Description: Florida Fulgurite Lightning Strike 1-3/8" Sand Fused Tubular Glass Specimen Recovered on Pensacola Bay, Santa Rosa County. Fulgurites are natural tubes or crusts of glass formed by the fusion of silica (quartz) sand or rock from a lightning strike. Their shape mimics the path of the lightning bolt as it disperses into the ground. All lightning strikes that hit the ground are capable of forming fulgurites. Lets face it, fulgurites are rare. If you are hunting for them, be prepared to commit some time to the endeavor. If you are looking for sand fulgurites, focus on beaches nearly anywhere from New England to Florida on the eastern coastline of the US. Florida in the Tampa Bay area receives some of the highest lighting activity in the US. This presents opportunities for finding lightning glass with more frequency than other places. Several people have had success finding sand fulgurites in the Florida pan handle such as this one.
