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 tool for mineral exploration in regolith dominated terrains.

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.

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.

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

Gridmapping the northern plains of Mars: Geomorphological, Radar and Water-Equivalent Hydrogen results from Arcadia Plantia [PDF]
A project of mapping ice-related landforms was undertaken to understand the role of sub-surface ice in the northern plains. This work is the first continuous regional mapping from CTX (“ConTeXt Camera”, 6 m/pixel; Malin et al., 2007) imagery in Arcadia ...

Geogenic factors as drivers of microbial community diversity in soils overlying polymetallic deposits [PDF]
This study shows that the geogenic factors landform, lithology, and underlying mineral deposits (expressed by elevated metal concentrations in overlying soils) are key drivers of microbial community diversity in naturally metal-rich Australian soils with

Pleistocene plateau ice fields in the High Atlas, Morocco [PDF]
Large ice fields (>25 km² ) formed over the Tazaghart and Iouzagner plateaux of the High Atlas, Morocco, during the Late Pleistocene. The plateau ice fields were drained by large valley glaciers forming a series of moraine assemblages. Four moraine units
