Burchard Kranich (c. 1515–1578) (also known as Doctor Burcot) was a mining engineer and physician who came to England from Germany. He was involved in mining ventures in Derbyshire and Cornwall, and in assaying the black ore, thought to be gold-bearing, brought back to England from Baffin Island by Martin Frobisher. He later practised as a physician in London, where he enjoyed a mixed reputation, and is said to have attended Elizabeth I when she contracted smallpox. He is alluded to in several literary works published during the reigns of Elizabeth I and James I.

  • Burchard Kranich, auch bekannt als Doktor Burcot, (* um 1515; † 1578) war ein deutsch-englischer Bergbauingenieur und Arzt. Er stammte aus dem Heiligen Römischen Reich deutscher Nation und war der Leibarzt von Hermann V. von Wied. Gemeinsam mit diesem und den Grafen zu Stolberg war er 1547 u. a. an der Gründung der Gesellschaft der edlen lebendigen selbst gehenden Wasserkunst beteiligt. Nach zunehmenden Misserfolgen ließ er sich in England nieder, wo er in verschiedene Bergbauunternehmen in Derbyshire und Cornwall investierte und nach Gold suchte. Zuletzt kehrte er wieder in seinen alten Beruf als Arzt zurück und praktizierte in London, wo er u. a. Elisabeth I. behandelte. (de)
