Succinite (Resinite)

Amber

Succinite

Orange cabochon gemstone, likely amber or amber-like resin

Natural amber: fossilized plant resin (organic mineraloid), commonly succinite; exact identification requires testing

Polished amber (likely copal or amber)

Amber: fossilized plant resin, chiefly polymerized diterpenes; copal is younger, partially polymerized resin

Yellow amber

Amber; fossilized plant resin, commonly succinite (not a mineral)

Tumbled amber-like chalcedony or resinous fossil material

Likely chalcedony (microcrystalline SiO₂), though the appearance could also indicate copal/amber

Tumbled amber-like gemstone

Likely amber (fossilized resin; organic mineraloid), possibly citrine or yellow-brown glass imitation
