Abstract: This article deals with the use of remote sensing with Aster and Landsat 9 imagery for mapping hydrothermal alteration minerals and oxides in relation to mineralization. Aster VNIR (Visible and Near Infrared) and SWIR (Mean Infrared) data are used to calculate PCA (Principal Component Analysis), RBD (Relative Band Depth) and BR (Band Ratio). These different parameters are used to highlight the groups of hydrothermal alteration minerals and oxides. Landsat data are used for mapping lithological units using PCA and BR. The identified mining areas coincide with the gold planning sites of Toumka and Lellé and allow to know the interesting areas for future mining prospecting campaigns in the departments of Abtouyour and Guéra (Guéra province).
