Journal of Geochemical Exploration is mostly dedicated to publication of original studies in exploration and environmental geochemistry and related topics.

Contributions considered of prevalent interest for the journal include researches based on the application of innovative methods to:

define the genesis and the evolution of mineral deposits including transfer of elements in large-scale mineralized areas.
analyze complex systems at the boundaries between bio-geochemistry, metal transport and mineral accumulation.
evaluate effects of historical mining activities on the surface environment.
trace pollutant sources and define their fate and transport models in the near-surface and surface environments involving solid, fluid and aerial matrices.
assess and quantify natural and technogenic radioactivity in the environment.
determine geochemical anomalies and set baseline reference values using compositional data analysis, multivariate statistics and geo-spatial analysis.
assess the impacts of anthropogenic contamination on ecosystems and human health at local and regional scale to prioritize and classify risks through deterministic and stochastic approaches.
Papers dedicated to the presentation of newly developed methods in analytical geochemistry to be applied in the field or in laboratory are also within the topics of interest for the journal.

The submission process is not enjoyable. Firstly, it is slow. It takes about a month to send it for external review, and with the first review taking two months, the total time is three months. Throughout the process, there is only one reviewer. The reviewer is indeed professional, but it can be seen that they are not thorough. They can only provide suggestions on parts they are familiar with, and these parts are not the most important content of the article (for example, they focus on the part that cost 10,000 yuan for experiments, while ignoring the remaining 24,000 yuan of experimental data). This shows that the reviewer may not understand what the article is about, resulting in negative evaluations. Shouldn't they be objective if they do not understand? Secondly, the reviewer is not thorough and only reviews the parts related to the figures and their related sections. They completely ignore the content without figures. Lastly, the reviewer makes several mocking remarks in the article, for example, "I'm just curious if you are serious." It's truly eye-opening. In conclusion, if you are in a hurry to graduate, do not choose this journal.

The overall process was slow, not suitable for students who were in a hurry to graduate. However, luckily, the article was eventually accepted.
