Green and Smart Mining Engineering is a multidisciplinary, open access, peer-reviewed journal dedicated to the rapid publication and global dissemination of the latest findings on all fields involving exploration, exploitation and utilization of mineral resources, including metallic minerals, non-metallic minerals and energy minerals. The journal welcomes articles on the theories, methods, techniques, experiences and cases involving green, environmental, sustainability and artificial intelligence issues in mine geology, mining engineering and mineral processing and specific areas of interest include, but are not limited to:

  • Green and sustainable mining technology and policy

  • Artificial intelligence in mine geology, mining engineering and mineral processing

  • Genesis and exploration of metals critical for green energies

  • Backfill mining technology

  • Deep rock mechanics and engineering

  • Mine geotechnical engineering and geological engineering

  • Mine safety science and engineering

  • Mineral flotation and interface chemistry

  • Green extractive metallurgy

  • Advanced mineral materials

  • Mining and metallurgical waste utilization and environmental protection

  • Resources recycling and utilization

The University of Science and Technology Beijing(USTB) is a multi-disciplinary institution dedicated to excellence in teaching and research, preparing its students to take on the challenges of the 21st century. USTB is home to 25,000 students, with nearly half pursuing a graduate degree and over 1,800 teaching faculty. Here students and teachers work together, alongside our many partners in private industry and academic institutions, to engage in cutting-edge research, particularly in the fields of materials science and engineering, metallurgical engineering, and mining engineering. With the motto of “Seeking Truth and Promoting Innovation”, USTB is committed to providing quality education and real-world opportunities to future generations of scholars and industry innovators.

USTB takes pride in being a leader and innovator amongst Chinese universities and has been responsible for many “firsts” in the nation. USTB developed the country‘ss first electric arc furnace, designed the housing materials for China‘ss first satellite Dong Fang Hong 1, and built the nation‘ss first industrial-size robot. In recognition of our achievements, USTB has been chosen as one of the first universities to participate in several national high-level initiatives, including the “211 Project” and “985 Platform for National Advanced Disciplines Innovation”, as well as being one of the first universities permitted to establish a graduate degree program and establish a partnership with a foreign university during the reforming and opening-up period. In 2017 we were chosen to be part of the national “Double First-class Initiative” to build four first-class disciplines. As a university of “firsts”, USTB continually strives to be a leading innovator in both China and the global community
