和田玉研究的关键问题

Key Problems in Nephrite Research

简要分析了和田玉研究中的一些关键问题,涉及和田玉自然属性和社会属性中的众多领域,包括矿床成因机理、找矿勘探、开发利用、玉与石的分化、古玉溯源及加工工艺、玉的历史作用等方面。有关问题的解决寄希望于相关自然科学与社会科学的深化与发展,更寄希望于自然科学与社会科学的交叉与融合。

This paper briefly analyses some typical problems in studies of nephrite,including many fields of natural attribute and social attribute,such as the genetic mechanism of nephrite deposit,prospecting,exploitation,utilization,the differentiation between jade and rock,the traceability and processing technology of ancient jades,and the importance of jade in Chinese history.The solution to these problems not only depends on the deepening and development of related natural and social sciences,but also depends on the intersection and the integration of natural and social sciences.
