from
Wikipedia
Amber is fossilized tree resin ( not sap ), which has been appreciated for its color and natural beauty since Neolithic times.
Much valued from antiquity to the present as a gemstone, amber is made into a variety of decorative objects.
Because it originates as a soft, sticky tree resin, amber sometimes contains animal and plant material as inclusions.
Amber occurring in coal seams is also called resinite, and the term ambrite is applied to that found specifically within New Zealand coal seams.
