Journal of Petrology

The Journal of Petrology provides an international forum for the publication of the best science related to the broad field of igneous and metamorphic petrology and petrogenesis. Papers published cover a vast range of topics in areas such as major element, trace element and isotope geochemistry and geochronology applied to petrogenesis; experimental petrology; processes of magma generation, differentiation and emplacement; solutions of fundamental petrological problems through regional studies of igneous and metamorphic rocks; theoretical modelling of petrogenetic processes; quantitative studies of rock-forming minerals and their paragenesis.
