Prehistoric archaeologist and paleontologist. Born in Fengnan,Hebei Province. Graduated from the Department of Geology, Beijing University in 1927. Received Ph. D. from Paris University, France in 1937. Research professor, Institute of Vertebrate Paleontology and Paleoanthrolology, Chinese Academy of Sciences.

Pei took charge of and participated in the excavation and investigation in Zhoukoudian, Beijing in 1929 and was the finder of the first skull of Sinanthropus. He confirmed the existence of stoneware and ashes remained by using fire in 1931, which provided an important archaeological basis that Zhoukoudian is a relics of paleoanthropoid.He managed the exploration of the site of Upper Cave Man and obtained a lot of highly valuable fossils and other cultural remains of Upper Cave Man. Since 1949, he was keen on the synthetic research on Mesolithic Age and Neolithic Age and made significant contributions to the development of archaeology of Paleolithic in China.

He became Member of the Chinese Academy of Sciences in 1955.

王竹泉

1891.04.09～1975.07.24

地質學家。河北交河人。1929年獲美國威斯康星大學碩士學位。煤炭部地質司總工程師、研究員兼北京煤炭科學研究院地質所所長。從事地質工作60年，研究成果涉及地質學的許多領域，其中煤田地質的最多，提出了許多獨到的見解。早年提出以重礦物為標志鑒定火成巖區(qū)的觀點；在昌平發(fā)現(xiàn)了新礦物“西湖石”；后對山東、安徽、河北、江西、山西、河南、綏遠（今內蒙古）、陜西、遼寧、湖南、云南和貴州等省主要煤田進行系統(tǒng)調查研究，為以后大規(guī)?？辈榻⒘嘶A。50年代對華南晚二疊世煤田形成條件及分布規(guī)律的研究，具有示范意義。還研究和總結了中國煤的變質規(guī)律，首先提出了煤的接觸變質作用類型，不僅具有實際意義，更在煤田地質理論上做出了積極貢獻。

1957年被選聘為中國科學院院士（學部委員）。

Ore deposit geologist. Born in Jiaohe, Hebei Province.Received MS from the University of Wisconsin, USA in 1929.Chief engineer, Department of Geology, Ministry of Coal Industry, and research professor and director, Institute of Geology, Beijing Academy of Coal Science.

Wang was engaged in geological research for 60 years,during which he studied many fields of geology, especially coal geology, and put forward many unique ideas. In his early geological career, he presented the idea that heavy minerals are taken as marks to distinguish volcanic rocks, discovered the new mineral “hsihutsuite” in Changping County of Beijing,surveyed systematically major coal fields in Shandong, Hebei,Jiangxi, Shanxi, Henan, Suiyuan (present Inner Mongolia),Shaanxi, Liaoning, Hunan, Yunan and Guizhou provinces,and established bases for subsequent large-scale surveys and exploration. In the 1950s, he studied the formation conditions and distribution pattern of Late Permian coal fields in South China, which was of exampling Chinese coal, and he was the first to put forward the contact metamorphic classification of coal, which not only had practical importance in the development of coal, but also made active contributions to the geological theories of coal fields.

He became Member of the Chinese Academy of Sciences in 1957.

馮景蘭

1898.03.09～1976.09.29

礦床學家。河南唐河人。1921年獲美國哥倫比亞大學地質學碩士學位。北京地質學院教授。40年代曾參加川、康、滇三省銅礦勘探及滇緬鐵路沿線礦產(chǎn)調查；50年代在豫西調查中對評價平頂山煤礦和河南鞏縣鋁土礦作了指導工作，參加選定三門峽壩址建議書的編寫工作。對兩廣、陜北以及沈海鐵路、隴海鐵路沿線的地質調查，為這些地區(qū)以后的地質工作奠定了初步基礎。對川、康、滇各省銅礦的成因類型和次生富集作用發(fā)表了有開創(chuàng)性的意見。

1957年被選聘為中國科學院院士（學部委員）。

Mineral deposit geologist. Born in Tanghe, Henan Province. Received MS from the Department of Geology,Columbia University, USA in 1921. Professor, Beijing Geology College.

Feng took part in the exploration of copper ore in Sichuan, Gansu and Yunan provinces and the investigation of minerals along the Yunnan-Burma railway in the 1940s.During the 1950s, he directed the evaluation of Pingdingshan coal mine and bauxite mine in Zhuxian, Henan Province and participated in the compilation of the proposal of site selection for Sanmenxia Dam. He made geological investigations in Guangdong and Guangxi provinces, northern Shaanxi Province and areas along the Shenhai and Longhai railways, which laid a primary foundation for the geological work in these areas.He put forward creative suggestions on the classification of the origin and secondary enrichment of copper ore deposited in Sichuan, Gansu, and Yunnan provinces.

He became Member of the Chinese Academy of Sciences in 1957.
