Shakhmardan Yessenov (August 5, 1927, Bala-Bi village, Shieli District, Qyzylorda Region — August 24, 1994, Almaty) was a Kazakhstani scientist and statesman, Minister of Geology of the Kazakh SSR (1961—1967, 1974–1978), Academician of the KazSSR Academy of Sciences (1967), President of the KazSSR Academy of Sciences (1967—1974), Doctor of Geology and Mineralogy (1970).

Biography

Shakhmardan Yessenov was born in the village of Bala Bi (Shieli District, Qyzylorda Region) on August 5, 1927. He graduated from Qyzylorda Teacher Training College in 1944. In 1949 completed his training as a mining geological engineer at the Kazakh Institute of Mining and Metallurgy (now Satbayev National Technical University). During his 11 years of work in Jezkazgan, rose from a regular geologist to the Chief Geologist and Chief Engineer of Jezkazgan Comprehensive Geological Survey Expedition.

Yessenov's talents propelled his career and in 1960 he became Deputy Minister of Geology of the Kazakh SSR, and Minister the next year at the age of 33, thus becoming the youngest ever Minister in the USSR.

When large deposits of oil and gas were discovered in the Mangyshlak Peninsula in 1962, Khrushchev had the idea of handing the region over to Azerbaijan or Turkmenistan, citing republics substantial experience in oilfield development. Dinmukhamed Kunaev tasked Yessenov with ensuring Mangyshlak would remain a part of Kazakhstan. The issue was discussed at the joint session of the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet and the USSR Council of Ministers behind closed doors. Shakhmardan Yessenov, as the Minister of Geology of the Kazakh SSR, took the floor after Khrushchev's introductory speech and made a compelling case for the need to keep Mangyshlak Region within KazSSR, arguing that the republic had sufficient scientific and manufacturing capabilities to develop it. Kosygin, First Deputy Chairman of the USSR Council of Ministers, together with the majority of attendees supported Yessenov and voted in favor of preserving the status quo of Mangyshlak. This historic decision secured a very important part of Kazakhstan.

In 1965 Yessenov was appointed Deputy Chairman of the Kazakh SSR Council of Ministers to oversee heavy industries and development of resources portfolio for the key sectors of the USSR. In 1967, 39-year old Yessenov was elected an Academician and president of the Academy of Sciences of the Kazakh SSR, and was also appointed Director of the Institute of Geological Sciences named after Satbayev.

He defended his thesis in Moscow in 1970 and became a Doctor of Geology and Mineralogy and received his professorship the same year.

In 1972-1974 Shakhmardan Yessenov served as the Chair of KazSSR Committee on State Awards for Science and Technology and a Fellow of USSR Geographic Society.

In early 1974 Yessenov was again appointed the Minister of Geology of Kazakhstan until 1978 when he joined Kazakh Polytechnic Institute (now National Technical University) where he led the Dept. of Mineral Exploration Methods until his death.

Shakhmardan Yessenov died in August 1994, aged 67, after a protracted illness.
