Application of the ratio of satellite image channels for mineral mapping using the example of Kokpatas-Okjetpes from the direction of the trend (Bukantau Mountains)
Keywords:
ASTER, Bukantau, Kokpatas-Okjetpes trend, Gold deposits, Mineralized zoneAbstract
Research using remote survey materials contributes to the improvement of existing and the creation of new research methods, the further study of the geological structure of large regions, and the identification of factors responsible for the localization of minerals. At the same time, the structural patterns of mineralization localization in individual areas are revealed, the connections of cosmo-geological objects with the distribution of minerals are studied. The object of research in this work is the perspective area of Derbez - the western flank of the Kokpatas deposit, Kokpatas-Okjetpes trend.
