Megjegyzések:Fusing multi-source (remote sensing and geophysical) data and diverse approaches validation in targeting hydrothermal alteration and structural anomalies enhances the potential for accurately detecting and characterizing mineralization zones. Sentinel 2 data and ASTER were processed for lithological and hydrothermal alteration mapping in the rare metal-rich Umm Naggat area (Egypt). Different image processing techniques were implemented, including false color composites, minimum noise fraction, band rationing, band math, mineral indices, relative absorption band depth, and constrained energy minimization. The rare metal-bearing Umm Naggat younger granite (NYG) pluton was lithologically discriminated and intra-differentiated to mafic-rich biotite granites, mafic-poor alkali feldspar granites, and albitized granites. Extensive hydrothermal alterations, such as albitization, ferrugination, propylitization, argillization, and phyllitization, overprint the NYG pluton. Normalized standard deviation, automatic lineament extractions, and trend analysis highlighted the key structural directions (NW, NNW, NNE, and NE) and distinguished the NYG pluton as a moderate to high structural density zone. The high structural density and intensive alteration zones are spatially associated and more localized within the NYG pluton than the surrounding rocks. Spatial overlay analysis confirmed that the hydrothermal alterations and fluid circulation systems are structurally-controlled. Furthermore, the hydrothermal alteration mapping and structural analysis outcomes were verified by combining fieldwork, slab polishing, petrographic investigations, and mineral chemistry through semi-quantitative scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive spectroscopy (SEM-EDS) and quantitative electron probe microanalysis (EPMA) analysis. As a result, the hydrothermal genesis of rare metal-bearing minerals (Nb-rutile, Nb-ilmenite, and columbite) close to or incorporated within alteration minerals (chlorite, muscovite, and hematite) is confirmed from the alteration zones (propylitic, phyllic, and ferruginated). In addition, biotite muscovitization and chloritization significantly contribute to the secondary rare metal enrichment. The current study emphasizes the extensive distribution of secondary rare metal-bearing minerals within the entire NYG pluton (not only limited to the northern albitized granite as depicted by previous studies), which might shed light on these hydrothermally-altered younger granites as a new potential source for Nb and Ta in Egypt.

Cím:Effective delineation of rare metal-bearing granites from remote sensing data using machine learning methods: A case study from the Umm Naggat Area, Central Eastern Desert, Egypt / Mohamed A. Abdelkader, Yasushi Watanabe, Ali Shebl, Hanna A. El-Dokouny, Maher Dawoud, Árpád Csámer

Megjegyzések:Albitized granite (ABG) is considered as one of the most significant hosts of rare metals (RMs). Consequently, adequate recognition of ABG through proper lithological discrimination highly increases the targeting of rare metal resources. In order to delineate outcrops of ABG from satellite data, our study integrates eight image enhancement techniques, including optimum index factor, false color composites, band rationing, relative band depth, independent component analysis, principal component analysis, decorrelation stretch, minimum noise fraction transform, and spectral indices ratios, for the interpretation of ASTER and Sentinel-2 (S2) datasets. This integrated approach allows the effective discrimination of AGB outcrops in the Umm Naggat area, Central Eastern Desert, Egypt. The interpretation maps derived from these integrated image processing techniques were systematically verified in the field and formed the base for the feature selection process (i.e., training and testing data delineation) of different lithologies supported by the support vector machine algorithm (SVM). In order to produce a high-quality lithological interpretation map, SVM was applied to Sentinel-2, ASTER, and combined ASTER-S2 datasets. The fused ASTER-S2 classification properly delineates ABG, as verified by our field investigations and confirmed by previous geological maps. Furthermore, comprehensive structural analysis (lineaments extraction and their density map) and hydrothermal alteration detection were performed to check the spatial association between the distribution of ABG, higher density zones, and highly altered areas, that in turn, could shed light on new potentially mineralized zones and proposed exploration targets. Our study reveals new ABG occurrences mainly situated in the southern and southwestern parts of the study area, and it confirms the location of known mineralized zones in the northern part of the Umm Naggat region. The distribution of ABG and its spatial correlation with alteration and high structural density zones suggest that rare-metal mineralization is mostly structurally controlled (NW, NNW, NNE, and N-S), demonstrating the higher possibility of metasomatic enrichment of rare-metals within the study area. Our study provides an updated geological map of the study area based on the SVM-supported interpretation of ASTER-S2 data. Importantly, the results reveal a high exploration potential for rare-metal mineralization at Umm Naggat and defining new anomalies for follow-up work by geochemical soil surveys.

