| 内容記述 | Geophysical and Environmental Research Imaging Spectrometer (GERIS) 63-channel scanner data covering the spectral region 0.4 to 2.5 microns were analyzed for the Cuprite mining district, Esmeralda and Nye Counties, Nevada. Individual and spatially averaged spectra extracted from the GERIS data were used to identify the minerals alunite, kaolinite, buddingtonite, and hematite by their spectral characteristics. The images were classified in the spectral domain to produce color-coded image maps of mineral distribution that clearly show the zoned nature of the hydrothermal system. Comparison of the thematic mineral maps with existing geologic and alteration maps demonstrates the utility of imaging spectrometers for producing detailed maps for mineral exploration. |
