Some of the more destructive forces that have occurred on our planet have also created beautiful gemstones. Breccias can form from natural weathering processes but they also form as the result of seismic activity and meteor impacts! They are broken pieces of rock that are cemented back together naturally with either sediment or mineral growth. Tektites are molten glass ejecta from meteor impacts. And they are gorgeous! Moldavite and Libyan Desert Glass are good examples. And finally, while not necessarily a natural disaster, lightning can create fulgurites. Now that I think about it, tornadoes could probably break apart rocks that become breccia over time as well. Interesting!
