Thunder Egg w/ Quartz Centre
Fish-like Thunder Egg w/ Agate and open Quartz centre from Mt Hay, Queensland.
Thunder Eggs are forged in the cosmic fire of volcanic activity, the available elements form a rhyolite bubble, trapping pure silica, resulting in either agate or quartz to be constructed, and sometimes both! Through filtered heat, a difference in pressure will decide whether a microcrystal structure (agate) or visible quartz crystals will form within the bubble.