Cím:The geochemistry, origin, and hydrothermal alteration mapping associated with the gold-bearing quartz veins at Hamash district, South Eastern Desert, Egypt / Ahmed M. Abdel-Rahman, Hatem M. El-Desoky, Ali Shebl, Hamada El-Awny, Yahia Z. Amer, Árpád Csámer

Megjegyzések:Integrating diverse techniques and datasets, significantly enhances the accurate identification of various mineral deposits. This work aims to determine different types of mineral deposits in the Hamash district (Southern Eastern Desert, Egypt) by combining structural features (derived from ALOS PALSAR DEM), alteration zones (detected using ASTER and Sentinel-2), and ore mineralogy. Multispectral imaging, such as ASTER and Sentinel-2 satellite data, provides a cost-effective and efficient tool for lithological and hydrothermal alteration mapping utilizing selective band ratios (SBR), directed principal component analysis (DPCA), feature-oriented false-color composites (FFCC), and constrained energy minimization (CEM). The deductions drawn from the analysis of ASTER and Sentinel 2 satellite data are solidly corroborated through meticulous investigations of pre-existing lithological maps in the study area, on-site validation via fieldwork, and robust laboratory analysis, attesting to reliable results. Validation of remote sensing results was performed through field observations, petrographic investigations, X-ray diffraction technique (XRD), and SEM?EDX analyses. Based on ore mineralogy derived from XRD and SEM results the quartz-vein-associated ore minerals in the Hamash district include chalcopyrite, pyrite, hematite, goethite, bornite, covellite, and gold. According to the present paragenesis, the mineralization in the study area is classified into three types: sulfide mineralized zone, transitional zone, and supergene zone. Using an ore microscope, our studies identified that the alteration zones include gold-bearing sulfide minerals as well as the minerals goethite and malachite. In gold-bearing quartz samples, the concentrations of Cu, As, Ag, and Sb are positively correlated with Au at the degree of shear deformation. According to data gathered from the fire assay results, Au content varied from 0.027 to 57.20 ppm, along with Cu (10?6484 ppm), Ag (0.5?20.5 ppm), As (5?2046 ppm), Zn (3?1095 ppm), Pb (2?1383 ppm), and Sb (5?23). Our results confirmed that the Hamash region is one of the most important gold-bearing sites, with gold concentrations ranging from 0.027 up to 57.20 ppm. Furthermore, the current contribution highlighted four stages in the paragenetic sequence of the recorded ores, including magmatic, metamorphic, hydrothermal, and supergene by origin, indicating a considered similarity with the known Egyptian gold sites regarding host rocks, mineralization style, alteration assemblage, and several ore mineral conditions.

