  • Provides detailed information on mineralogical composition and

microstructure of rocks

  • Enables characterization of rock type and rock forming processes
  • Spatial scale comparable to “traditional” thin section
  • Input in predictive modeling of rock chemistry, e.g. ore grade, and
  • ther physical-chemical parameters

USE OF HIGH SPATIAL RESOLUTION IR IMAGERY

SLIDE 5
  • Image-sizes are typically large (> 1 GB per raw image)
  • Images contain many pixels ( ~ 1 million per image) and bands

(288)

  • Easy generation of large volumes of image data (1 image

acquired in ~5 minutes, incl. sample preparation)

  • Interpretation of imagery is labor intensive and time consuming

(and often subjective)

PROBLEM

Methods are needed for rapid assessment of mineralogical composition

Many strategies involve spectral matching of image and reference spectra and thresholding, e.g. Spectral Angle Mapper Limitations of these methods:

  • A prioiry knowledge of scene is required for the selection of

reference spectra

  • Matching statistics doesn’t show which parts of the spectrum

match best (hull shape vs. absorption feature) and which do not

  • Selection of threshold for a “match” is rather subjective

INTERPRETATION OF HYPERSPECTRAL IMAGERY

SLIDE 9

MATCHING OF IMAGE AND REFERENCE SPECTRA

Is this a good match?

Molecular bond

slide-10
SLIDE 10
  • Wavelength position of absorption features is used as the

dominant spectral charateristic in the interpretation of reflectance spectra

  • It is directly related to molecular bond in crystal lattice and often

specific to (groups) of minerals

  • This information is extracted from wavelength images calculated

from the IR imagery

  • A decision tree is used for classification of the wavelength

imagery

APPROACH IN THIS STUDY

slide-11
SLIDE 11

CALCULATION OF WAVELENGTH POSITION

where w(x) is the interpolated reflectance value atposition x; x is the wavelength position in μm; a,b,c are the coefficients of the parabola function. where wmin is the interpolated wavelength position at minimum reflectance; a,b is the coefficients of the parabola function. where depth is the interpolated depth of absorption feature.

  • Only for exploratory analysis -> no classified mineral map
  • Small variation in wavelength positions often not visible
  • Deep absorption features dominate over shallow features
