Amber

Cretaceous amber is a type of fossilized tree resin that dates back to the Cretaceous period, approximately 100 million years ago. This amber is known for its beautiful golden color and its ability to preserve ancient plant and animal specimens. Many important scientific discoveries have been made thanks to the study of Cretaceous amber, including the identification of new species and the understanding of prehistoric ecosystems. The preservation of small organisms, such as insects and plants, within the amber provides valuable insights into the biodiversity and ecology of the ancient world. Cretaceous amber continues to be a valuable resource for paleontologists and researchers, offering a window into the distant past and shedding light on the evolution of life on Earth.
