After cooling, glass-like hollow tubes (Fulgurites) can sometimes be located beneath the surface of the sand, generally decreasing in diameter and sometimes branching as they descend, sometimes extending for several feet. The outer surfaces of sand fulgurites are often rough with adhering, unfused Quartz sand grains. This specimen clearly demonstrates the awesome power which Mother Nature has at her disposal. \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"blockquote0\" style=\"box-sizing: inherit; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; font-family: Arial; font-size: large;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"blockquote0\" style=\"box-sizing: inherit; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; font-size: large;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Aryelle","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53405054599533,"sku":"EB-257282665594","price":395.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0999\/9974\/4365\/files\/57_443eaf2e-b81f-41d8-94cd-392c406976db.jpg?v=1780635758","url":"https:\/\/aryelle-2.myshopify.com\/products\/7-25-fulgurite-lightning-fused-sand-alabama-fossil-lightning-museum-piece","provider":"Aryelle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
