description The intense geological and naturalistic activity of Dr. Arnold Heim in various parts of the world, lead him to become an outstanding personality for the time. He obtained a PhD at the University of Zürich. The detailed manuscripts of the Precordillera, Patagonia and other sectors published by A. Heim during his stays in Argentina and Chile are well known. He was designed in 1946, as the first Corresponding Member of the Argentine Geological Society. In addition to his activity in oil prospecting, about 300 scientific publications are recorded; descriptions of the trips are included with complete accounts of flora and fauna and of the inhabitants of the visited regions and their customs, as well as maps and geographical works. An important milestone in his life was the possibility of being part of the first Swiss scientific expedition to the Himalayas, where he head with his disciple A. Gansser. The results were relevant stratigraphic and tectonic observations with the discovery of ophiolitic rocks of the ancient Tethys Sea and the interpretation of a continental collision. In all cases, he has left valuable documentation such as photos, maps and correspondence preserved in the ETH Bibliothek in Zürich. In 1939 with 57 years old arrived in South America. Upon arriving, he is surprised by the overwhelming nature offered by the southern Chilean-Argentine region. The initial objective of his trip was to explore the area of the Northern Patagonian Ice Field and the final destination, ascend Mount San Valentín. He was then hired by the ‘Dirección de Minas’ of Buenos Aires for various geotechnical studies in San Juan and La Rioja, among others. The detailed structural schemes of Barreal, Rinconada, and the San Juan river, are still valid. Along his life Heim was a tireless traveling geologist, who came to mention him as the “Swiss Humboldt”.

La intensa actividad geológica y de naturalista multifacético en diversas partes del mundo, convirtieron al Dr. Arnold Heim en una destacada personalidad para la época. Se formó académicamente en la escuela geológica suiza de Zúrich. Son conocidos los detallados trabajos en la Precordillera, Patagonia y otros sectores publicados durante su estadía en Sudamérica. Fue seleccionado en 1946, como el primer Miembro Correspondiente de la Sociedad Geológica Argentina. Además de la actividad en la prospección de petróleo, publicó unos 300 trabajos científicos, incluyendo descripciones de sus viajes con relatos completos de flora y fauna, y de los habitantes de la región visitada y sus costumbres. Formó parte de la primera expedición científica suiza a los Himalayas, donde realizó junto a su discípulo A. Gansser relevantes observaciones estratigráficas y tectónicas, con el descubrimiento de rocas ofiolíticas como relictos del antiguo Mar de Tethys y la interpretación de una colisión continental. Ha dejado una valiosa documentación de fotos, mapas y correspondencia preservada en la Biblioteca ETH de Zúrich. En 1939 con 57 años llega a Sudamérica, donde se siente sorprendido por la desbordante naturaleza del sur chileno-argentino. El objetivo era explorar la zona del Lago General Carrera-Buenos Aires, el Campo de Hielo Patagónico Norte y el destino final, ascender el Monte San Valentín. Luego fue contratado por la Dirección de Minas de Buenos Aires para estudios geotécnicos en San Juan y La Rioja, entre otros. Sus detallados esquemas estructurales de Barreal, Rinconada y el río San Juan, aún tienen vigencia. Fue un geólogo viajero incansable, a quien se lo llegó a conocer como el "Humboldt suizo".
