- Abstract
Felipe Bauzá Rávara, son of the famous sailor Felipe Bauzá Cañas, was trained at the Madrid School of Civil Engineers (1820-1822), at the Sorbonne University (1824-1828), also carrying out the access preparation a small attendance at the Almadén Mining Academy (1828-1829). Due to his curriculum, he was selected to study in Europe, being sent, thanks to the efforts of Fausto Elhuyar, to the prestigious Freiberg Bergakademie (1830-1834). It was intended to prepare future teachers for the new School of Mines (1836). As the teaching positions were limited, and the candidates of very high level, Felipe Bauza was left out of the project. After being commissioned look for artesian water in Castilla-León (1835-1836), he went on to occupy complicated professional positions, as a member of the mining corps, in the mining districts of Almadén (1836-1838) and Linares (1838-1841). In later years he had quieter destinations, being able to dedicate himself with greater determination to Earth Sciences. We study in this paper his professional career and scientific contributions made during his early years.
