Delighted to see this paper out in @weareagc.bsky.social! We finally have a great journal where we can publish cosmochemistry papers that are free to read, and free to publish. No need to provide free labour to Elsevier, Wiley and co. so that they can make billions of $$$ and feed ChatGPT..
New paper alert!

Tartèse et al. just published their new work in AGC:

"Petrogenesis of Néma 001, an alkali-rich meteorite from the acapulcoite-lodranite parent body"

Full free article available here: doi.org/10.33063/agc...

The cosmochemistry is well represented this week, thanks for your trust!

Support the diamond open access journals in geoscience!

Several really good options covering a broad range of fields.

The new journal @weareagc.bsky.social and the @eageo.bsky.social’s geochemical perspective letters and cover all things geochemistry.
You are right
I decline your invitation to review XXX. In part, this is because I am too busy. In part, I am reluctant to undertake unpaid work for an organisation that made a £3.2 billion profit in 2024.
