Geochemical Society

The Geochemical Society is a nonprofit scientific organization founded to encourage the application of chemistry to solve problems involving geology and cosmology. The society promotes understanding of geochemistry through the annual Goldschmidt Conference®, publication of a peer-reviewed journal and electronic newsletter, awards programs recognizing significant accomplishments in the field, and student development programs. The society's offices are located on the campus of the Carnegie Institution for Science in Washington, DC.

Along with the European Association of Geochemistry, the Geochemical Society convenes the annual Goldschmidt Conference®, one of the world's largest meetings devoted to geochemistry. The 2016 conference will be held June 26-July 1 in Yokohama, Japan. The society's board of directors holds its annual meeting during the conference.
