Previous presidents, vice presidents and meeting sites

From the 16th year of the Republic of China to the 33rd year of the Republic of China, the presidents, vice presidents and venues of the Association are listed in Table-1

Table-1 Overview of China Mining and Metallurgical Engineering Society before the victory of the Anti-Japanese War

After the establishment of the society, it can be seen that there is no clubhouse and a fixed meeting place. The meeting place follows the premises of the staff of the society, and the address is uncertain. Since the founding of the Republic of China in the 16th year (1927) to the 22nd year of the Republic of China (1933), there are four places in Beiping's meeting place and the publication and publication of the journal. The author found from the original members' membership record that except for the temporary mining association, the rest of the meeting site is about the member's residence or work place. For example, No. 4, Lushanmen Street, Beiping is the contact address of the governor of the Association, Gu Yu, No. 4, Xiaohuashuijing, Donghuamen, Peking, is the address of the Standing Committee of the Compilation Committee, Qi Hehe (self-defeating). In the afternoon of the 10th year of the Republic of China (1929), on the afternoon of January 10th, the 12th Council Standing Meeting of the Society was held at No. 27, Pingcang Alley, Nanjing. There will be 6 members of Yanzhuang, Weng Wenxuan, Zhang Yuou, Sun Changke, Zeng Yangyu and Hu Boyuan. The regular meeting decided: "The site of the meeting should be moved to Nanjing, and the No. 27 of Pingcang Lane will be tentatively set up as the clubhouse." From this time to the 22nd year of the Republic of China (1933), there were more than 6 venues in Nanjing, Nanjing Dragon King. No. 7 Temple Hall Lane is the residence of the president Yan Zhuang, who used to be the meeting place. Until the 23rd year of the Republic of China (1934) - the fifth year of the Republic of China (1936), the rental of No. 41 Meiyuan New Village, Peiyu Temple, Nanjing, allowed the Society to have a relatively stable meeting place. However, due to the renting, it is still inconvenient; it is through the donation funds of the mines to purchase 15 acres of land in the northwest of Jingnan City, in order to prepare for the construction of permanent clubs, but it is not possible to start construction, that is, twenty-sixth in the Republic of China. In the year of the anti-Japanese war, this association moved to Chongqing. The 9 presidents and vice presidents of the Institute, except for Zeng Yang and Chen Lifu joined the association in 1928, and all others were members of the Institute.

           In this period, we learned to increase the publications of the society, expand the distribution, hold a well-prepared academic annual meeting every year, develop steadily, and recruit new members. This is a period of great history in the history of this association. The clubhouse No. 41 of Meiyuan New Village shall be related to the National Government Construction Committee. The publication of this Council shall be handled by the Construction Committee Sun Changke, Qin Yu (Hui Wei) and Shi Weixin. At the time of the spread of the war, "all the files of the Association were moved within the committee, the China Council for Economic and Social Affairs was reorganized, and the books of the cases were also transferred...." The Construction Committee was incorporated into the Ministry of Economic Affairs in the 27th year of the Republic of China (1938).

　　In the 31st year of the Republic of China (1942), "Mining and Metallurgy" was re-published in Chongqing, Sichuan. The meeting site is located at No. 26, Niujiao, Chongqing. Zhu Yulun, director of the Institute of Mining and Metallurgy, is the editor-in-chief of the Society's Compilation Committee. The Institute of Mining and Metallurgy of the Ministry of Economic Affairs was established in March of the 27th year of the Republic of China (1938). The site of the rotation was located at No. 2 Tianfu Road, Baimiaozi, Dongchuan, Chongqing. The "Review of Mining and Metallurgy", "The Call for Papers", said: "Please send the manuscript to the Compilation Committee of the Institute of Mining and Metallurgy of the Dongmiao Baimiaozi Economic Department." It can be seen that the Institute and the Institute of Mining and Metallurgy are closely dependent on personnel and meetings.

