Remote Sensing and Image Processing in Mineralogy

Chapter 1 Principles of Mineralogy, Oil and Gas

It is well recognized that minerals are solidified by atoms. To comprehend, describe, and predict the manner of minerals, and rocks, which are clotted of minerals, or accumulation of thick mineral deposits over longest geological periods. Therefore, some elementary facts about atoms must be understood and how they behave. In this view, a full understanding of atom behaviors leads to mineral quantization theory. This chapter is devoted to building up the fundamental mineral quantization theory. In fact, majority of the research minerology work cannot explain probably how photon of remote sensing sensors interact with atom structure of every element. This forms complicated restriction in algorithm ...
