Geostandards and Geoanalytical Research (GGR)

Geostandards and Geoanalytical Research serves as the official journal of the International Association of Geoanalysts (IAG) and is published quarterly by Wiley‑Blackwell. It plays a crucial role in promoting high standards in analytical methods and data quality for the geosciences, particularly where accurate chemical characterization of rocks, minerals, soils and environmental materials is essential. Since its renaming in 2004, the journal has published research that explores the development and validation of reference materials, improvements in instrumental and statistical approaches to analysis, and innovations in geoanalytical protocols that reduce uncertainty and enhance reproducibility. It also includes bibliographic and topical reviews summarizing advancements across the field. The editorial board comprises international experts who ensure rigorous peer review and topical relevance. Through its hybrid open access model, the journal supports broad dissemination of high‑quality analytical research, making it a key resource for geochemists, analytical chemists, and laboratory scientists. The journal’s focus on reference materials and quality assurance positions it as a vital forum for improving analytical standards globally and fostering best practices in geological and environmental sample analysis.
