The identification and characterization of strategic mineral resources remain a critical challenge for developing countries such as Cameroon, where large portions of the territory are still insufficiently explored. This situation is particularly evident in the northern region, which hosts significant occurrences of carbonate minerals (e.g., calcite, dolomite) and silicate minerals (e.g., quartz, feldspars), both of which are of considerable importance for industrial applications. This study evaluated the effectiveness of ASTER (Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection Radiometer) satellite imagery […] Read more at https://mjcellpress.com/article/mjes05/.
