当前我国正在制订或实施的各项矿产资源总量预测评价计划,虽然在基层单位执行时仍属于工程学领域,但就其庞大的规模和深远的社会影响而言,应该属于系统工程的范畴. At present, China’s various mineral resources forecasting and evaluation plans are being formulated or implemented. Although they are still in the field of engineering when the grass-roots units are implemented, they should belong to the category of systems engineering in terms of their large scale and far-reaching social impact.
