Satellite-Based
Mineral Mapping & Exploration Intelligence

Turning spectral satellite data into actionable mineral exploration intelligence.

CurvAero applies multispectral and hyperspectral remote sensing techniques to support mineral exploration and geological characterization.

Early-stage regional screening

Know where to look before you go

By combining remote sensing with GIS and available geological information, CurvAero helps exploration teams prioritize areas for further investigation and reduce the time required for early stage regional screening.

What satellites can reveal

Satellite observations can help identify:

  • blur_onAlteration zones
  • ssid_chartMineral related spectral signatures
  • layersLithological variations
  • polylineStructural features
  • grainSurface characteristics associated with mineralization

Workflow

Our workflow can incorporate:

  • functionsSpectral indices
  • percentBand ratios
  • categoryImage classification
  • compressDimensionality reduction
  • databaseGeological datasets
  • psychologyMachine learning techniques

What we deliver

From spectral data to exploration targets

map

Mineral prospectivity maps

The area ranked by its potential for mineralization, so field work goes where it counts.

polyline

Structural feature extraction

Faults, fractures and lineaments traced across the study area.

blur_on

Alteration mineral mapping

Alteration zones mapped from their spectral signatures in multispectral and hyperspectral imagery.

track_changes

Exploration target identification

Areas prioritized for further investigation from the combined spectral, structural and geological evidence.

layers

Lithological classification

Rock units distinguished and classified across the area from their spectral response.

database

GIS databases and integrated interpretation

Results assembled in GIS and interpreted together with the available geological information.

ssid_chart

Spectral analysis

Spectral indices, band ratios and signature analysis applied to multispectral and hyperspectral data.
