  In this research article, we have demonstrated how spectrometric properties of diagnostic absorption features of rocks imprinted in their reflectance spectra can be used to delineate economic rocks (limestone, bauxite and gossans) from the adjacent country rocks. Spectral features or absorption features of rocks, discussed in this paper, are identified based on the comparative analysis of spectral feature of diagnostic constituent minerals of these rocks. It has also been observed that the each economic rock can be separated from their respective “background” country rock(s) based on the combination of certain spectrometric properties (wavelength of absorption feature and asymmetry) of their respective diagnostic absorption features imprinted in their reflectance spectra. The study also revealed that the separability of these economic rocks from their respective host rock .. View More»
