Amber is the fossilized resin of trees. Most amber is
golden yellow to golden orange, but green, red, violet, white and black
amber has been found. Transparent to translucent, it usually occurs as
nodules or small , irregularly shaped masses, often with a cracked and
weathered surface. Amber may contain insects, moss, lichen or leaves
that where trapped millions of years ago while the resin was still
sticky. Air bubbles may give amber a cloudy appearance but heating
in oil will clear this. When rubbed, amber produces a negative
electrical charge that attracts dust. "Amberoid" is formed by heating
and pressing together scraps of amber.
Occurrence: The most famous deposits
are in the Baltic region, particularly along the coast of Poland and
former USSR. Baltic amber washed from the seabed may reach as far as the
coasts of Norway and Denmark. Amber from Burma is called Burmite,
Sicilian amber is called Simetite. Other localities include the
Dominican Republic, Mexico, France, Spain, Italy, Germany, Romania,
Canada, Czech and the USA
Remark: Amber has had a number of
medicinal uses to it, but today is used almost exclusively for Jewelry.
It has been imitated by plastic, glass, synthetic resin and other
natural resins like copal.
