Iranian Journal of Crystallography and Mineralogy (IJCM) is the pioneer professional journal of the Iranian Society of Crystallography and Mineralogy being published quarterly to present the peer-reviewed latest scientific research findings in the related fields of crystallography and mineralogy. The journal welcomes all the researchers from different fields in crystallography and mineralogy sciences. We hope, by developing the researches in these fields of basic sciences, can publish each issue more weighty than the previous one.

Iranian Journal of Crystallography and Mineralogy was first published as a semi-quarterly (two issues per year) since spring of 1993. Then, owing to the increased number of the papers submitted to the journal, it has been published quarterly since 2008. The evaluation committee of scientific journals at the Ministry of Sciences, Research and Technology of Iran (MSRT) has approved IJCM as a scientific-research journal since may 2001 and it has been indexed in Islamic World Science Citation Center (ISC), as well. Moreover, the journal is published under the licence of reference No. 18977, dated 23th Aug. 2006, from the Ministry of Culture and Islamic Guidance.
