Extraction and Integration of Geoanomalies Associated with Mineralization
The local and regional anomalies of mineral deposits from geology, geophysics, geochemistry as well as remote sensing image constitute a foundation for recognizing ore-forming regularities and estimating mineral potentials. In this paper, the basic concepts of extraction, connection, transform, and integration of the geoanomalies with mineralization from geology, geochemistry, and geophysics are elucidated. It emphasizes the significance of the bidirectional information transforms, that is, from characteristics of geoamomalous bodies to a spatial geoanomalous pattern, and from the pattern inferring the significance of a concrete geoanomalous body forming in the similar geological setting.
