This investigation infers mineralogical study of the Dionysius crater of Moon using hyperspectral data of Moon Mineralogy Mapper (M3) from Chandrayaan-1 mission. Band ratio technique has been used to generate mineralogical map of the crater. The crater is located at Mare-Highland boundary and exposes material from Mare and highland area. Central and western part of the crater shows presence of Fe-spinel bearing mineralogy which belongs to Mg-suit of highland rock material and western rim exposes high calcium pyroxene bearing material which represents basalt at the rim of Mare Tranquillitatis.
