Abstract

The Wadi El Allaqi area is the site of ancient and intermittent, recent activity in gold exploration and mining. The present work examines the application of remote sensing techniques to gold exploration under the natural conditions prevailing in this area. The geologic-lithologic units in the Wadi El Allaqi area have influenced the deposition of gold mineralizations. Rock units over 600 million years old act as hosts to the gold. Aerial photographs on a scale of 1:20,000 have been interpreted to delineate geologic-lithologic units, structural lineaments, and drainage and geomorphology. The results are compared with interpretations of Landsat imagery.

利用遥感技术在埃及瓦迪阿拉奇地区进行金矿勘探
Wadi El Allaqi地区是古代和间歇性的黄金勘探和开采活动的地点。本工作审查了在该地区普遍存在的自然条件下遥感技术在金矿勘探中的应用。瓦迪阿拉齐地区的地质岩性单元影响了金矿化的沉积。超过6亿年的岩石是黄金的寄主。1:20 000比例尺的航空照片已被解释为描绘地质-岩性单元、构造轮廓、排水和地貌。结果与陆地卫星图像的解译结果进行了比较。
