Cores and samples include rock core and debris, polished thin sections, samples, all other specimen, and all data related to these materials. It is an important information source for national construction and strategy, which provides a bridge for geological work to serve the society. There is an increasing demand of multi- factorial and whole- dimensional information service regarding cores and samples with the economic and social growth. Herein, we summarize the administrational service and policy systems for physical geographical materials. Based on the statistics between 2015 and 2019, we summarize the progress from on- site and internet service, subject service, popular science service and scientific research. We also provide suggestions for strengthening social service from cores and samples in the future.
