Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles

This journal focuses on geological research, including geochemistry, petrology, and structural geology. Articles investigate the isotopic composition of elements like iron and isotopes such as Hf and Pb in various rock types. Research also covers tectonic divisions, the formation and characteristics of mineral deposits, and the dating of geological formations using methods like U-Pb zircon dating. Additionally, the journal publishes studies on sedimentary processes, reservoir properties, and the geological evolution of basins and orogenic belts.
