GGGG: Call for Papers - Post-mining Issues: A Global Perspective of Geo-environment

Dear Colleagues,

Geomechanics and Geophysics for Geo-Energy and Geo-Resources (GGGG) is soliciting papers for a new Open Access Topical Collection on the "Post-mining Issues: A Global Perspective of Geo-environment".

GGGG (Impact Factor 2023: 3.9) is an open-access, peer-reviewed journal that allows researchers and practitioners to reach a broader audience. This journal publishes original research, new developments, and case studies in the field of geomechanics and geophysics, with special application to energy and resources in the Earth’s subsurface. Coverage spans the full scope of geomechanics and geophysics including theory and analysis, laboratory and field experiments, numerical methods and modelling techniques, and engineering applications and technology development related to energy and resources.

We are currently serving as Guest Editors and would like to invite you and your team to contribute to our Collection on "Post-mining Issues: A Global Perspective of Geo-environment".

The submission deadline for this collection is July 31, 2025. You can submit your manuscript any time before that, and all articles published by GGGG are made freely and permanently accessible online immediately upon publication. You can access the topical collection via this link.

To submit your manuscript for consideration at GGGG as part of this Collection, please follow the steps detailed on this page. When submitting your manuscript, you will choose whether you are submitting your manuscript to a Collection, you will then be able to select the "Post-mining Issues: A Global Perspective of Geo-environment" Collection from the drop-down list.
