Huang was known for his expertise in deep Earth exploration technology. He helped China soar in a number of technical fields, transforming the nation into one of the world's leaders in deep Earth exploration.
Huang's bile duct cancer went undetected since he was constantly working, causing him to miss a key window for treatment. On Jan 8, 2017, Huang died at age 58.
