Multispectral and Hyperspectral Remote Sensing Data for Mineral Exploration and Environmental Monitoring of Mined Areas
In recent decades, remote sensing technology has been incorporated in numerous mineral exploration projects in metallogenic provinces around the world. Multispectral and hyperspectral sensors play a significant role in affording unique data for mineral exploration and environmental hazard monitoring. This book covers the advances of remote sensing data processing algorithms in mineral exploration, and the technology can be used in monitoring and decision-making in relation to environmental mining hazard. This book presents state-of-the-art approaches on recent remote sensing and GIS-based mineral prospectivity modeling, offering excellent information to professional earth scientists, researchers, mineral exploration communities and mining companies.

Encyclopedia of Mathematical Geosciences
The Encyclopedia of Mathematical Geosciences is a complete and authoritative reference work. It provides concise explanation on each term that is related to Mathematical Geosciences. Over 300 international scientists, each expert in their specialties, have written around 350 separate articles on different topics of mathematical geosciences including contributions on Artificial Intelligence, Big Data, Compositional Data Analysis, Geomathematics, Geostatistics, Geographical Information Science, Mathematical Morphology, Mathematical Petrology, Multifractals, Multiple Point Statistics, Spatial Data Science, Spatial Statistics, and Stochastic Process Modeling. Each topic incorporates cross-referencing to related articles, and also has its own reference list to lead the reader to essential articles within the published literature. The entries are arranged alphabetically, for easy access, and the subject and author indices are comprehensive and extensive.
The Geology of the Arabian-Nubian Shield
This richly illustrated book reviews the geology, tectonics and mineralization of the Arabian-Nubian Shield (ANS) in 27 chapters. It starts with an examination of the ANS lithospheric scale features, explores Mesoproterozoic units and deals with the ANS oceanic stage. Arc volcanism and plutonism, post-collision basins and volcanics are discussed, as well as the younger granitoid magmatism and the deformation history of the ANS. The book provides information on ANS glacial stages and late magmatism. Chapters are devoted to review the transition between ANS and the reworked continent to its south. Finally, it discusses how ANS structures influenced the overall East African Rift System.
Engineering Geology and Geological Engineering for Sustainable Use of the Earth’s Resources, Urbanization and Infrastructure Protection from Geohazards
The ongoing population growth is resulting in rapid urbanization, new infrastructure development and increasing demand for the Earth's natural resources (e.g., water, oil/gas, minerals). This, together with the current climate change and increasing impact of natural hazards, imply that the engineering geology profession is called upon to respond to new challenges. It is recognized that these challenges are particularly relevant in the developing and newly industrialized regions. The idea beyond this volume is to highlight the role of engineering geology and geological engineering in fostering sustainable use of the Earth's resources, smart urbanization and infrastructure protection from geoh...
Remote Sensing Image Processing
Earth observation is the field of science concerned with the problem of monitoring and modeling the processes on the Earth surface and their interaction with the atmosphere. The Earth is continuously monitored with advanced optical and radar sensors. The images are analyzed and processed to deliver useful products to individual users, agencies and public administrations. To deal with these problems, remote sensing image processing is nowadays a mature research area, and the techniques developed in the field allow many real-life applications with great societal value. For instance, urban monitoring, fire detection or flood prediction can have a great impact on economical and environmental iss...
Mid-infrared Spectral Behavior of Metamorphic Rocks
Mid-infrared (6 to 40 micrometers) spectra of metamorphic rocks and rock-forming minerals are presented, and their molecular vibration bands identified. While igneous and sedimentary rocks are typically composed of a few major rockforming minerals in different proportions, metamorphic rocks may contain many different mineral components, some of which are vertually unique to the metamorphic environment. As a result, metamorphic rocks display a great range in spectral behavior. However, similar metamorphic facies exhibit similar spectral behavior, and this behavior is readily understandable in terms of rock mineralogy. This understanding is aided by the fact that metamorphic recrystallization is usually accompanied by a sharpening of the spectral features.
Endapan Plaser
Endapan primer dan endapan sekunder merupakan korelasi genetik yang menuntun dalam mendeteksi sumber dan jarak terbentuknya endapan plaser. Salah satu endapan plaser paling mudah diuangkan adalah butiran emas plaser. Korelasi genetik dan nilai jual merupakan pedoman umum para penambang endapan emas plaser yang umumnya didominasi oleh para penambang tanpa izin. Sederhananya bila dijumpai butiran emas di gunung maka pasti ada pula butiran emas di sungai. Memang emas plaser sangat menjanjikan selain langsung memiliki nilai jual juga karena diperoleh dari proses pemisahan cukup sederhana dari batuannya. Awalnya kegiatan penelitian eksploratif diutamakan pada endapan primer seperti hidrotermal, epitermal, porfiri dan logam dasar, ternyata banyak dijumpai indikasi endapan plaser yang belum terdeteksi secara genetik. Inilah yang menjadi alasan bagi saya mewujudkan buku ini untuk memudahkan dalam pembelajaran baik bagi kalangan mahasiswa maupun pembaca pemerhati endapan mineral.
Regolith Exploration Geochemistry in Tropical and Subtropical Terrains
Hardbound. The use of exploration geochemistry has increased enormously in the last decade. The present volume specifically addresses those geochemical exploration practices appropriate for tropical, sub-tropical and adjacent areas - in environments ranging from rainforest to desert. Practical recommendations are made for the optimization of sampling, and analytical and interpretational procedures for exploration according to the particular nature of tropically weathered terrains. The underlying theme is the recognition that regions between 35N and 35S in particular have a common history of deep chemical weathering and lateritization during the late Mesozoic and early Tertiary. This has had a profound and lasting effect, so that the surface geochemical expressions of mineralization throughout these regions have many similar features, with local modification due to more recent weathering under changed climates.The volume discusses the da
