* Bindtbánya, December 24, 1880 – † Budapest, August 24, 1940 / geologist, paleontologist, corresponding member of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences (1927) ; ; He obtained a mining engineering degree from the Mining Academy in Selmecbánya. From 1903 until his death, he worked as a geologist at the Geological Institute, and for a while he was the deputy director of the Institute. His main field of activity was mining geology. He studied the mining geological conditions of the Bihar Mountains, the Radna Mountains, the Dobsina and Aranyida in the Felvidék, and made detailed geological surveys of the brown coal deposits of Ajka, Dorog, Tokod and Tatabánya. His paleontological research on the nummulins of the Eocene age is also significant. Between 1910 and 1912, with the help of Tamás Szontagh and Mór Pálfy, he first demonstrated the cover structure within the Carpathians with his investigations in the Bihar Mountains. In 1912–15, he first described the Paleozoic of the Gömör–Szepesi Ore Mountains, and in 1915, the tectonic cover structures of the Vepor Mountains and the Spiš Mountains. In 1917–1918, he recognized the bauxites of the Bihar Mountains. ; ; His main works: ; Mining geological conditions of Aranyida, 1912, ; Introduction to the study of nummulines and assilines, 1924, ; Geological conditions of the Dobsina area, 1935, ; Geological conditions of the Bihar and Béli Mountains, 1939.
