Li Siguang Geological Science Award

Introduction to Geologist Awards

The Li Siguang Geological Science Award is the highest-level honorary award in China's geological industry. It was established in January 1989. This award is named after the world famous scientist and geologist Li Siguang. The "poor oil" fallacy has made tremendous contributions to China's scientific and geological undertakings, inspiring Chinese geologists to dedicate themselves to the construction of the motherland. There are four awards in the Li Siguang Geological Science Award: Li Siguang Field Geologist Award, Li Siguang Geologist Researcher Award, Li Siguang Geological Teacher Award, and Li Siguang Special Award. The Li Siguang Field Geologist Award is used to reward those who have made outstanding achievements in field geological work, including long-term field geological exploration work, major new discoveries, important new understandings in the work, or outstanding completion of a certain geological prospecting task. Those who have significant economic and social benefits; who have made suggestions on national and regional economic construction through field geological work and who have proven to have significant social or economic benefits through practice; who creatively organize and lead field geological work and are highly effective.

The Li Siguang Geological Science Researcher Award is used to reward those who have made important contributions in the field of geological scientific research, including those who have made important new ideas or discoveries in a certain field or field of geology, or enriched, developed and improved certain items after summing up Theorists in the field of geology; in the work of geological experiments, there are new inventions and innovations, instruments and equipment and significant economic or social benefits, or some new technology, methods, and theories; through scientific research, geological work and resources Those who have made important suggestions for exploration, development and utilization and have achieved significant social and economic benefits; creatively carry out scientific research organization management and make important contributors.

The Li Siguang Geological Teacher Award is used to reward those who have been engaged in geological education for a long time. They have outstanding performance in teaching and educating others, and have achieved outstanding results in teaching and scientific research.

Li Siguang Special Award. Specially used to reward geologists who have made special contributions to geological work, awarded by the Li Siguang Geological Science Committee according to the actual situation.

The winners of the Li Siguang Geological Science Award are first recommended by the grassroots, and submitted to the committee 6 months before the award after the preliminary evaluation of their respective competent departments, that is, before April 26, the application and recommendation materials are provided to the committee. The field geology and geology under the committee The three evaluation teams of scientific research and geological teachers conduct group evaluation, propose a list of candidates, report to the committee for selection, and determine the winners. The Li Siguang Award is evaluated every two years, and one person can only be awarded once as a lifetime honorary award. The number of rewards each time is controlled to about 15 people, of which the number of fieldworkers winning must not be less than 50%.

The awards are set for Li Siguang's birthday, which is October 26. In 1989, Li Siguang's 100th birthday was awarded for the first time. Since its establishment, up to the 7th Li Siguang Award for Geological Science in 2001, a total of 117 geotechnical workers have received this honor.
