It was also the year of the extensive commercial rollout of 5G networks, and the crucial year for China Tower to implement its business transformation and upgrading and the “One Core and Two Wings” strategy. This year has been a challenging year, not only because of the impacts from the COVID-19 epidemic, but also major changes in internal and external situations. Against such a backdrop, China Tower strives to create a new development pattern for high quality growth by accelerating its business transformation and upgrading, working tirelessly to promote the sharing of telecommunications infrastructure, and facilitating the deployment of 5G networks. The Company adhered to its mission of “serving the industry and the society through sharing” at all times. By integrating into the national development strategy, the Company endeavored to serve the society and support the economic development. The Company also fulfilled its social responsibilities and demonstrated commitments while contributing to the collaborative development of the industry. Tong Jilu Chairman of the Board China Tower Corporation Limited 2 Environmental, Social and Governance Report 2020 • China Tower Corporation Limited 3 Chairman’s Statement Strengthening resource sharing to support the implementation of the “Cyberpower” strategy. The development of telecommunications infrastructure is the cornerstone for implementing the strategy of “Cyberpower” and for advancing the national economic growth as well as for the informatization of society. As the “national team” and “main force” in the construction and operation of telecommunications infrastructure, the Company upheld the principle of “prioritizing co-location and sticking to sharing philosophy in building up new site”, focused on shared growth, fully utilized existing sites and social resources, and unified development with coordinated sources to prop up the construction of the world’s largest mobile broadband network in China. As of the end of 2020, the Company had completed a total of 2.8 million tower construction projects, improving the co-location ratio of newly-built towers from 14.3% to 80%, and facilitating the 1.3-fold increase in the total number of sites available to Telecommunication Service Providers (TSPs). Meanwhile, the Company had achieved network coverage over high- speed railway tunnels and subways of more than 26,000 kilometers, and the area of buildings covered by indoor Distribution Antenna System (DAS) business was approximately 4.1 billion square meters. Since the commercialization of 5G networks a year ago, we effectively seized opportunities arising from the implementation of the 5G and new infrastructure strategies, overcame the impacts caused by the epidemic, generously shared existing resources, widely leveraged social resources, innovated flexible service models, worked to lower construction and operating costs, we were hereby able to reduce costs, improve efficiency and create values for the industry. We had received an aggregate of 766,000 5G base station projects demand, 97% of which were satisfied by sharing of existing sites, laying a solid foundation for the large-scale commercial use of 5G networks. Focusing on key sectors to boost the development of digital economy. The new digital economy is taking shape with the advancement of information and communication technologies. The development of a new generation of information and communication technologies represented by the mobile Internet, big data and artificial intelligence, are in full swing, demonstrating that the digital economy is merging with the real economy at an accelerating pace. Leveraging our site resources and strong service capabilities, we firmly seized opportunities created by economic and social transformation and the increased applications of information technology. Through relying on tower resources and the Internet, we were able to transform “telecommunication towers” into “digital towers”. Thus, we managed to develop our capabilities on providing nationwide video surveillance and digital information services, to support the national economy and people’s livelihoods, and to continuously empower the development of the digital economy. We proactively built a platform for socialized energy application through utilizing site resources and expertise in ensuring power supply. We provided “green, safe and convenient” energy services, including battery exchange and power backup to all walks of life, contributed to the optimization of the social energy structure and supported the green and sustainable development of the energy economy. 4 China Tower Corporation Limited • Environmental, Social and Governance Report 2020 Chairman’s Statement Deepening reforms and innovation to lead high-quality development. Embarking on a new development stage, we committed to a new development philosophy and built a new pattern of development. Adhering to high-quality development, by setting innovation as our essential driving force, we built on deepening transformation and market- oriented reforms, implemented the “One Core and Two Wings” strategy, extended the philosophy of resource sharing, and steadily promoted the Company in being an enterprise with the best potential for growth and value creation. Leading by promoting innovation, we concentrated on improving technologies, products, services, procurement and management innovations, escalated the transformation from investment-driven to innovation-driven, and made effective efforts to enhance our competitiveness. We accelerated digital transformation to improve our capabilities of

