British geologist From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
George William Lamplugh (8 April 1859 – 9 October 1926) was a British geologist.[1] He was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society in 1905 and won the Wollaston Medal of the Geological Society in 1925.[2] He was awarded the Bigsby Medal in 1901.[3]
Between 1892 and 1897, Lamplugh made the first official geological map of the Isle of Man under the auspices of the British Geological Survey.[1] His original observations and field maps are kept at the British Geological Survey in Edinburgh. Hand-painted 'clean' copies of his map sheets are housed at the Manx Museum on the Isle of Man.[4]
