Biopetrology

Biopetrology is a young International Journal founded by the International Biopetrological Association (IBA)  aiming quickly to publish innovative research results in biopetrology and related fields. ​It is a free open access journal—at no cost to the authors and readers.


The time of paper-printing publishing is ​ going away. Biopetrology will lead scientists to an efficient, convenient, and pleasant net-publishing era.

is a new interdisciplinary science, covering the studies of biomineralization and all biogenic rocks and mineral constructions, such as microbialites and reef rocks.

Logo of Biopetrology :  

The Earth consists of four earths: a green earth full of life, a white earth full of biogenic minerals, a grey earth full of rocks, and a golden earth full of ore deposits, petroleum and gas.
