Abstract

The Faculty of Human Sciences and Education of Huesca preserves a remarkable collection of geological materials, mainly minerals, that belonged to Lucas Mallada and that was donated in 1925 to its predecessor institution, the Normal School of Teachers, by the heirs of this geologist. This collection has been recently inventoried and studied. An important part of the specimens are related to the work of Mallada as a member of the Geological Map Commission and come from localities where it is currently impossible to obtain samples of this type and some of them can even be considered unique. The valorization of these specimens represents a significant contribution to the history of Spanish geology and to the topographic mineralogy of our country.
