Theodor Grotthuss (1785–1822), as many other talented scholars, made a number of discoveries and accumulated new information not only in his own area, but also in adjacent fields of science. The studies of Smardonė mineral spring carried out by Grotthuss in Lithuania should be considered to be a lucky chance for hydrogeochemistry formed in the 20th century, since he not only created new water analysis methods, but also revealed the genesis of water chemistry and the occurrence of hydrogen sulphide in the water. He foresaw this phenomenon to take place in the aquifers; later studies and modern achievements of hydrogeochemistry confirmed its universal character. In 2005, featuring the 220th birthday of Grotthuss, there was a good opportunity to recall this scientific genius who worked far from famous centres of science, used self-made laboratory
equipment, but managed to deserve recognition by European scholars.
