Dripstone Caves

The dripstone caves biome is an Overworld cave biome filled with clusters and pillars of pointed dripstone and dripstone blocks.

Description
On the surface, this biome is indistinguishable from a plains biome, except from cold looking grass.

Underground, dripstone caves generate as a cave biome but with dripstone blocks and pointed dripstone both hanging as stalactites and growing from the ground as stalagmites, small water wells of 1 × 1 blocks are generated in the ground. They mostly appear like regular caves, except with patches of dripstone blocks and pointed dripstone. Large dripstone clusters structures generate occasionally inside ravines. This biome also generates larger copper ore blobs compared to other biomes.

In Java Edition 1.18 Experimental Snapshot 1, Dripstone Caves generates naturally underground. In Bedrock Edition, it generates randomly underground in caves if the Experimental Gameplay feature is turned on.
