In the Rivne region, ≈35,000,000 annual insects were found in amber
Real treasures of the past were discovered on the shores of the Galbin field in the Sarnensky district - amber inclusions with insects preserved for approximately 30-40 million years.
The Amber Galbin company's Facebook page reports that the amber they found has millions of years behind it. An insect trapped in the resin hardened and turned into stone through a natural process. This phenomenon is called inclusion, when small objects are frozen in time , creating miniature capsules of the past.
Like crystal mosaics, amber inclusions reveal a mysterious world to us . In addition to insects, they can also contain the remains of ancient plants and various arachnid individuals such as ticks, spiders and even scorpions.
