cave pearls.
