The Journal serves as a medium for the publication of high quality scientific papers. This requires that the papers that are submitted for publication are properly and fairly refereed and edited. This process will maintain the high quality of the presentation of the paper and ensure that the technical content is in line with the accepted norms of scientific integrity.

Publication Ethics

Ethical standards for publication exist to ensure high-quality scientific publications. SAIMM aims to adhere to the ASSAf Code of Best Practice Guidelines framed on Publication Ethics and abides by its Code of Conduct.

The SAIMM takes note of the detailed requirements in the ASSAf Code of Best Practice and applies it wherever possible.
