Chihlimbar Fosil from Indonesia - natural resin | Model 9

Size 5.8 x 4.6 x 4 cm

Weight: 43 gr

Natural fossil gross amber specimen, from Sumatra region, Indonesia-one of the few active amber sources in Southeast Asia. This tropical area is known for its soils rich in organic sediments and intense geological activity, ideal conditions for the formation of amber. 

The amber was formed by draining the resin from the tropical trees and its accumulation in the soil, where it was gradually covered by successive layers of sludge, clay and rock. Under the high pressure and temperature of the terrestrial bark, the resin has slowly transformed into a stable fossil material, with a complex polymer structure.

The part presented is gross, unprocessed, with irregular surface and natural form. The color varies between warm and dark yellow, and the texture is opaque, with slight translucent areas. It is ideal for collectors, passionate about geology or for educational exposure.
