Towards Multiscale and Multisource Remote Sensing Mineral Exploration Using RPAS: A Case Study in the Lofdal Carbonatite-Hosted REE Deposit, Namibia

Towards Multiscale and Multisource Remote Sensing Mineral Exploration Using RPAS: A Case Study in the Lofdal Carbonatite-Hosted REE Deposit, Namibia

Traditional exploration techniques usually rely on extensive field work supported by geophysical ground surveying. However, this approach can be limited by several factors such as field accessibility, financial cost, area size, climate, and public disapproval. We recommend the use of multiscale hype...
