Amber From India
Scientists have discovered a treasure trove of prehistoric insects preserved in amber in India. The new deposits, which the scientists have likened to a huge cache of herbal cough drops, were found in the open-cast coal mines of the Cambay region of north-west India. Many thanks to Steve Connor for sharing the info.