After the site was mapped in 2001, these two ichnotaxa were considered synonyms of Eubrontes and Anomoepus, respectively, the latter designation being the first identification of this ichnogenus in China. The assemblage indicates a typical Jurassic ichnofauna. The present study reinvestigates the site in the light of the purported new ichnospecies Chuanchengpus shenglingensis that was introduced in 2012. After re- evaluation of the morphological and extramorphological features, C.

  • The New Ichnotaxon Eubrontes Nobitai Ichnosp. Nov. and Other
    Xing et al. Journal of Palaeogeography (2021) 10:17 https://doi.org/10.1186/s42501-021-00096-y Journal of Palaeogeography ORIGINAL ARTICLE Open Access The new ichnotaxon Eubrontes nobitai ichnosp. nov. and other saurischian tracks from the Lower Cretaceous of Sichuan Province and a review of Chinese Eubrontes-type tracks Li-Da Xing1,2* , Martin G. Lockley3, Hendrik Klein4, Li-Jun Zhang5, Anthony Romilio6, W. Scott Persons IV7, Guang-Zhao Peng8, Yong Ye8 and Miao-Yan Wang2 Abstract The Jiaguan Formation and the underlying Feitianshan Formation (Lower Cretaceous) in Sichuan Province yield multiple saurischian (theropod–sauropod) dominated ichnofaunas. To date, a moderate diversity of six theropod ichnogenera has been reported, but none of these have been identified at the ichnospecies level. Thus, many morphotypes have common “generic” labels such as Grallator, Eubrontes, cf. Eubrontes or even “Eubrontes- Megalosauripus” morphotype. These morphotypes are generally more typical of the Jurassic, whereas other more distinctive theropod tracks (Minisauripus and Velociraptorichnus) are restricted to the Cretaceous. The new ichnospecies Eubrontes nobitai ichnosp nov. is distinguished from Jurassic morphotypes based on a very well- preserved trackway and represents the first-named Eubrontes ichnospecies from the Cretaceous of Asia. Keywords: Ichnofossils, Dinosaur footprints, Theropod, Myths 1 Introduction are represented by Brontopodus-type tracks.

  • Distilling Zinc in China: the Technology of Large-Scale Zinc Production in Chongqing During the Ming and Qing Dynasties (AD 1368-1911)
    Distilling Zinc in China: The Technology of Large-Scale Zinc Production in Chongqing During the Ming and Qing Dynasties (AD 1368-1911) Wenli Zhou Thesis Submitted to University College London for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Institute of Archaeology University College London September 2012 1 I, Wenli Zhou confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. 2 Abstract Zinc made a relative late appearance in the metallurgical history of China. As a volatile metal, its production required sophisticated distillation installations. The production of this metal played a special role in both the technological and economic history of Ming and Qing China: as a key constituent of the copper-alloy brass, zinc was employed for coinage and also exported via long-distance maritime trade. Our understanding of Chinese zinc distillation technology has traditionally been limited by a lack of studies of production remains. Recent excavation of zinc smelting sites in Fengdu and Shizhu, Chongqing, provides an excellent opportunity to address this issue. This thesis presents the analyses, technical interpretation and socio-economic contextualisation of the production remains from three sites in Fengdu and one site in Shizhu. Zinc ore, zinc metal, retorts and slag were analysed by optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive spectrometry (SEM-EDS), electron probe micro-analyser with wavelength dispersive spectrometry (EPMA-WDS) and X-ray diffractometry (XRD). Following on a detailed technological reconstruction, some differences were found between the zinc distillation technologies in Fengdu and Shizhu, not only in technical efficiency but also in the organisation of production.
