The Journal of Mineralogical and Petrological Sciences (JMPS) publishes original articles, reviews and letters in the fields of mineralogy, petrology, economic geology, geochemistry, planetary materials science, and related scientific fields. As an international journal, we aim to provide worldwide diffusion for the results of research in Japan, as well as to serve as a medium with high impact factor for the global scientific communication

Given the remarkable rate at which publications have been expanding to include several fields, including planetary and earth sciences, materials science, and instrumental analysis technology, the journal aims to encourage and develop a variety of such new interdisciplinary scientific fields, to encourage the wide scope of such new fields to bloom in the future, and to contribute to the rapidly growing international scientific community.

To cope with this emerging scientific environment, in April 2000 the journal's two parent societies, MSJ* (The Mineralogical Society of Japan) and JAMPEG* (The Japanese Association of Mineralogists, Petrologists and Economic Geologists), combined their respective journals (the Mineralogical Journal and the Journal of Mineralogy, Petrology and Economic Geology). The result of this merger was the Journal of Mineralogical and Petrological Sciences, which has a greatly expanded and enriched scope compared to its predecessors.

《矿物学和岩石学科学杂志》（JMPS）发表矿物学、岩石学、经济地质学、地球化学、行星材料科学和相关科学领域的原创文章、评论和信件。作为一本国际期刊，我们的目标是让日本的研究成果在全世界范围内传播，并成为全球科学交流的高影响因子媒介。

鉴于出版物以惊人的速度扩展至行星和地球科学、材料科学和仪器分析技术等多个领域，该期刊旨在鼓励和发展各种此类新的跨学科科学领域，鼓励这些新领域的广泛发展，并为快速发展的国际科学界做出贡献。

为了应对这种新兴的科学环境，2000 年 4 月，该期刊的两个母协会 MSJ*（日本矿物学会）和 JAMPEG*（日本矿物学家、岩石学家和经济地质学家协会）合并了各自的期刊（矿物学杂志和矿物学、岩石学和经济地质学杂志）。此次合并的结果是《矿物学和岩石学杂志》，与之前的杂志相比，其范围大大扩展和丰富。

该刊已被国际权威数据库SCIE收录，该刊致力于发表经过严格同行评审的高质量原创文章，反映地学-矿物学领域的新进展、新技术、新成果，促进该领域科研交流和科研成果转化。该刊2023年影响因子为0.9，平均审稿速度为 12周，或约稿 ，近四年来没有被列入预警名单。如果您需要投稿发表服务及指导，可以联系我们的客服老师，我们专业专注服务期刊投稿协助10年，为您提供期刊投稿个性化定制服务，并且我们确保严格保密您的个人信息及稿件内容。
