Amber - (Found in Baltic Coast, Dominican Republic, Mexico, Russia, North America) True amber, fossilized tree resin, is millions of years old and came from ancient pines and conifer trees that are now extinct. Some product marketed today as amber is tree resin, but not old enough to qualify as true amber. Amber is very light and though not a mineral it is considered precious and being so is the only precious "stone" that floats. Avoid exposing amber to alcohol, contained in many hairsprays and perfumes, or ether which may cause it to lose its luster. Amber, which some believe brings luck, may also help balance the endocrine and digestive systems. Amber may aid eyesight and help reduce swelling of the glands in the throat and lungs.