Cím:Remote sensing and gravity investigations for barite detection in Neoproterozoic rocks in the Ariab area, Red Sea Hills, Sudan / Daoud, Abazar M.A.; Shebl, Ali; Abdelkader, Mohamed M.; Mohieldain, Ali Ahmed; Csámer, Árpád; Satti, Albarra M.N.; Rózsa, Péter

Megjegyzések:The increasing global demand for barite, driven by its geological importance and various industrial applications, advises the scientific community to improve attempts to identify and explore its deposits in different geological settings. This boost in interest aims to ensure sustainable supply by locating new sources and better understanding the conditions in which barite forms. This study presents an integrated approach using multispectral (Landsat 8 & 9, Sentinel-2, and ASTER) and hyperspectral (PRISMA) remote sensing data, along with geophysical gravity data, to improve the localization of barite deposits. Several image processing methods, including false colour composites, principal component analysis, band ratios, minimum noise fraction, and spectral analysis, were employed for the discrimination of barite deposits, revealing their association with felsic rocks (referred to as group C). Additionally, lineament extraction was performed using the recent and advanced different filters like Tilt Angle Horizontal Gradient (TAHG) and Enhanced Horizontal Gradient Amplitude (EHGA) on Bouguer anomalies, highlighting the structural control of barite deposits by the D3 deformation phase. Field investigations were conducted to validate our findings. Based on these field observations, the integrated methodology successfully mapped the distribution of barite and its host rocks, resulting in an updated geological map for barite distribution that can be used in further exploration phases. We strongly recommend the adopted approach and the newly proposed image combinations for preliminary explorations of barite in similar arid terrains.

Megjegyzések:Through various scales of observation, ranging from remote sensing data, field investigations, hand specimens, microscopic petrographic examinations, XRD, to SEM, indicators of various mineralization types are highlighted in Ras El-kharit-wadi Khashir (Eastern Desert, Egypt). Systematic remote sensing explo- ration of the mineralized zones is performed through integrating Sentinel 2 and ASTER datasets. False- color combinations, informative band ratios, relative absorption band depth, and CEM techniques were applied to discriminate rock units and various types of hydrothermal alterations. Moreover, ALOS PALSAR DEM was utilized to decipher the structural lineaments. Intensive field investigations confirmed hydrothermally altered zones that were picked out through remote sensing analysis and revealed that the study area is affected by cataclastic metamorphism to some extent. Magmatic and metamorphic rock types are represented by propylitic, phyllic, argillic, and silicification zones. Sericitization, chloritization, epidotization, kaolinitization, carbonatization, and silicification are recorded utilizing petrographic and remote sensing investigations. Moreover, the current study reveals that the detected alteration is the main reason for the apparent wide range of petrographic characteristics of each rock type and bearing several opaque minerals, such as pyrite, magnetite, titanomagnetite, chalcopyrite, arsenopyrite, covellite, galena, goethite, and hematite. Most of these opaques were identified using ore microscopy, XRD, and SEM. The distribution of hydrothermal alterations, representative samples bearing mineralization, structurally dissected zones are integrated to build a mineral potentiality map of the study area. The resultant MPM was confirmed via field survey and emphasized the usefulness of the current integrated approach besides highlighting about 125 km2 as potential mineralized zones.

Cím:PRISMA vs. Landsat 9 in lithological mapping - a K-fold Cross-Validation implementation with Random Forest / Ali Shebl, Dávid Abriha, Maher Dawoud, Mosaad Ali Hussein Ali, Arpád Csámer
Dátum:2024
ISSN:1110-9823 2090-2476
Megjegyzések:The selection of an optimal dataset is crucial for successful remote sensing analysis. The PRISMA hyperspectral sensor (with 240 spectral bands) and Landsat OLI-2 (boasting high dynamic resolution) offer robust data for various remote sensing applications, anticipating their increased demand in the coming years. However, despite their potential, we have not identified a rigorous evaluation of both datasets in geological applications utilizing Machine Learning Algorithms. Consequently, we conduct a comprehensive analysis using Random Forest, a widely-recommended machine learning algorithm, and employ K-fold cross-validation (with K = 2, 5, 10) with grid-search hyperparameter tuning for enhanced performance. Toward this aim, diverse image-processing ap- proaches, including Principal Component Analysis (PCA), Minimum Noise Fraction (MNF), and Independent Component Analysis (ICA), were applied to enhance feature selection and extraction. Subsequently, to ensure better performance of the RF algorithm, this study utilized well-distributed points instead of polygons to represent each target, thereby mitigating the effects of spatial autocorrelation. Our results reveal dataset- hyperparameter dependencies, with PRISMA mainly influenced by max_depth and Landsat 9 by max_features. Employing grid-search optimally balances dataset characteristics and data splitting (folds), generating accurate lithological maps across all K values. Notably, a significant hyperparameter shift at K = 10 produces the best lithological maps. Fieldwork and petrographic investigations validate the lithological maps, indicating PRISMA's slight superiority over Landsat OLI-2. Despite this, given the dataset nature and band count difference, we still advocate Landsat 9 as a potent multispectral input for future applications due to its superior radiometric resolution.

