Aims & Scope✦ Inferred from recent articles
This journal focuses on mineralogy and petrology, investigating the physical and chemical properties of minerals and rocks. Research includes phase transformations under high pressure and temperature, the discovery and characterization of new minerals, and the application of analytical techniques like electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction. Studies also cover geological processes such as magmatism, metamorphism, and planetary science, including the analysis of meteorites and asteroid samples. The journal also explores the use of computational methods like machine learning in geological studies and the thermodynamic properties of minerals.
