AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Fulgurites are glassy structures caused by a lightning strike in the sand. This impressive specimen features a tubular shape with a large internal channel that allows light to pass through, as well as a wide opening that reveals the interior glazing. It has a grayish tone, with sand inclusions on the exterior. The lightning strike occurred in an undetermined area of the Sahara Desert in Algeria. I acquired it in spring 2023. I am sending it with a gift bottle containing Sahara sand and a certificate of authenticity card IMCA 5955.
