Abstract

Anisim Efremovich Malakhov, a prominent specialist in the fi eld of geology of ore, non-ore and rare metal deposits of the Urals. For about 30 years he headed the Department of Geology of Ore Deposits and Coal and Non-Metal Deposits of the Faculty of Exploration Geology at the Sverdlovsk Mining Institute. In honor of Anisim Efremovich, a new mineral was named – malakhovite, calcium, magnesium and iron silicate, which was discovered by B. V. Chesnokov in the burnt dumps of the Chelyabinsk coal basin. The International Mineralogical Association did not approve it as a new mineral species, and recently a natural analogue of malachovite, hesinite, was found in Israel.
