Abstract

In this study, processing and interpretation methods in remote sensing such as visual and spectral analysis have been performed on the EO-1, ASTER and ETM+ data from Meshkinshahr North area, and as a result, the alteration zones in the area have been identified. Then result Aeromagnetic data, using geological information, alteration and mineralization from the area.  Development of advanced tools in remote sensing and geophysical exploration during recent decades indicates the necessity and importance of these tools in industry. For this purpose, a variety of image processing methods are used Aeromagnetic methods have an important role for exploration of metallic ore deposits. To achieve good results from these methods. In order to identify alteration zones, image processing methods such as PCA (principal component analysis), SAM (spectral angle mapping) and MTMF (Matched Filtering MF) using ENVI software were applied on the Hyperion EO-1, ASTER and ETM+ images from the study area. After removal of the noise from observed magnetic data, processing steps were considered, including IGRF subtraction for the proper years, reduction to pole, Signal Analytic, Tilt (TDR), THDR, and upward continuation 1000 meters. Identification of alteration zones in the study area using remote sensing and image processing methods, and interpretation of the geophysical Aeromagnetic results using geological and Mineralization and Hot Springs and Faults information in the area have been led to the identification of Alteration zone. Many Anomaly and Alterations Kaolinite and silica located in the Meshkinshahr north area (northwest Sabalan) and the other many situated in the northwest Sarab. For credibility of results, samples were taken and analyzed by XRD methods. Confirmed the results of remote sensing and aeromagnetic processes. Conclusions of this research revealed that applying concurrency both the remote sensing and aeromagnetic data could be led to improve the precision of the results.
