Biography

Ye Lianjun, male, Han nationality, is a native of Rizhao, Shandong Province. He graduated from Beijing University in 1937.

Ye Lianjun has long been engaged in the theory study of the forming of sediment and distribution laws. He organized and presided over, the first domestic sedimentology laboratory and proposed the "terrigenous supply mineralizing theory", "geochronologic purport of sediment mineralizing era", "physical mineralizing enrichment theory of deposit", "multiple factors and multi-stages mineralizing theory" and " biogenic mineralizing theory."

During the early 1950s, Ye, along with Hou Defeng, determined the relationship between the surface high quantivalency manganese oxide and deep manganese carbonate, thus finding the abundant manganese carbonate ore deposit for promoting the development of ferrous metallurgy industry. In the mid 1950s, Ye carried out the study on phosphate rock in China, determining the "event-driven" and multiple factors and multi-stages mineralization process of deposit and he discovered the law of ore deposits might be distributed with the sedimentary facies region belt.

In the 1990s, Ye devoted his research to the study of "biogenic mineralizing," mainly on the types and processes of biogenic mineralizing effect, mineralizing conditions and geologic background and space-time positioning of ore deposit, mineralizing prediction and biogenic mineralizing markers.

Ye is an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
