Как академик СССР ОТКРЫЛ крупнейшее месторождение мира: ФЕРСМАН за ПОЛЯРНЫМ КРУГОМ

Alexander Fersman was a Soviet academician, geochemist, and mineralogist who discovered the world's largest apatite deposit in the Khibiny Mountains and spent his life searching for strategic raw materials for the USSR. His contributions to the atomic project, uranium expeditions, and unprotected work with radioactive minerals were classified for seventy years. The truth about the value of his discoveries and the real cause of his death at age sixty-one only became known in the 2000s. Sources: 1. Fersman, A.E., "Memories of Stone."
