These spherical wonders are found in the silica-rich volcanic landscape of the Tweed and tell a story of the molten lava that once flowed through the area over 20 million years ago. As the lava cooled, the trapped gas and minerals produced a stunning array of colour and crystals inside the thunder eggs. This collection is currently not on display until 2024. Please visit the collection online via the link below or contact us regarding the thunder egg specimens from the Museum's extensive collection.
