About the JournÂal
The Journal for the Geological Sciences – Zeitschrift für GeolÂogische WissensÂchaften (ZÂGW) – haÂs existed since 1973. It is an independent medium and dedicated strictly to science. The ZGW iÂs published by Verlag für Geowissenschaften Berlin (at its branch office in Ahrensfelde, Germany). Its managing editor/publisher is Ulrich Wutzke.
Its Creation and PredecessorsThe history of the Journal der Zeitschrift für Geologische Wissenschaften began in 1951. Through an administrative decision that year, the well-established Royal Prussian geological state office and mining academy in Berlin, Invalidenstraße 44 (founded in 1873) created the journal “Geologie” (Geology), the forerunner of ZGW. Their first issue appeared in 1952 through Akademie-Verlag Berlin (licensed on 21. January 1947) in the book format size 17 × 24 cm (large Oktavo, 8°). The Journal was published by the state geological commission (the predecessor of the Central Geological Institute). Friedrich Leutwein (Freiberg/Sachsen) was responsible for the publication. He was assisted by editorial staff: Serge v. Bubnoff (Berlin), Wolfgang Buchheim (Freiberg), Fritz Deubel (Jena), Walter Gross (Berlin), Arno Schüller (Berlin), G. Siemens (Leipzig) and Fritz Stock (Berlin). As of Volume 12 (1963), the Geological Society in the German Democratic Republic (founded 1954) took over as co-publisher, and one year later became the sole publisher. Until 1972, 21 volumes and a total of 79 special feature supplements were published.
Publishing House, Managing Editors/Publishers, Editors-in-ChiefThe first Editor-in-Chief of the Zeitschrift für Geologische Wissenschaften was Robert Lauterbach (Leipzig).

Thereafter for a short time, this role was fulfilled by Ulf Linnemann (Dresden), Jan-Michael Lange (Dresden), Ulrich Wutzke (Berlin and Ahrens-
