中央地質調查所胚孕於一九一二年,正式成立於一九一六年,已有三十五年的歷史。一九四九年四月二十三日南京解放之前,該所絕大多數人員,堅定的保護着公物,靜待解放。所有圖書、儀器完全無缺的變爲人民財產,這是值得慶幸的。因該所領導問題未能即時解决,在一九四九年的大半年中,陷入保管狀態,除在南京附近作一些短期調查與整理過去的研究調查資料外,工作未能大量開展。今年二月間,中央財經會邀集各地質機關授予調查東北、華北及中南各區的地質鑛產調查工 The Central Geological Survey embryo was pregnant in 1912, was formally established in 1916, has 35 years of history.
