Abstract

Nowadays, exploration management, increasing productivity, and reducing exploration costs are among the most important issues in the detailed exploration stage of orebodies. A geographic information system (GIS) is an effective tool for gathering, storing, analyzing, updating, generating, integrating, and displaying geographic data and land reference. ArcGIS is one of the efficient and powerful GIS computer programs with numerous capabilities such as generating databases, managing the data and information, integrating the information, and generating different outputs in the form of various maps, charts, and tables. In this study, different exploratory layers with different types of information from the Dehshir orebody area were integrated into this software to determine the spread of metal and introduce the parts with higher anomalies for subsurface exploration. For this purpose, we used the information from remote sensing, topography, geomorphology, geology, and geophysics, and geochemistry studies in the form of exploratory layers.
