General Science / Re: What are these giant crystals?
« on: 15/09/2007 18:50:30 »sorry no i didnt post it 3 times on purpose.
the crystals are gypsum , recently here in the uk a programme on the bbc " planet earth " visited tose caves , it took the crew 9 hours to reach the crystals.
they are real crystals by the way.
Maybe it took them 9 hours to reach because of all of their equipment. There are a series of elevators they were probably not allowed to go on which would have also sped up the trip. It took me a max of 2 hours to get there and it was the second cave we visited. The first had smaller crystals all over the walls. It looked like a beautiful wonderland of colors.
