LOTS of Plant Hairs with Mycetophilid Flies in Burmite Amber Fossil Dinosaur Age

Description: Please see my feedback. I have been selling amber fossils for over 15 years on eBay and do not sell fake amber only genuine material from now extinct plant sources not glass or plastic embedded with present day inclusions. This is a fully polished, cabochon shaped piece of Burmite (Burmese) amber that contains a rare cluster of stellate (star-like) plant hairs and two Mycetophilid flies from the Cretaceous Period when dinosaurs still walked the Earth.These Mycetophilid flies would have fed on ancient fungus and was on the Earth when T-Rex and Triceratops lived.The piece itself weighs 1.4 grams with approximate dimensions of 2.5 cm length by 1.6 cm width and 0.4 cm height. NOTE: 2.54 cm is 1 inch.Burmese (Burmite) amber is difficult to acquire and has been dated to be Cretaceous in age (around 100 million years old) and would have been sticky resin during the time of the dinosaurs and is being mined in the Hukawng Valley in Myanmar (Burma).In December of 2016, a portion of the tail of a small dinosaur was reported in a piece of burmite amber, and in June of 2017, a nearly complete extinct bird was reported in this material! Please see my other resin fossils including Dominican amber with inclusions, large Colombian copal with inclusions, and very rare Indonesian ambers (some of lovely blue and green color). I do combine items for up to 7 days to save on shipping costs. Please contact me if you purchase more than one item so I can send you a combined invoice so you do not overpay on shipping. International Buyers: Please note that I ship using First Class Mail International. A SPECIAL NOTE CONCERNING INTERNATIONAL BUYERS: Please understand that import duties, taxes and charges are NOT included in the selling price or shipping charges. These charges are the buyer's responsibility. Please check your country's customs office to determine what these additional charges may be prior to bidding/buying. I cannot guarantee delivery of your item in a set amount of time. Different country's customs offices take longer to process items than others do. Lastly, I do not mark merchandise values below their true value or mark items as "gifts." U.S. and International government regulations prohibit such behavior. Honesty is the best option. I only sell genuine, all-natural, non-heat treated, reconstituted, or color enhanced amber. This piece could be used as a specimen or in a piece of jewelry. Thank you for your consideration. This amber will ship worldwide. I will combine items to save on shipping for up to a 7 day period and usually ship within a 24 hour period. Please note that the saltwater test to identify real from fake amber is not reliable. The saltwater test claims that real amber will float in saltwater while fake amber will sink. However, many amber sources or even specimens will not float in saltwater as their botanical (plant) composition as well as fossil inclusions are such that they are more dense than saltwater and so sink. I do not sell fake amber. My feedback should help demonstrate this.
