Applied geology in the research of Karol Bohdanowicz and his Polish graduates in Siberia at the turn of the 20th century
Journal Title: Studia Historiae Scientiarum - Year 2016, Vol 15, Issue
Abstract
Research in the field of applied geology (geology of deposits, engineering geology, hydrogeology) at the turn of the 20th century in Siberia, was conducted by the graduates of the Institute of Mining led by Karol Bohdanowicz. The team included, among others, Stefan Czarnocki and Stanisław Doktorowicz-Hrebnicki. Their activity in Siberia became a proof that the so-called “Bohdanowicz’s school” existed and the results of their research have earned their place in the science and have become the basis for developing the mining of mineral resources.
