Hard translucent fossil resin (5)

I believe the answer is:

amber

(Other definitions for amber that I've seen before include "Light colour between red and green" , "Neither red nor green?" , "Cautionary light" , "Yellowish fossilised resin" , "Deep yellow" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