Megjegyzések:In essence, targeting mineralization necessitates exact structural delineation and thorough lithological mapping. The latter is still a challenge for geologists and its lack hinders meticulous exploration for various mineralizations. Here we show for the first time over a case study from Arabian Nubian Shield (ANS), the application of hyperspectral PRISMA (PRecursore IperSpettrale della Missione Applicativa) data for objective lithological mapping using the well-known Random Forest (RF), XGboost (XGB), and Support Vector Machine (SVM) algorithms. Our results manifested the worthiness of PRISMA data in further lithological mapping, especially with SVM with a resultant accuracy depending mainly on the input data combination. Upon field verification, the current research reveals the usefulness of PRISMA and its preceding four principal components in delivering a detailed lithological map for the study area. Additionally, the eligibility of RF, XGB, and SVM was confirmed in delivering acceptable results. SVM exceeds XGB and RF in their overall accuracy (95 %, 92 %, and 90 % for SVM, XGB, and RF respectively). Our research strongly recommends blending the vantages of Machine Learning Algorithms' (MLAs) objectivity and the wealth of PRISMA spectral coverage for further precise lithological mapping before applicable mineral exploration programs in similar terrains.

Cím:Impact of DEMs for Improvement Sentinel 2 Lithological Mapping Utilizing Support Vector Machine: A Case Study of Mineralized Fe-Ti-Rich Gabbroic Rocks from the South Eastern Desert of Egypt / Ali Shebl, Hatem M.

Megjegyzések:Fused remote sensing datasets have greatly contributed to enhancing lithological targets and providing significant information for mineral exploration. For instance, multispectral datasets can discriminate rock units through their unique spectral signatures. Digital Elevation Models (DEMs) could be an effective tool boosting lithological discrimination based mainly on their topographic variations. Consequently, the current study applied the power of the support vector machine (SVM) algorithm and the integrated Phased Array L-type band Synthetic Aperture Radar (PALSAR) DEM and multispectral Sentinel 2 data to: 1-Create an updated lithological map of a poorly mapped arid terrain (Khashir-Ras El-Kharit district, Eastern Desert of Egypt), and 2-Compare and assess the distribution of ferrogabbros with the aim of improving the localization of these rock bodies and investigating their mineral content. Our results enhanced the lithological mapping and revealed a better generalization of mineralized ferrogabbros when the input was a fused DEM with Sentinel 2 compared to the salt and pepper effect observed when adopting the Sentinel 2 solely as the input data. Additionally, the current research strongly recommends detailed exploration programs for Fe-Ti oxide ores within the gabbroic rocks delineated through the resultant thematic map. The ferrogabbros were subjected to a comprehensive analysis involving whole rock geochemistry, XRD, EDX, and lightreflecting investigations, which revealed the existence of magnetite, titanomagnetite, and hematite. The titanomagnetite crystals display subhedral morphology and exhibit fine- to medium-grained surfaces with irregular shapes. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis revealed the presence of magnetite and hematite in the concentrated Fe-Ti oxides. Additionally, the whole rock geochemistry highlighted the origin of the ferrogabbros and their proposed tectonic setting as an alkaline to calc-alkaline magma type that developed in a continental arc setting
