Vladimir Shcherbina Explained
Vladimir Vital'evich Shcherbina (1907 - 1978) was a prominent Soviet geochemist and mineralogist.[1] He was a student of Alexander Fersman.[2]
In 1931, he led a team from the USSR Academy of Sciences in the mineralogical examination of the Lovozero Massif.[3]
Shcherbinaite, a naturally occurring mineral form of vanadium pentoxide, is named for him.[4]
MAIK Nauka has deemed him an "outstanding" geochemist, and in 1998 sponsored a memorial lecture in his honor.[5]
