CIM Journal is now listed on the Web of Science Emerging Sources Citation Index.

This listing confirms the high quality of the papers in the publication and the valuable contribution they make to the mining, minerals, metals, and petroleum sectors. It also ensures that CIM Journal authors will have their work read and cited by others.   

CIM Journal is a quarterly digital publication for peer-reviewed technical papers available to all CIM National Members as a membership benefit and to non-members for a fee.  

Papers cover all facets of the mining and minerals industry, including geology, mining, processing, metallurgy, materials, maintenance, environmental protection and reclamation, mineral economics, project management, health and safety, risk management, research and development, operations, and regulatory practices and issues. 

CIM Journal was created in 2010 by the founding editor Chuck Edwards, a CIM Fellow and former CIM president, to restore the practice of publishing technical papers, which were previously found in the CIM Bulletin before it stopped publishing in 2005.  

Since 2020, CIM Journal has been produced by the international publisher Taylor & Francis to help grow the audience and impact of the journal.  

The Emerging Sources Citation Index is a rigorously curated bibliographic database that includes journals which publish high-quality research, have an international focus, and follow the leading practices in technical publishing.
