Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: A10-ADA
ABICH , OTTO- WILHELM HERMANN VON (18o6-1886),
German
  mineralogist and geologist, was born at Berlin on the 11th of
December
  18o6, and educated at the university in that city. His earliest scientific
work
  related to spinels and other minerals, and later he made
special
  studies of fumaroles, of the
mineral
  deposits around volcanic vents and of the structure of volcanoes. In 1842 he was appointed
professor
  of
mineralogy
  in the university of Dorpat, and henceforth gave attention to the
geology
  and
mineralogy
  of
Russia
 . Residing for some time at
Tiflis
  he investigated the
geology
  of the Caucasus. Ultimately he retired to Vienna, where he died on the 1st of July 1886. The
mineral
  Abichite was named after him.
