Antonio D'Achiardi (born November 28, 1839 in Pisa ; died December 10, 1902 , ibid) was an Italian mineralogist .

Act

D'Achiardi was the son of the lawyer Giuseppe D'Achiardi and his wife Virginia (née Ruschi). He was the nephew of the agronomist Pietro Cuppari (1816-1870) and a cousin of the medical doctor Cesare Studiati (1821-1894). He studied natural sciences at the University of Pisa , where he received his doctorate on June 13, 1859 . On November 24th of that year he became an assistant in the chemistry laboratory of Sebastiano De Luca. A chemical experiment in 1860, which ended in an explosion, resulted in him being nearly blind, so he turned to geology and mineralogy to study with Giuseppe Meneghini . On January 18, 1861, he was appointed assistant to the chair of mineralogy at the University of Rome . He later became a professor at the University of Pavia; in 1874 he became associate professor and in 1876 full professor of mineralogy at the University of Pisa. In his work he mainly described minerals from Tuscany. He also carried out petrographic examinations with the polarizing microscope .

He was also active in the field of fossil science, so his name appears in 1875 in the "Leptaxis multisinuosa D'Achiardi" and some fossilized coral species. With the Bibliografia mineralogica, geologica e paleontologica della Toscana, he wrote a compilation on minerals, geology and paleontology in Tuscany.

D'Achiardi was married to Marianna (nee Camici), the couple had two sons, the mineralogist Giovanni D'Achiardi (1872-1944) and the painter and art historian Pietro D'Achiardi (1879-1940).

His son Giovanni discovered a new mineral on the island of Elba in 1905 , which he named " Dachiardite " (also D'Achiardite ) in honor of his father . The name Dachiardite has stood for a mineral series (mixed series) since 1997, consisting of Dachiardit-Ca , Dachiardit-K and Dachiardit-Na .

From 1866 to 1902 he published numerous scientific papers, such as I metalli, loro minerali e miniere (1883), Guida al corso di litologia (1888) or Guida al corso di mineralogia (1900).
