Piezoelectric effects at tectonic plate boundaries
Granite is known to exhibit remarkable photoemission due to the piezo-induced effect of the quartz within. There have been witness accounts of earthquake lightning in areas without granite. The researchers looked at descriptions of earthquake lightning in the Japan Historical Earthquake Archives. At least 5 of the 55 accounts of earthquake lightnings were due to landslides since 869 A.D.

Dust from volcanic eruptions cause lightning as well .

Not sure why you've opened the thread in Non-Mainstream Science. These effects are generally recognised and have been for years. I think I have some papers somewhere on my hard drive. I'll look them out.

A "Like" triggered me to look at this again. Unfortunately, if I do have the papers I've filed them under some obscure heading. My file structures tend to be thirty levels deep or more.
