A mineral or a type of stone/gem resembling amber in appearance and properties.
From 'amber' plus the mineral suffix '-ite' (used for stone and mineral names like 'granite', 'dolomite'), indicating something with amber-like qualities.
Mineral scientists use '-ite' endings so consistently that geologists can sometimes guess a mineral's properties just from its name—amberite sounds like it should be amber-colored, and it probably is.
