Welcome to the Online
Manuscript Submission, Tracking and Peer Review System for
Applied Earth Science

(Trans. IMM B, incorporating Proc. AusIMM)



Applied Earth Science is devoted to all aspects of the application of the earth sciences in the discovery, exploration, development and exploitation of all forms of mineral resources. The journal's broad range of interest serves an international readership whose common concern is knowledge and use of the earth's mineral resources on land and beneath the sea.

The journal seeks high quality submissions covering the following areas:

  • All forms of exploration technology applied to mineral deposits. This may include: mapping, application of remote sensing and GIS, geochemical and geophysical exploration techniques, and physical exploration techniques such as drilling or development sampling.
  • Genetic studies of mineralisation. This may include: ore mineralogy, geochemistry, studies of isotopes or fluid inclusions, or numerical modelling.
  • Geological input into: definition of reserves and resources, sampling and grade control, geostatistics, feasibility studies and mine planning.

Applied Earth Science regularly publishes special issues focusing on topics of current interest. Information about special issues is posted on the journal homepage. Proposals for special issues are welcome and should be addressed to the Editor.
