Funding Agency: NASA; Period 2023-2026 We are evaluating the lithologic mapping capabilities of EMIT, their application for identifying mineralization in arid and hyperarid crystalline terrains, and their potential contribution to our understanding of the accretionary and post-accretionary history of areas under investigation. We selected as our test sites, the once contiguous Eastern Desert of Egypt …
