Geology, Geochemistry, and Geochronology of the Giant Rio Tinto VMS Deposit, Iberian Pyrite Belt, Spain

Caio Ribeiro de Mello et al.

Summary: The Rio Tinto deposit is a massive volcanogenic massive sulfide deposit with abundant pyrite-rich massive sulfides and mineralized stockwork. It is divided into three lithostratigraphic groups and four major units, reflecting the evolution of a depositional environment and the different phases of volcanic activity. The deposit contains two styles of mineralization, replacive ores hosted by felsic rocks and shale-hosted exhalative mineralization. The lithogeochemical data show differences between the subunits and suggest the potential for discriminating between fertile and barren volcanic domes.

Monitoring Mining Activities Using Sentinel-1A InSAR Coherence in Open-Pit Coal Mines

Lili Wang et al.

Summary: Long-term continuous monitoring of open-pit coal mines is crucial for planning and managing mining operations, evaluating environmental impact, and supervising illegal mining activities. Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) technology can effectively monitor open-pit mines with sparse vegetation and bare rock. Results from this study demonstrate the efficacy of using NDAI and RGB composite techniques to monitor mining activities in open-pit mines over a period of time.

Copernicus data to boost raw material source management: Illustrations from the RawMatCop programme

Sara Kasmaeeyazdi et al.

Summary: Earth Observation (EO) data can be a crucial tool for transforming the raw materials sector by improving operational efficiency and enabling exploration for new deposits. The Sentinel satellites from the European Copernicus program offer significant potential for the sector, covering various stages of the mining cycle. The RawMatCop program showcases cost-effective applications and addresses environmental and social issues in the mining industry.

Multi-scale deformation monitoring with Sentinel-1 InSAR analyses along the Middle Route of the South-North Water Diversion Project in China

Jie Dong et al.

Summary: InSAR analysis of the Middle Route canal of the South-North Water Diversion Project showed overall stability, with some sections experiencing significant embankment deformation or land subsidence, particularly in high-filled sections. Additionally, severe uneven land subsidence along the Tianjin Branch Route was identified as a significant threat to the long-term safety of local water transfer operations.

IW Sentinel-1 satellite scenes for the investigation of mine slope stability: experiences from the Riacho dos Machados gold mine (Brazil)

Marcos Eduardo Hartwig et al.

Summary: PSI has been widely used in predicting instabilities in open pit mines, with Sentinel-1 radar mission providing a broad picture of LOS deformation phenomena. To monitor deformation induced by mining activities, LOS deformation maps with millimeter accuracy need to be delivered at least every 12 days.
