==Uses== '''Cave onyx''' is any of various kinds of flowstone considered desirable for ornamental architectural purposes. "Cave onyx" was a common term in certain areas of the United States—particularly the [[Tennessee]]-[[Alabama]]-[[Georgia (U.S. state)|Georgia]] area and the [[Ozarks]]—during the 19th and early 20th centuries, being applied to calcite speleothems that were banded in a way suggestive of true [[onyx]]. There are a number of US caves called "[[Onyx Cave (disambiguation)|Onyx Cave]]" because of the presence in them of such deposits.
