Rocks and ores are characterized by respective spectral features in the range from 400 to 2500nm. The spectral characteristics of altered rocks related to mineralization are the-basis of Airborn Fine-Split infrared Multispectral scanner (AFIMS) remote sensing search for resources. The test studies of mineral resources searching with AFIMS remote sensing for gold, polymetal deposits and oil-gas pools show that this method has great value in prospecting. Its application will give impetus to the development of remote sensing geology in China
