This amber is notable for its age, with estimates placing it at around 99 million years old, dating back to the Cretaceous period. It is renowned for its preservation of ancient life forms, including a wide variety of inclusions such as insects, spiders, and plant material, making it valuable for both collectors and scientific research.
