Aims & Scope

Contributions to Mineralogy and Petrology is a comprehensive international journal focusing on petrology, geochemistry, and mineralogy research. Accepts high-quality research papers in the fields of igneous and metamorphic petrology, geochemistry, and mineralogy. Explores the fundamental processes leading to the formation and evolution of the Earth’s crust, mantle, and core. Encourages papers using petrologic, geochemical, and mineralogical evidence recorded in rocks and minerals. Welcomes topics of interest including major element, trace element, and isotope geochemistry, geochronology, experimental petrology, and thermodynamic modelling.
