Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue will publish selected papers from the 7th National Youth Geological Congress that took place on 25–29 April, 2025, in Shenyang, China. The key objective of the 7th National Youth Geological Congress was to share the latest developments in regional geology and mineralization, natural mineral systems, strategic mineral resources, new mineral exploration strategies and technological progress, mining engineering geological environments and disasters, deep engineering, and the efficient utilization of resources. We are cordially inviting you to submit your manuscript to this Special Issue.
