Humboldt Museum

Professor Elhuyar often ordered instruments for the School of Mines through von Humboldt, who selected and purchased them without any commission. In return for this courtesy he gave the Baron much valuable information for his Political Essay on New Spain (13, 16). Von Humboldt later presented to European museums numerous specimens of Mexican minerals which this Spanish scientist had given him. [Pg.295]

Dr. Ernst Wittich, German Ambassador to Mexico, pointed out that Baron von Humboldt was also led into the same error, for the specimen in the Museum fur Naturkunde in Berlin is labeled in the Baron s handwriting Brown lead ore from the veins of Zimapin in northern Mexico. Lead chromate. M. del Rio thought he had discovered a new metal in it, which he named erythronium, then panchromium later he realized that it was ordinary chromium. The label was later corrected by Gustav Rose to read Vanadiumbleierz (vanadium lead ore) (29). [Pg.394]
