摘要
本文在考察了对中国古代矿床(物)学思想的认识现状后,对中国古代文献关于矿物、岩石、矿床的认识是否具有思想成分提出了三条认识标准:是否对客观现象和经验认识进行了归纳,上升成为普遍规律;是否探索了形成原因;是否形成观念、概念和判断,作为进一步认识和预测的准则。“地气”是中国古代成岩成矿作用思想的中心概念。
In our essay analysis are made of some ancient Chinese treatise on rock, mineral and ore deposit to determine which part of them reached the level of thought; and then, the present authors suggest three criteria of evaluation and understanding it, (1) whether it induced about geological phenomenon and empirical observation and madethem to be universal pattern; (2) whether it explored the cause for their formation; (3) whether any idea's, concepts and judgements were put forward and taken as the basis and principle of guiding further research and forecast. It is also suggested that the 'Earth Air' is the central idea of ancient Chinese thought on metallogeny and petrogeny, and its content is entirely different from that advocated by Aristotle.
