The Great Developments and Achievements in Geophysical Prospecting Techniques in China During the Past Decade: Communist China.

Abstract

Whether it be in the scope of activities, the rise of the technological level or the increase in actual prospecting effectiveness, the development of Geophysical work in China has been unusually rapid during the past decade. The revival by the socialist regime of New China of a scientific technique almost forgotten by Old China amply demonstrates the party's and Government's interest in and support of scientific technology. Geophysical prospecting represents a new phase in techniques of Geological prospecting in the sense that physical science is utilized to help locate ore deposits and Geological features hidden from view; without this approach the amount of minerals that could be discovered by mankind would be very limited. Hence, the importance of geophysical prospecting.
