Glück Auf
Glückauf (alternative spelling ''Glück auf''; also, as an exclamation: ''Glück auf!'') is the traditional German miners' greeting. It describes the hope of the miners: ''"es mögen sich Erzgänge auftun"'' ("may lodes f orebe opened") which is short for ''"Ich wünsche Dir Glück, tu einen neuen Gang auf"'' ("I wish you luck, open a new lode"), because, when mining for ore, without prospecting, no-one could predict with certainty whether the miners' work would lead to a reward. The greeting also expressed the desire that miners would return safely from the mine after their shift. Today it is still a common form of greeting in the Ore Mountains region of eastern Germany and in the Ruhr area, specifically Bochum, which is home to the German Mining Museum (''Deutsches Bergbau-Museum''). Emergence The greeting emerged in the Saxon Ore Mountains towards the end of the 16th century, when the miners still entered and left the mines on foot using ladders (''Fahrten'') or man en ...

Biography Eugen Glückauf (later anglicised to Glueckauf) was born on 9 April 1906 in Eisenach, Germany, the son of Bruno Glückauf, a clothier, and Elsa Pretzfelder. At school, Glückauf was particularly adept at maths. His university training began at the University of Berlin but he switched to the Technische Hochschule at Charlottenburg, where he graduated in 1930 and, after two years' research, he gained his doctorate ( Dr Ing). With the political and economic climate in Germany worsening, Glückauf left for England where, at first, life for him was not easy either. After failed first attempts, an introduction by Professor Freundlich at University College led him to Professor F. A. Paneth, who was looking for an assistant at the Royal College of Science (Imperial College). The first research problem he tackled involved analytical determination of helium in air. ...
