Copal Resin 1 lb: K Full Description
This is Frontier's nitrogen-flushed double wall silverfoil pack. Some Frontier packs are double wall wax-lined paper. Copal resin, that is, crystallized sap of many trees, primarily Bursera fagaroides, has been used ritually by Mesoamericans for centuries. Crystallized copal resin chunks are placed on burning charcoal which produces a thick, sweet smoke. Copal resin is traditionally burned in protection, cleansing and purification ceremonies. Large amounts of Copal Incense were burned on top of the Aztec and Mayan pyramids. This is a non-combustible resin incense, which means heat must be applied to release its fragrance (usually with a self-lighting charcoal tablet). To use incense, ignite a charcoal tablet and place in a heat-proof container. Grind the incense to a fine powder and sprinkle on the glowing tablet. http://www.gplatt.demon.co.uk/typesof.htm: Copal is a more mature form of resin. The word copal comes from the Spanish word copalli which means incense, a task for which copal can in fact be employed. Polymerisation has now progressed significantly through the body of the resin. In some cases the surface of the copal has fractured and crazed due to the surface shrinkage prompted through the initial evaporation of the turpenes which also begins during this period. Significant copal deposits exist in Columbia, South America in the Santander province. This material is less than 1000 years old. Copal deposits exist in: Africa (North, East and West) - Borneo, Congo, Madagascar, Kenya, Tanzania, Zanzibar. Asia - Damar. Australia - Allendale Victoria. Baltic. East India. Indonesia. Israel. Japan - Mizunami. Malaya. Philippines. South America - Brazil, Colombia, Sierra Leone and the Congo. Sumatra. The complete transition from resin to amber has to have two additional factors present: heat and pressure. Heat and pressure may support the process of polymerisation and turpene evaporation but their full effect upon the formation of amber is not fully understood.
