retinite (fossil resin) (amber (fossil resin), fossil resin, ... Materials (hierarchy name)) |
|
Note: General term for any of a large group of fossil resins occurring in deposits of brown lignite, peat, etc. These resins resemble succinite in appearance, but contain little or no succinic acid. Around 40 varieties of amber are recognized, divided into two main groups: those containing succinic acid make up the succinite group and those having little or no succinic acid belong to the retinite group.

Additional Notes: |
|
| Dutch ..... Algemene term voor fossiele harsen uit een grote groep die voorkomen in afzettingen van bruinkool, turf, enz. Deze harsen lijken uiterlijk op succiniet, maar bevatten weinig of geen succinietzuur. Er zijn ongeveer veertig ambersoorten bekend, onderverdeeld in twee hoofdgroepen: de soorten die succinietzuur bevatten vormen de succinietgroep en de soorten met weinig of geen succinietzuur tot de retinietgroep. |
