EducationFull Names of Russian Mineralogists

15th Feb 2012 14:48 UTCVandall Thomas King Manager

Can anyone help with the full names, birth cities, and full birth dates for T. A. Kurova and A. V. Bykova? They have named many minerals, but I'm not able to find complete information and would like to add their names to Mindat mineral species pages they are associated with.

Van,


From the American Mineralogist, 91,1452 (2006)


"Bykovaite is named to honor analytical chemist Alexandra

Vasilyevna Bykova (1917-2001), who first discovered

that bornemanite could be transformed to a synthetic form of

bykovaite upon treatment with water."

Thank you very much! Do you known the vital days and months as well as birth city and place of death?

Van,


Sorry, that is all the information I had on Alexandra Vasilyevna Bykova. Nothing on T. A. Kurova.
