THE GRANITISATION OF CHINA

If they are separated according to their geological age and reported on amap,the post-Palaeozoic granites of China seem to betray a regular distributionin space and time.They emerge along a definite net of tectonic fissures; andthey shift gradually eastward toward the pacific margin of the land. This peculiar distribution suggests that granitisation is a specific andperennial geological process,possibly playing a fundamental part in the buildingof continents.     

ON THE PRESUMABLE EXISTENCE OF A WORLD-WIDE SUB-ARCTIC SHEET OF HUMAN CULTURE AT THE DAWN OF THE NEOLITHIC

1. The facts. On a particular day of July 1931,during the Haardt-Citroentrans-asiatic Expedition,I happened to collect,near Chikuchinze,in theTurfan area (Chinese Turkestan),two perfectly similar,rostrated     

THE NEW PETROLOGY

I suppose that one is not far wrong in saying that Petrology is thescience of rocks.But we have not made ourselves very clear by saying it.To the average student of the subject.who must judge from what he is taught,     

SOME CORRELATIONS BETWEEN THE GEOLOGY OF CHINA PROPER AND THE GEOLOGY OF MONGOLIA

During the summer of 1930 we had. thanks to the Central Asiatic Expedition led by Dr. R.C. Andrews, a splendid opportunity for studying the geological formations of SE. Gobi, along the Kalgan-Urga trail, South and     

ON SOME TRACES OF VERTEBRATE LIFE IN THE JURASSIC AND TRIASSIC BEDS OF SHANSI AND SHENSI.

The thick and widely exposed Jurassic and Triassic beds of Western Shansi and Northern Shensi are extraordinarily barren of animal fossils. With the exception of the ganoid fishes found by C. C. Wang, Licent and Teilhard in the special horizon (jasper-bearing limestone) which underlies the     

PALAEONTOLOGICAL NOTES

During the winter of 1925, E. Licent and G. Barbour collected, along the Sangkan. ho, in the Qnadrula beds of the Sanmen series, a number     

NEW DISCOVERIES IN CHOUKOUTIEN 1933-1934~1

Since the publication, in June 1933, of "Fossil Man in China", up to the present date (September 1934), a series of new observations have been made in the course of the Chonkoutien excavations. Although these new     

THE LATE CENOZOIC FORMATIONS OF S.E.SHANSI

Up to 1931 nothing was positively known concerning the Cenozoicformations eventually preserved in S.E.Shansi.The large area bounded by     

GEOLOGY OF NORTHERN CHIHLI AND EASTERN MONGOLIA.

During the last spring (April-May 1924), we have, F. Licent and I crossed the Northern Chihli and the eastern part of the Inner Mongolia.
