Svetolik Radovanović (Prćilovica, Serbia, 23 March 1863 – Belgrade, Kingdom of Yugoslavia, 17 July 1928) was a Serbian state geologist, a member of the Serbian Royal Academy, a professor at the University of Belgrade, and the Minister of National Economy of the Kingdom of Serbia (1904-1905). With Jovan Žujović, he began collecting data on earthquakes, therefore, initiating the development of seismology in Serbia.

Career

At the election assembly on 5 February 1897, he was elected a corresponding member of the Serbian Royal Academy (SANU), and on 31 January 1902, he became a regular member. He is the founder of Serbian hydrogeology. He reformed the Serbian mining and forestry legislation, and in 1892, together with the geologist Jovan Žujović, he founded the Serbian Geological Society. As a minister, he passed the first rules of the mining and fraternal treasury for the insurance of miners, established Sunday-holiday schools for apprentices and issued the first yearbook of the mining department of the Ministry of Economy. His works on the study of Jurassic creations in eastern Serbia are well known.
