The main objective of this study is to analyze the evolution of the research in the category Mining & Mineral Processing'. First, we have revised journals that are in this subject category in the database Science Citation Index-Expanded (SCI-E) of the Web of Science (WoS).Second, we have analyzed publications for journals between 1997 and 2012, with an analysis from the perspective of both quantity and quality. To do this, we have analyzed various bibliometric indicators for different countries and research centers such as the number of documents (article and review), showing per document, productivity, the average number of citations, authors, research centers, national and international collaboration including their networks, the weighted and relative impact factor, as well as the h-index. Furthermore, we have analyzed the international dissemination of research of countries through journals and the relationship with the impact factor to detect the published journals of each country.We have also shown that English is the most common language of publication, and the United States is the most productive country, although it has a relatively low impact factor due to the dispersion of its publications in low or medium impact journals. We can also see that University of Science and Technology of Beijing and the Russian Academy of Sciences have been the most productive institutions during the period under study, along with the large increase of the Atomic Energy and Alternative Energies Commission of France (CEA).
