Chemical Geology is devoted to providing rapid publication of original articles in the ever widening field of organic and inorganic geochemistry. Both long and short articles dealing with data from the Earth and other planets are accepted. The journal's aim is to cover the field of chemical geology in the broadest possible sense, including: low temperature geochemistry, organic/petroleum geochemistry, inorganic geochemistry, analytical techniques, isotope studies, environmental geochemistry, and experimental petrology and geochemistry. Chemical Geology has been chosen by the European Association for Geochemistry as its official publication. However, the journal itself continues to be fully international in its outlook - a policy reflected by a team of Editors, whose high scientific standing and internationality ensures that Chemical Geology attracts contributions from the scientific community worldwide.

《化學地質學》致力于在日益擴大的有機地球化學和無機地球化學領域提供快速發表原創文章的服務。處理來自地球和其他行星的數據的長文章和短文章都可以接受。該雜志的目標是涵蓋最廣泛的化學地質學領域，包括:低溫地球化學、有機/石油地球化學、無機地球化學、分析技術、同位素研究、環境地球化學、實驗巖石學和地球化學。《化學地質學》已被歐洲地球化學協會選為其官方出版物。然而，《化學地質學》雜志本身的觀點仍然是完全國際化的——一組編輯反映了這一政策，他們的高科學地位和國際性確保了《化學地質學》吸引了全世界科學界的貢獻。
