Beschreibung

Gold has been and will remain precious. Likewise, Remote Sensing is an extremely valuable and rapidily advancing tool which the author has utilized in exploring for gold in the Nuba Mountains of Sudan. Gold exploration in the Sudan has been known since Pharaonic times (4,000 years), but the sparse population and inhospitable climate caused the prospecting to be sporadic and ephemeral in manner. This book provides solutions to the inhospitable climate by remotely prospecting for the precious mineral utilizing techniques that are simple and easy to apply.
