Geospatial analysis predicts mineralization in the Polar Urals, suggesting new exploration areas.

This research aims to utilize satellite survey data to identify ore-prospective sites for uranium-molybdenum and chromite-platinum mineralization.
Developed methods for analyzing satellite, gravimetric, and magnetometric data
Interpreted multispectral satellite imagery from ASTER, Landsat, Canopus-PSS, and Resurs-P
Mapped structural elements that influence mineralization
Identified metasomatic altered rock zones through infrared spectral analysis
Revealed significant structural elements controlling mineralization locations
Identified large areas suitable for further exploration and ground verification
Localized ore-prospective sites within specified nomenclature sheets (R-42, Q-42)

Milovsky et al. (2025) studied this question.
