The Utility of Hyperspectral Data on Exploration of Sandstone-hosted Uranium Deposits
نویسنده
چکیده
Based on hyperspectral data mining techniques and characteristics of imaging spectrum, Hyperion satellite hyperspectral data are used to study the diagnosable spectral signatures and quantitatively extract the absorption spectral features of sandstone-hosted uranium deposits in northern China. In terms of information extraction approach and the processing method of extra-abundance data, we have adopted the quantitative method of radiance calibration, geometric correction and spectral mapping to study the geological features of uranium deposits. The prospect of hyperspectral data mining techniques for exploration and evaluation of uranium deposits has been discussed in the paper. Good results have been achieved in the practical application.

متن کاملEvidence of uranium biomineralization in sandstone-hosted roll-front uranium deposits, northwestern China
We show evidence that the primary uranium minerals, uraninite and coffinite, from high-grade ore samples (U3O8N0.3%) in the Wuyiyi, Wuyier, and Wuyisan sandstone-hosted roll-front uranium deposits, Xinjiang, northwestern China were biogenically precipitated and psuedomorphically replace fungi and bacteria. Uranium (VI), which was the sole electron acceptor, was likely to have been enzymically r...
متن کاملRecent developments in uranium resources and production with emphasis on in situ leach mining
The northern Asia, including the southern territories of Russia, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Mongolia and the northern China is known as an important distribution region of uranium deposits and occurrences. Since the 60s of 20th century, after the successful development of in-situ leach technology for sandstone-hosted uranium deposits, numerous uranium deposits previously discovered in Kazakhstan a...
متن کاملMineral paragenesis and textures associated with sandstone-hosted roll-front uranium deposits, NW China
We present a first paragenetic study of the Wuyier, Wuyisan, Wuyiyi and Shihongtan sandstone-hosted roll-front uranium deposits, northwest China. The mineralization is hosted by Lower–Middle Jurassic coarseto medium-grained sandstones, which are dark-gray to black due to a mixture of ore minerals and carbonaceous debris. The sandstone is alluvial fan-braided river facies. Minerals associated wi...