Judging from the author's number of articles, Cao Chengke has a maximum of 11 articles (including 1 translation, 1 collaboration with Wu Kezhen), 8 Hu Boyuan (including 1 collaboration with Weng Wentao and Feng Jinglan), 8 虞 and 寅, Xu Shizhuang, Sun Changke, Liang Zongding each has 6 articles, Zhang Huiruo, Zeng Zengcai (including 1 translation), Wei Shoukun (including 1 collaboration with Liu Chengyan), 5 articles, Wang Chongyou, Li Baoling, Xie Jiarong (including 1 with Cheng Yuqi) and 4 articles by Deng Liming.

Before the war, Chinese society experienced a period of stability and revitalization in the past decade, and the consumption intensity of mineral resources increased rapidly. The author makes preliminary statistics on the content of this part of "Mining and Metallurgy", and sees that his report has broad vision and can make comments and reviews from a high level and professional development macro perspective, including "the status of domestic and foreign mining, domestic mines and The article on mining history is the most. The topic is concerned with the development trend of the world's mining industry and the decision-making methods of mine resource development, and also reports on the domestic large and medium-sized mine dynamics and mining methods. For example, in 1927, Xie Jiarong's "China's Yellow Iron Ore and Sulfur Sulphur Business", Gu Yu's "Review of Foreigners' Investment in China's Mining Industry", Hu Boyuan's "An Overview of the Japanese Steel Industry" in 1930, is a masterpiece of such articles. Wang Chongyou, published in 1928, wrote "The History of China's Mining and Metallurgy Industry", reviewed the history of China's minerals and metallurgy 50 years ago, and reviewed the introduction of gold, copper, iron, tin, lead, zinc and other minerals from Western smelting technology for 50 years. The academic value of the process and mining status is extraordinary.

During this period, the article “Mineral Exploration in Mines” ranked second in quantity, reflecting a golden period of development of China's geological undertakings. During this period, the geological community planned and completed a series of major developments: the Geological Research Institute of the Academia Sinica and the geological survey institutions of some provinces were established, in addition to the traditional dominant minerals for the exploration of iron, copper, lead, zinc, coal and other mineral resources. In addition, its tentacles have involved oil, natural gas, aluminum, chromium, etc., and the survey area has also been greatly expanded. In 1928, Zhu Tingjun's "Silver Minerals in the Xisha Islands" elaborated on the formation, chemical composition and reserves of non-metallic minerals in southern Xinjiang. In 1929, the distribution and production of Nanman Minerals in Akasaka Akihiko, The local geological profile, the occurrence and reserves of deposits, etc. reflect the dependence of colonial industrial development on geological mineral resources. Since the 19th year of the Republic of China (1930), China's geological journals have published reports on geological minerals along the railway. "Mining and Metallurgy" has published Feng Jinglan's "Geological Minerals along the Shenyang-Shenhai Railway", and learned to issue a single book.

It is worth mentioning that since the 17th year of the Republic of China (1928), the Japanese have used oil shale resources in Liaoning and Jilin to establish oil shale refineries in Fushun and Huadian. Almost at the same time, "Mining and Metallurgy" published Hu Boyuan's "Oil Shale Industry and Fushun Oil Shale" article. In addition to introducing the process of oil shale retorting, Fushun Coal Mine has been operated by Japanese people for a long time, and huge oil shale resources are also occupied. Deeply anxious. Since then, "Mining and Metallurgy" has published 4 oil and gas articles, discussing the oil and gas in Shaanxi Yanchang Petroleum and Sichuan Zigong. The oil industry is still in a very small state.

The article "Building, Organization and Labor Relations of Mining Enterprises" is the third. In 1927, Liang Zongding (Gong Zhou)'s "Benxihu Coal Mine Company's recent wave of documentary", in 1932 Zhu Shizhen's "Construction Committee finishing in Changxing Coal Mine" and other articles reported on mine construction dynamics, analysis and comments, for the industry's attention.

In addition to the above three categories, metal smelting, raw material preparation and metallurgical machinery are also introduced. In 1934, Chen Dashen's "Twisted" was published, introducing the instrument that was introduced to China to measure the second derivative of gravity.

