The antler field of the Calcite Helictite section should record stations that exhibit antler helictites.
Antler helictites are helictites that are fatter than ordinary helictites. Like the arms of a deer antler, they exhibit the eccentric growth directions. They may or may not be branched. They are usually found on the ceiling, walls or ledges or could grow from other speleothems. They may be mixed with various other speleothems including other helictites.
