Abstract

This article discusses the need for the development of Russia's mineral and raw material base to support the country's high-tech economy. Special attention is given to prospecting and mining of strategically important types of raw materials, such as titanium, tungsten, lithium, and others. The importance of securing resources from domestic sources, minimizing dependence on imports, is emphasized. The article describes remote survey methods, specifically the use of Earth remote sensing data, i.e. the satellite images, for prospecting and assessment of potential deposits. An analysis of satellite data of the Murmansk Oblast is conducted to identify the potential mineralization nodes. The methods used include interpretation of images using geological indexes. With their help, zones of geological interest can be identified, which can later be used in a full range of geological exploration activities.
