<DIV><STRONG>To the grieving community for Milka Brodtkorb</STRONG>.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I was told by Dr. Raul Lira that Milka Brodtkorb passed away a few days
ago. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I knew her since the eighties of the last century when I met her during a
conference</DIV>
<DIV>of IAGOD in Ottawa, Canada. She invited me to come to Argentina and do
research</DIV>
<DIV>there on mineralogical aspects. Fruitful, almost 25 years of
cooperation followed, </DIV>
<DIV>resulting in numerous papers. I will never forget this
prosperous time during </DIV>
<DIV>which I learned through Milka a lot about mineralogy in Argentina.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>It was a honor to me to name a rare selenide species from Tuminico, La
Rioja</DIV>
<DIV>Province, which we had detected in 1998 , as “BRODTKORBITE”. So she
and her </DIV>
<DIV>merits will not be never forgotten.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>My prayers for her and the wish of a warm welcome at heaven.</DIV>
