Avaliação
To maintain high scientific standards, all manuscripts submitted to the Journal Mineralogiya (Mineralogy) are subject to a single-blind peer-review procedure (the names of the authors are known for the reviewers, but the reviewers are anonymous for the authors). The review process aims to evaluate the manuscripts for publication and to offer recommendations for their improvement. The manuscripts are preliminary assessed by Editor-in-Chief, Co-Editor or Responsible Editor for the suitability for the Journal. The reviewers are suggested by Editor-in-Chief, Co-Editor or Responsible Editor. The peer-review process in the Journal obeys the following criteria.
1. The manuscripts considered suitable are sent to two reviewers, one of which is a member of the Editorial Board. The papers submitted by members of the Editorial Board cannot be reviewed by other members of the Editorial Board. The reviewers cannot be affiliated with the organizations of the authors.
2. In most cases, the manuscripts are sent to authors for revision. The revised manuscripts could again be evaluated by the reviewers if necessary.
3. If the authors disagree with the opinion of the reviewer, the manuscript can be sent to another reviewer. The final decision on the publication is made by Editor-in-Chief.
4. In case of rejection of the manuscript, the authors are notified by the Editor’s-in-Chief letter. The Editorial Board does not discuss the final decisions with authors of the rejected articles.
5. The copies of the reviews are sent to authors. The original reviews are stored at the editorial office for five years from the date of the publication and are provided to the Ministry of Science and Higher Education of the Russian Federation upon a request.
6. The revised manuscript must be corrected using a Review mode in a word processor. The authors must also present a response to the reviewer’s comments.
7. The Editor’s-in-Chief decision on the publication is final. The manuscript prepared for publication is sent to the authors for their consideration and approval of editing. In case of significant changes of the manuscript at this stage, it can be reviewed again.
