![]() The ability of hyperspectral remote sensing technology to detect and discriminate geologic materials has the advantages of expert level in terms of accuracy and speed, and expanding and developing an element sensing technology for smart mining is easy. Recently, hyperspectral remote sensing technology has attracted considerable attention as a technology that can replace the fieldwork of geological experts 9. ![]() However, until now, the collection of information on the mineral composition and distribution at a mine site relies almost entirely in site visual inspection by geologists and geochemical analysis of some rock samples 8. In other words, for smart mining, it is necessary to obtain information about the geological structure and mineral composition of the mining end in near real time. For automated smart mining, it is necessary to determine the value of rocks as minerals at the mine end site and also to figure out the spatial distribution of useful minerals in near real time. Smart mining enables optimal and efficient mining and very high level of safety by minimizing manpower input for mining, transportation, drilling and blasting through state of art sensing technologies and unmanned automation technology. Thus, major mining companies in the United States of America (USA) and Australia are developing and applying smart mining technologies, including unmanned mines 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7. ![]() Mines are typical harsh workplaces with high demand for unmanned and automated operations.
