Title

HYPERSPECTRAL SIGNATURES, ELEMENTAL MAPPING AND PETRO-CHEMICAL CHARECTERISTICS OF STEATITE DEPOSIT AROUND PANDITANAHALLI VILLAGE, DHARWAR CRATON, KARNATAKA, INDIA

Abstract

Abstract Dharwar Craton is structurally controlled and highly deformed terrain which is rich in varied mineral deposits. It is known for mineral deposits like iron, gold, copper, manganese, chromium, uranium, asbestos, corundum, garnet and talc. Occurrences and good workable deposit of steatite around Panditanahalli village of Hassan district have been identified and demarcated. At present there is no mining activity but it was believed that the first attempt of steatite mining at Panditanahalli was done by Cholas dynasty. Steatite is a talcose rich compact metamorphic rock. They are well known for their heat resistant and other physical properties so it’s been used in fireplace liners, cookware, electronic insulator, ovens, masonry heaters, and carvings etc. Fresh samples of steatite, hornblendite, gabbro and pegmatite gneiss were randomly collected in the field through GTC (Ground Truth Check). Rock samples were studied under Transmitted light microscope, Reflected light microscope, SEM-EDX and Spectro-Radiometer. Petrography helped to know the minerals which are associated with steatite, SEM-EDX studies helped to know the high Mg elemental percentage present in the given steatite sample. Spectral signatures of rock sample were studied by Spectro-Radiometer (Spectral Evolution SR-3500) instrument. The spectral signatures of the collected samples were derived in laboratory environment to achieve better accuracy. The present work is aimed for studying the petrological, geochemical and hyperspectral signatures of steatite and their associated litho units. The final results highlight the minerals present in steatite and spectral characters of steatite for mapping and demarcating the deposit in the study area and also for better mapping in similar areas around Precambrian terrains, Dharwar Cratonic Group(DCG) of Karnataka State.
