Original Message:   UV light
A hand-held UV light is often a quick way to sort amber - it fluoresces, often to blue. Not fool-proof, as the fluorescence decreases with the length of time the amber has been out of the ground. But quicker and less messy than a vat of saturated salt solution. Copyright 2024 All rights reserved by Bead Collector Network and its users
