Fusion of Multispectral Remote-Sensing Data through GIS-Based Overlay Method for Revealing Potential Areas of Hydrothermal Mineral Resources

Abstract: Revealing prospective locations of hydrothermal alteration zones (HAZs) is an important technique for mineral prospecting. In this study, we used multiple criteria inferred from Landsat-8 OLI, Sentinel-2, and ASTER data using a GIS-based weighted overlay multi-criteria decision analysis approach to build a model for the delineating of hydrothermal mineral deposits in the Khnaiguiyah district, Saudi Arabia. The utilized algorithms revealed argillic, phyllic, and propylitic alteration characteristics. The HAZs m… Show more

“…Satellite imageries could be used to target multiple and new potential areas before conducting detailed and costly fieldwork research [ 1 , 6 , 30 , 35 , 50 , 56 , 62 ]. Moreover, the use of satellite data for remote sensing is a crucial low-cost option for detecting, mapping, and gathering dependable information on potential or prospective areas, and actually, enhanced remote sensing data has been extensively used for identifying and mapping subsurface minerals and structural features in regions of appropriate exposure like detection of hydrothermal alteration zones in tropical and subtropical regions using satellite remote sensing data including Landsat ETM+, Hyperion and PALSAR for gold mineralization [ 37 , 38 , [44] , [45] , [46] , 51 , 56 ].…”

“…Due to its high spatial, spectrum, and radiometric precision, remote sensing-based data is useful for mineral resource explorations. Delineating alteration regions and identifying mineral signatures are among the main goals of this research using satellite imagery [ 1 , 6 , 31 , 35 , 50 , 54 ]. To determine potential mineral reserves sites and alteration areas their quality must be defined [ 2 , 6 , 14 , 35 , 50 , 54 , 57 ].…”
