Not sure if this amber is actually amber
KompsFossilsNMinerals posted a topic in Is It Real? How to Recognize Fossil Fabrications
Hi everyone, this is a piece of "amber" I bought a little while back. Not entirely sure if it's real so I thought I'd check here. It fluoresces green under a UV light and sort of smells sappy when pricked with a hot pin. Also included are some microscopic photos of the insect inclusions.- 16 replies

Opinions on this fossil lizard please
britishcanuk posted a topic in Is It Real? How to Recognize Fossil Fabrications
Hi, i was hoping for some thoughts on this specimen that was listed on a local buy/sell site. The ad stated the following; " As a gift, my hubby received this fossil in a stone slab while in China on business several yrs ago . It was a gift without any documentation, but given the source, he believes it to be authentic. FOR SALE!!!" thanks for looking.- 35 replies
