Calcite (Inventory)/Helictite/other

From LagWiki

The other field of the Calcite Helictite section should record stations that exhibit helictites which are not antler, beaded, snake dancer or subaqueous. Any other type of helictite should be recorded here.

Most helictites found will be inventoried as "other" since they do not have the proper characteristics for more specific categorization. Any helictite which is not thick (antler), growing upwardly (snake dancer), beaded or subaqueous (under water) should be listed in this field.
