Objective Regolith-Landform Mapping in a Regolith Dominated Terrain to Inform Mineral Exploration [PDF]
An objective method for generating statistically sound objective regolith-landform maps using widely accessible digital topographic and geophysical data without requiring specific regional knowledge is demonstrated and has application as a first pass ...

A Semi Automated Technique to Regolith-Landform mapping in West Africa. [PDF]
Large regional airborne surveys have been flown over much of Nigeria, Niger and Ghana the data collected (mag spec and gamma radiometrics) in conjunction with Landsat ETM7+ and Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM) data sets are being used to create Regolith- Landform maps.

ASTER Mineral Classification for Regolith Mapping in Tick Hill Mount Isa, Northwest Queensland [PDF]
DOI: 10.17014/ijog.4.2.97-109This paper analyzed the mineral maps of AlOH bearing minerals and iron oxide using ASTER imagery in Tick Hill, Mount Isa, northwestern part of Queensland, as a guide for mapping the regolith unit within the area. Tick Hill is

Abstract We have studied the regolith landform distribution in the area of Gaoua, western Burkina Faso, using an integration of geophysical and remote sensing data. Concentration maps of K, Th, U, as well as their ratios, were computed from airborne gamma-ray spectrometry data to assess the geochemical composition of the regolith.

Abstract Rock weathering impacts global nutrient cycles but factoring intrinsic properties of bedrock into weathering models remains a challenge. Here we show that two common tracers of silicate weathering—uranium (U) activity ratios and lithium (Li) isotope ratios of river solutes—inform lithology‐specific modes of landscape denudation.

Abstract Maars are volcanoes with a central crater surrounded by an ejecta ring formed through surface explosive processes from underlying magma interacting with fluids. The study of terrestrial maar volcanoes, as analogs to explosive volcanic vents on the Moon and other planets, can improve our understanding of planetary volcanism and evolution.

Abstract This work presents geomorphological analyses of an area at the boundary between Arcadia Planitia and northern Amazonis Planitia, situated in the northern mid‐latitudes of Mars. Recent studies have indicated the presence of substantial volumes of near‐surface excess ice in Arcadia Planitia, making this region a promising candidate for future ...