In addition, since the "Mr. Sun Peizhang's biography" was published in 1929, it has a biographical introduction to the late members and industry scholars, leaving a precious sum for the history of the subject and the study of the characters.

The "Mining and Metallurgy" re-issued during the Anti-Japanese War was attached to the Institute of Mining and Metallurgy of the Ministry of Economic Affairs. The editor-in-chief and deputy editor-in-chief was appointed by Bai Yulun, the director of the Institute of Mining and Metallurgy and the director of the experimental ironmaking plant, and Wei Zhengwei. In the fifth issue of the re-issue, the third issue is the album of Lanzhou and Guilin Annual Meeting. Probably because of the lack of manuscripts, it will become a professional publication of the Institute. The scope of the subject group has narrowed, and the articles on steel metallurgy and metallurgical production processes have increased, ranking first, followed by mineral processing. The article on mine geological exploration has been greatly reduced compared with that before the war, but there are also pioneering and important achievements. In 1943, the Central Research Institute Nan Yanzong (part-time) and Wu Leibo discovered uranium phosphate in the Bucheon, Zhongshan and Hexian areas of Guangxi. In 1944, "Mining and Metallurgy" published the article "The Discovery of the Uranium Mine in the Fuhezhong District of Guangxi Province", which was the first geological report of the discovery of uranium mines in China, and was concerned by the ruling and the opposition.

In the 23rd year of the Republic of China (1934), the Society published the "China Mining and Metallurgical Engineering Society Monthly", with a monthly issue of 16 pages, ranging from 7, 8 to 30 pages per issue. The editorial intention of the monthly magazine is obviously that the briefing style is fast and flexible. Generally, each member reports a recent academic newsletter or paper, and the rest of the page is used to publish short, easy-to-read, informative conference reports, notices, and members' news. It also has a monthly income and expenditure comparison table and a deceased member. Wait for the column. The publication of the monthly magazine learned that during the pre-war period, the editorial committee took the opportunity to adjust the editorial ideas, centralized the rigor and integrity of academic journals, and reported on the dynamics of the society and active members in the monthly magazine. This is a good measure for invigorating and driving the work of the entire society and expanding the influence of the society. In the twenty-fourth year of the Republic of China (1935), the monthly issue was published in two months. "On the publications, there are two kinds of publications in this Council. One is the "Mineral and Mining Association" and the first is the "Mineral and Metallurgical Monthly". The monthly publication is actually a bimonthly publication. It is published every two months and until August of the same year. In the fourth period, it will be released until the fifth period in October. The publication of the monthly magazine has not lasted until the 25th year of the Republic of China (1936). The situation is unknown. Zhang Erping has only found seven issues of the China Mining and Metallurgical Engineering Monthly published in 1934 and 1935 from several libraries in Beijing.

The book published in the book is: In 1930, the special issue No. 1 and No. 2 of the Society were respectively Xue Gui, director of the Department of Mining and Metallurgy of Northeastern University, and the International Minerals Issue. Muling Coal Mine (now Heilongjiang Jixi Mining Bureau)麒(Sun Yueqi) is the documentary of Jilin Muling Coal Mine. In 1931, Feng Jinglan's "Geological Minerals along the Shenyang-Shenhai Railway"; in 1934, Zhu Xingzhong (Xingzhuang), which will be renewed, will be published in the "Summary of Hebei Mines". In June 1934, the Society published the "Handbook of China Mining and Metallurgical Engineering Society".

There are 5 issuing offices before the war: the No. 41 Club of Meiyuan New Village, Peiyu Temple, Nanjing, the Geological Survey of No. 9 of the Xicheng Bingma, Beiping, the Beiping Branch of the Beiping Xiaotian Water Wells Society, and the Chongqing Beiyang Institute of Technology Cao Chengke, Hankou Industry Wang Zuochen of the Ministry of Commodity Inspection (should be Mr. Wang Chongyou, then Director of the Commodity Inspection Bureau. Zhang Erping.)
