Which used notations that are no longer in use today. To the correspondence of some minerals with species then unknown, but discovered later. To the use of modern analytical techniques to confirm or rule out specimen names, etc. In short, a long exercise of knowledge that has given me many hours of learning and satisfaction. One of the crystallographic annotations from the de Mineral Collection Some specimens in the collection receive unusual or outdated names. How have you managed to identify them correctly? Benjamín: Many names of minerals were already known in 1835. Others have changed and do not correspond to the original names. Finally, many others did not exist yet and were discovered later . The correct identification, not yet completed and which may give some surprises, has been based on consulting Mineralogy books of the time, on the localities of origin and on modern analytical techniques.
L must thank the help provided by the Spanish Gemological Institute, which analyzed several specimens with Raman spectroscopy , also to Professor César , from the University of , and to the geologist Borja de Cell Phone Number List a family descendant of the illustrious engineer who formed the collection. You have included in the book the “Album of remembrance and gratitude to the people who have enriched my collection”, a document that accompanied the collection. It details the thanks to people who, in some way, contributed to expanding the collection of de minerals. Who are these people? Benjamín: This relationship, very rare in ancient collections, has allowed us to relate the samples to illustrious mineralogists , such as Breithaupt, who signed many of the labels; , who analyzed and named some specimens, or Herder. Also many Spaniards, companions of Sainz de Baranda in Freiberg, such as Amar de la Torre , Gómez Pardo , Bauzá , Parga, , Atocha and Ezquerra del Bayo . Illustrious pensioners from other countries, such as Butenieff, son of an ambassador of the Tsar of Russia, or Brandt, son of the Marquis of , a very important nobleman of the Brazilian empire. Jesús: Almost all of them are classmates and friends, like Gómez-Pardo, Amar de la Torre, del Bayo, with whom he surely exchanged or donated copies
There are also professors or engineers in the field who would do the same, such as Fernando , A. or C. . had two characteristics: he was very well connected because he was the son of who he was and, at that time, he was a convinced liberal . You have to look there. Fluorite. Freiberg, Saxony. 4x3cm. Photo M. Sanchís What purpose does the book “The Sainz de Collection” serve? Benjamín: The book has no other purpose than to make fans aware of the existence of this valuable collection . There is no profit motive, the number of copies is necessarily small, and it will be given away to whoever requests it, as long as there are copies. It will also be posted on the web so that everyone can download it, if they wish. Jesus, in your case it is not the first time that you immerse yourself in the study of a historical collection: you already wrote the book “The Philippine Collection”, which is housed in the Don Felipe de Borbón y Grecia Mining Historical Museum. What are the main parallels between both collections, and what are their differences? Jesús: I think these are two very different collections . Except that both were made in the 19th century, that they have been preserved almost complete with their catalogs and that Isidro Sainz de Baranda participates in both .
