PULPI Geode: The Mystery of the Giant Crystals

Показать описание

The geode of Pulpí is an 11-meter hollow ovoid with crystal-paneled walls. It is like those familiar couplets of stone interiors covered with bright crystallites, but so large that several people can fit inside. The crystals, of up to two meters in size, are so transparent that they look like ice crystals.

I really wish these people would wear gloves when handling the crystals. They're going to ruin them over time.

Another amazing giant crystal cave. Also, I need to know the song in the background. 😊

Just walking on these crystals will destroy them. Seems a shame that these 'scientists' are either unaware of that? or do not care? I cannot understand it. I have been in caves that once had beautiful passages of crystal geodes that are nothing but white dust now because of cavers going through them all the time. :-(
