Sumatran Amber is a so-called Glessite (compared to Succinite= Baltic Amber from Pinetree sap) referring to the type of Tree which originally produced the resin. In this case, the Sumatran Amber Glessite comes from an extinct evergreen tropical leaf-tree related to Dipterocarpaceae. Age of the Amber is estimated 20-40million years (Terciary).
