MS 205 ÖPIK, ARMIN ALEKSANDER, FAA (1898-1983) Armin Aleksander Öpik was born on 24 June 1898, in Lontova, Estonia. He was educated at the Estonian State University at Tartu, graduating in 1926 in geology and mineralogy. From 1930 to 1944 he was professor of geology and palaeontology at the Estonian State University and was director of the University's geological institute and museum. In 1944, Öpik left Estonia ahead of the advancing Russian armies and spent the next few years in displaced persons' camps in Germany. He came to Australia in 1948 to undertake a position in the then newly-established Commonwealth Bureau of Mineral Resources, in Canberra, where he was for many years the Bureau's senior palaeontologist. He remained at the Bureau as a geologist until his retirement in 1964. In Australia Öpik made a detailed study of the Cambrian and Early Ordovician stratigraphy and palaeontology of northern Australia. BMR Journal acknowledged his scientific contributions in 1985: His discovery of the first Ordovician rocks in the Kimberleys in 1949 opened up the Canning Basin to oil exploration ... [Öpik] extended the basic Scandinavian palaeontological lineage, stretching from Carl von Linne, through Dalman, Angelin, Linnarsson, Broger, and Tullberg, among others, to a multidisciplinary approach. Hence, we see stratigraphy, biostratigraphy, sedimentology, functional morphology and economic geology all integrated during Öpik's working life prior to 1948. And this vast scientific platform, unusual in the early decades of the 20th century, was brought to Australia, for our mutual benefit. Öpik's daughter, Nora Romot, has written that 'spending his childhood and youth living at Kunda and Tallinn Harbour made him an ardent seafarer, a poet romantic, fatalist and pacifist'. He died in Canberra on 15 January 1983.
