Arthur Lakes, an English naturalist who came to Colorado in the 1870s, helped establish the modern American field of geology. Lakes, along with his students and colleagues at Colorado School of Mines, discovered hundreds of dinosaur fossils, and his research on mining and minerals proved essential to the mining industry in the American West.
