?The Chinese character ‘中’ represents the Geological Society of China, ‘土’ and ‘石’ represent the geological qualities, and ‘山’ and ‘水’ represent the internal and external forces of the earth such as orogenic movements, volcanic activities, transgression and regression, and other hydrodynamic phenomena. They also represent the characteristics of the four major geological periods in China. The character ‘石’ for the Paleozoic stratigraphy, ‘水’ for the Paleozoic marine sedimentation, ‘山’ for the Mesozoic orogenic movement, and ‘土’ is the main deposition of the Cenozoic. The four characters reflect the geographical characteristics of China, the west side of the mountains, the east side of the ocean, the south side of the hills and rocky mountains, the north to the loess accumulation is dominated. ‘Stone in the soil’, “soil in the stone”, “water in the mountain”, “mountain in the water” describes a number of basic philosophy of geology.
