Why is Dominica Lanper so expensive?

There are many kinds of amber, such as blood, blue, insect, and so on. The Dominican Blue Perg is one of the most interesting ones, even known as the "king of amber", and the price is naturally not affordable to the average person. So why is Dominican BluePur so expensive? Don't worry, Xiaobian will come to talk about it.

First, from the perspective of rarity:

Most of the Dominican Blue Perg mines are in caves dug on steep slopes, and because amber hardness is generally low, it cannot be mined by large machinery or blasting. It can only be mined artificially, and the mining technology is also backward. The original tools such as hammers are used to dig tunnels, and environmental factors. As soon as the autumn and winter rainy seasons, the tunnels will accumulate water and cannot work. Therefore, it can be mined only from May to September every year.

In addition, Dominica's own production is also very rare. According to statistics, Dominican blue paul raw materials account for less than 1% of global amber reserves, and monthly production averages less than 20,000 grams. Almost half of the unusable raw materials such as scraps and scraps are used. In the remaining half, most of them contain impurities or cracks and can only be rated as secondary products. Therefore, the quality of the Blue Perch produced each month is only about 5 kg. The most common and most abundant Baltic amber in the amber market, the annual output is about 100 tons or more. In contrast, the gap naturally comes out.

On the other hand, due to the extremely low output, the available raw materials that can be selected from it are few and far between, and the water purification level of Lanpo is rare among many ore. The production cost of Dominican Blue Percy is very high. There is more and more water purification and quality products in the market for players, and the quality of the products is not available, so it will be so expensive in terms of price.

In the early days, Europeans almost bought Dominican blue rops raw materials, so that the European countries only believe that only a few countries produce amber. Due to the collection of collectors and major museums, most of the boutiques are out of the country, so the Dominican Republic banned Lanper exports. So the market is extremely rare.

Second, from the optical effect:

Although Lanper has a "blue" in its name, under natural light, people usually see a light lemon-yellow amber. Only in the dark background, or as the light changes, at a special angle, you can see a dreamlike blue, and this blue will show a completely different color change in different light, blue , green, purple, brown, yellow, etc.

Lanper's color change principle is that the blue slab placed on a white plane, when exposed to sunlight, a large amount of light will pass through the translucent amber crystal and be reflected by the white paper to give a pale blue hue. If the black background is used instead, most of the light is absorbed by the black background, and the rest of the light is reflected by the crystal of the amber itself into the observer's eyes. Under the action of abundant hydrocarbons in the amber crystal, the famous blue-blue tone of blue amber appeared. The reflection of this strange hydrocarbon can only be observed under ultraviolet light, and the artificial light without ultraviolet light can not shine the amber blue, but it is only a yellow-brown ordinary in front of the observer. amber.

As for the special blue causes of Lanpo, there are many different opinions. The saying that is widely recognized by the scientific community is that Lanpo was originally a common amber in the stratum. It is the high temperature of the Dominican volcano erupted thousands of years ago, causing the amber buried in the stratum to be hot. Solution, and the fluorescent substance produced during the pyrolysis process - the polycyclic aromatic molecules are incorporated into the amber, which is the core of the mysterious color of the blue. It can be seen that the unique geological conditions of Dominica at the time can contribute to the formation of Lanpo, which is why it is only produced in the country.

Therefore, the object is rare, and the beautiful optical effect and scarcity of Lanpo is enough to establish its amber dominance.
