Bulletin of the Mineral Research and Exploration (BMRE) is an open-access, single-blind, peer-reviewed journal in the field of earth sciences. The submission language of the Bulletin is English. BMRE is published three times (April, August, and December) in a year, and the average time for acceptance and publishing is 6 months and a maximum of one year, respectively. Thus, BMRE is mainly indexed by Web of Science (ESCI), Scopus, EBSCO, TR Dizin, and DOAJ.
BMRE not only publishes original papers on mining geology but also general geology, structural geology, tectonics, sedimentology, stratigraphy, paleontology, geochemistry, geostatistics, earthquake studies, geoheritage, geoarchaeology, environmental geology, remote sensing, engineering geology, hydrogeology, geotechnics, geothermal energy, petroleum geology, mining, and petroleum technologies. Briefly, the journal accepts original manuscripts in all branches of earth sciences.
BMRE accepted manuscripts in Turkish, English, French, and German between 1936 and 1985, and was published only in English and Turkish between 1985 and 2021. The Bulletin, which has recently changed its submission language, has decided to continue its publication life only in English as of January 2022. In addition, the Turkish translation of the accepted papers is published electronically on our website (https://bulletin.mta.gov.tr/)
