近代以来,随着国门洞开,西方科学家与探险家率先踏入我国攀西大裂谷地区进行所谓的科学考察活动。民国时期,中国的地质学家们也先后进入攀西地区,在地形、地貌、地产等领域取得一系列科研成果。其中在20世纪30-40年代,常隆庆先生曾5次出入攀西地区进行勘察,并在1940年和刘之祥共同发现了攀枝花磁铁矿,为新中国攀枝花地区的开发、建设奠定了坚实的基础。

With the development of China＇s opening- up,western scientists and explorers took the lead in investigating the PanxiRift Valley in the southwest of China.
