WHAT IS BURMESE AMBER?Burmese Amber, also referred to as Burmite, is from the Hukawng Valley in the Northern State of Kachin in Myanmar. Burmese amber is Cretaceuos in Age, at 100 Million Years Old so it is Much Older than Baltic or Dominican Amber and Far More Rare as baltic amber makes up 80% of the Amber in the world. Burmese amber is of significant palaeontological interest due to the diversity of flora and fauna contained as inclusions, particularly arthropods including insects and arachnids but also birds, lizards, snakes, frogs and fragmentary dinosaur remains.
