These trees belonged to pine class. The mineral can be white, yellow, greenish, azure, red, but most often found are shining in the sun, yellowish gold color formations. Because of this amber is often called the stone of the sun.<\/p>\n<p>Amber is a compound of organic acids<strong>. It\u2018s chemical formula is C<sub>10<\/sub>H<sub>16<\/sub>O. <\/strong>Amber is composed out of several chemical elements. It contains 78% of carbon, around 11% of oxygen and around 10% of hydrogen. Sulphur impurities are frequent. Amber is soft, amorphic, doesn\u2018t have a correct crystal form, it\u2018s hardness according to Mohs scale \u2013 2-2.5, sometimes increases up to 3, the density is from 1.05 to 1.096 g\/cm\u00b3, so it\u2018s easily polished and buffed. By its classification class this mineral is attributed to burning mineral resources, humus carbon group.<\/p>\n<p>According to O. Helm, amber has from 3 to 8 % of amber acid.<\/p>\n<p>Opaque amber formations have less carbon than the clear pieces which can be evaluated as a compound of larger amounts of resin. Oxygen appears in amber in the form of bubbles, in the yellow clear amber up to 6000 bubbles in 1 \u0441m<sup>3<\/sup>, in the opaque one \u2013 up 900 000. This means that the clarity of the stone is proportional to the amount of oxygen bubbles in it.<\/p>\n<p>At a temperature of 150\u00b0 C amber starts to soften and at 300\u00b0 C it melts. It inflames easily and emits a smell of sap. This mineral is characterized by dielectric qualities and it contains heat. Naturally it\u2018s found in pieces with diameter from 1 to 10-20 cm or more, sometimes massive pieces weighing up to 10 kg can be found. The forms of the pieces are various: drops, droplets, irregular shaped formations, and porous plates, round shaped forms.<\/p>\n<p>There are about 150 fossil (Latin fossilis \u2013 excavated) sorts of resin. From non-organic minerals fossil sap differ because they\u2018re made up of only three chemical elements: carbon, oxygen and hydrogen. During XVII \u2013 XVIII centuries when mining was on the rise, in brown carbon clusters first of all, later in other sediments various fossil sap sorts were found that varied greatly by their chemical characteristics. Most of the fossil sap was found in the Northern hemisphere, Europe and America during XX\u2013XXI centuries. Also more and more of them are now found in Asia, Africa and South America.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;12366&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;12368&#8243; img_size=&#8221;full&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Baltic amber is fossil Eocene period pine family coniferous tree resin that changed because of oxidation, polymerization, hydration and dehydration processes and the actions of microorganisms. An average composition of amber is: C &#8211; 78,55%, H &#8211; 9,64%, O &#8211; 11,81%. Amber started forming in the Cenozoic epoch Paleocene period around 55-40 million years ago. Coniferous trees, the so-called amber trees (<em>Pinus succinifera<\/em>), grew in the current regions of Scandinavia and close-by Baltic Sea bottom areas (The Baltic Sea started forming only 13 thousand year ago).<\/p>\n<p>Amber is first mentioned in written sources in X century B.C. in Assyrian cuneiforms.<\/p>\n<p>Amber pieces found are of various weights: from several grams to several kilograms.<\/p>\n<p>Amber can be of various forms. It depends on the reljef on which it lay, on how the tree resin dripped.<\/p>\n<p>Amber is very light, fragile, comparatively soft, so can easily be furbished. It difficultly transmits electrical current, but when rubbed to wooly materials gets electrified and maintains the electric charge for quite a while.<\/p>\n<p>Amber\u2018s hardness according to Mohs scale varies between 2 and 3.<\/p>\n<p>When irradiated by ultraviolet light amber shines in various colors (other similar materials don\u2018t have this quality).<\/p>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=&#8221;2\/3&#8243;][vc_column_text]<strong><em>According to color and clarity amber is divided into these sorts: <\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Clear amber <\/strong>\u2013 one of the most valued sorts.
