the method of weights of evidence is one of the most important data driven methods for mineral potential mapping in gis. in this method, considering the characteristics of known mineralized locations, we can prospect new mineralized areas. in this research work, the method of weights of evidence has been used for hydrothermal gold potential mapping in torbat-e-heydarieh area, east of iran. as a...

sarbisheh mineral occurrence is located in the vicinity of the tourshab village about 50 km south of birjand, the center of southern khorassan province, east iran. the predominant geologic characteristics of the region are highly-tectonic deformation, and intrusive, granodiroritic-dioritic, to volcanic, dacitic-andsitic rocks associated with broad alteration. to the northern part of the studied...

The northwestern part of the Kerman Cenozoic magmatic arc (KCMA) contains many areas with porphyry copper mineralization. In this research, we used the advanced space-borne thermal emission and reflection radiometer (ASTER) and Enhanced Thematic Mapper plus (ETM+) images of this region to map the distribution of hydrothermally altered rocks, based on their mineral assemblages. The spectral meas...

the main problem associated with the traditional approach to image classification for the mapping of hydrothermal alteration is that materials not associated with hydrothermal alteration may be erroneously classified as hydrothermally altered due to the similar spectral properties of altered and unaltered minerals. the major objective of this paper is to investigate the potential of a neuro-fuz...

The area of interest is located on the eastern flank of the Andean Cordillera, San Juan province, Argentina. The 3600 km2 area is characterized by Siluro-Devonian to Neogene sedimentary and igneous rocks and unconsolidated Quaternary sediments. Epithermal, porphyry-related, and magmatic-hydrothermal breccia-hosted ore deposits, common in this part of the Frontal Cordillera, are associated with ...

The study area is located in Jabal-Barez Ranges, southeastern part of Kerman Copper Belt (KCB), where the porphyry copper mineralization such as Kerver occurs. This article deals with the enhancement of hydrothermal alteration minerals for exploration of porphyry Cu mineralization, and differentiates intense hydrothermal alteration zones from those with low intensity. Shortwave Infrared (SWIR) ...

In geologic imaging spectroscopy studies, typical end products are often mineral maps. These maps are usually ambiguous and form a limited method of representing geological information that is potentially contained in spectroscopic images. This situation can be improved by mapping the spatial configuration of the effects of geological processes instead of the solely individual minerals in a non...
