Fulgurite is a striking natural glass created when lightning blasts sandy soil or dunes, sparking a rare geological marvel. The intense heat of a lightning strike—reaching up to 30,000 degrees Celsius—fuses sand grains into unique tubes or branching formations. Often called petrified lightning or lightning rock, fulgurite captures the explosive power of nature in solid form. The Sahara Desert in Algeria, with its sweeping sands and frequent storms, is a prime stage for these bold, silica-based sculptures that range from fragile threads to complex, electrifying patterns.
