Über Ambra Dorata

Ambra Dorata (DNSA Stein 6129, Bahia, Brazil) is a medium to coarse-grained banded stone of Precambrian age. DNSA classifies it as Sandstein (sandstone) in the sedimentary group. StoneContact (s1133) markets it as quartzite and describes it as a metamorphic rock originally derived from pure quartz sandstone - a common characterization for Brazilian stones that lie in the sandstone-to-quartzite transition zone.
