Abstract  

Recently, with the continuous development of domestic satellites, the quantity and the quality of remote sensing data have been improved observably, the needs of “Belt and Road initiative” in remote sensing geological investigation can be satisfied. In this paper, the authors carried out interpretation of geology and minerals in the southern part of Iran which is an area abundant of chromite based on GF-1 satellite data. The authors studied regional geological background and metallogenic condition and proposed the favorable areas for mineralization. Through the study of interpretation, it is found that the layered ultrabasic rocks in the northwest of Sorkband complex have a good prospect of chromite exploration, and it also verifies the good application effect of domestic GF-1 data in the overseas geological and mineral survey. This study is aimed at supporting the establishing of the system for domestic geological survey and making suggestions for mining enterprise.
