In the Bolivian Embassy in Beijing, a warm award ceremony is underway. With a smile on his face, the Bolivian Ambassador to China solemnly presented the "Bolivia-China Friendship Award" to a Chinese expert. The spectacled, thin but energetic expert received the trophy with pride and gratitude in his eyes.
Academician Mao Jingwen was awarded the Bolivia-China Friendship Award
On March 20, the Bolivian Embassy in China held an award ceremony, and Mr. Hugo Ciales, Ambassador of Bolivia to China, presented the Bolivia-China Friendship Award to Academician Mao Jingwen of the Institute of Mineral Resources of the Chinese Academy of Geological Sciences on behalf of the Bolivian government, in recognition of Academician Mao Jingwen's outstanding contributions to promoting academic exchanges between the two countries and guiding the development of enterprises.
Academician Mao Jingwen had a conversation with Mr. Hugo Siles, Ambassador of Bolivia to China
Mao Jingwen is an academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering and a geological and mineral prospector of mineral deposits. The reporter learned that in recent years, Academician Mao Jingwen has organized internationally renowned experts to jointly carry out systematic research on the polymetallic metallogenic law of tin, copper, silver and polymetallic in Bolivia through the implementation of international (regional) cooperation and exchange projects and key projects of the International Natural Science Foundation of China, and has achieved a number of innovative results, and published a number of high-quality papers in international authoritative academic journals such as Geology. In 2023, Academician Mao Jingwen will lead a scientific research team to Bolivian universities and government agencies to give lectures and lectures, publicize the latest research results, and investigate a number of mining enterprises, so as to provide constructive suggestions for the development of enterprises, and at the same time promote mainland enterprises to carry out prospecting and exploration and investment and development in Bolivia, and promote local economic development through enterprise cooperation.
This award is not only a full affirmation of the work done by Academician Mao Jingwen, but also represents the high recognition of the international community for mainland scientific research workers to promote high-quality international exchanges and cooperation.
Academician Profile
Mao Jingwen (December 1956-), elected as an academician of the Chinese Academy of Engineering in 2017, is a mineral deposit geology and mineral exploration scientist.
Academician Mao Jingwen is a native of Yuncheng, Shanxi. He graduated from the Graduate School of the Chinese Academy of Geological Sciences in 1988 with a doctorate degree. He is currently a researcher at the Institute of Mineral Resources of the Chinese Academy of Geological Sciences, the director of the Key Laboratory of Metallogenesis and Resource Evaluation of the Ministry of Natural Resources, the director of the Mineral Deposits Professional Committee of the Geological Society of China, and the deputy director of the Institute of Mineral Resources of the Chinese Academy of Geological Sciences and the chairman of the International Association of Mineral Deposit Genesis.
Academician Mao Jingwen has long been committed to the research of ore deposit model and metallogenic law and prospecting and exploration, and in view of the large-scale intraplate metallogenic events in the Yanshan period in the eastern part of the mainland, by cracking the temporal and spatial distribution of metallogenic metallogenesis, the distribution of materials and the structural control law, he innovatively constructed the intraplate metallogenic dynamic model, developed the metallogenic theory, and effectively guided the prospecting and exploration deployment. The 10 groups of ore deposit combination models proposed by him have been used by relevant geological exploration units and mining companies for prospecting and exploration, and have promoted major breakthroughs in hidden ore prospecting. As the first winner, Academician Mao Jingwen won one second prize of the National Natural Science Award, two second prizes of the National Science and Technology Progress Award, and four first and second prizes of the Provincial and Ministerial Science and Technology Awards. In 2018, he received the Lifetime Achievement Award from the International Association for the Genesis of Mineral Deposits.
