The second lightning strike impacted on a mountaintop about 2 km from the first.
The second impact was on a mountaintop where the first author worked in 2002.
The mountaintop consists of banded iron formation with alternating bands of metachert and magnetite.
At two sites (open woodland and mountaintop rain forest) the top trap (20 m) had to be pulled into position from 16 m and secured.
A few years later a second lightning impacted on a mountaintop close to the first impact.
The rain-forest-clearing site was a grassed area (30 m diameter, with a radio transmitter tower), surrounded by complex notophyll vine forest, and 150 m from the mountaintop rain-forest site.
In burning the mountaintop fortress, they also torched the two churches and town.
The town itself is perched on a mountaintop 1000 m above sea level.
