| Abstract | ||||
| Black Sand is a kind of sand that is black in color. Detecting Black Sand reserves and its economic mineral constituents occurring at the outpourings of the Nile Delta in Egypt was initially determined based on Mineralogical and Geochemical/ airborne geophysical prospective and ground follow up, such detection methods in this case are time, cost, and manpower consuming. This paper studies how to minimize involved resources of detecting Black Sand in different locations in Egypt using recent technologies of Remote Sensing and GIS as a preparative step ahead to field visits & studies | ||||
