Purpose. Experimental studies using the technology of frequency-resonance processing and interpretation of remote sensing data of the Earth (RS) (satellite images) and photo images were conducted to study the internal structure of volcanos and kimberlite pipes. The experiments were conducted in the areas of location of the famous volcanoes in Kamchatka, Kunashir Island, in Italy, as well as at kimberlite pipes in Yakutia, Kingdom of Lesotho and Canada.
Design/methodology/approach. When carrying out the experimental work, the mobile technology was used, including modified methods of frequency-resonance processing and decoding of satellite images and photographs, vertical electric-resonance sounding (scanning) of the cross-section, as well as the method of integrated assessment of oil and gas prospects and ore potential of large exploration blocks and license areas. Separate methods of technology are based on the principles of the “substance” paradigm of geophysical research, the essence of which is to search for a specific (the one sought in each particular case) substance – oil, gas, gas condensate, gold, zinc, uranium, etc.
Findings. The results of the deep frequency-resonance sounding of the cross-section on research sites show that the roots of the examined channels of deep fluids and minerals migration (volcanoes, kimberlite pipes) can be located in the molten (liquid) layer of rocks, which is detected and fixed on the globe almost everywhere in the depth interval 194-225 km, as well as at depths of 470 km and 723 km. Within the three surveyed areas in Kamchatka, kimberlite pipes with inclusions of diamonds, a channel of the mineral matter migration were detected, and responses were recorded at hydrogen frequencies at small depth intervals. In the area of ​​the diamond deposit in Canada, local sites have been identified that are promising for the detection of diamonds and hydrocarbons. The discovery of kimberlite channels and the fixation of signals (responses) at the resonant frequencies of diamonds in the ocean and in areas of a number of volcanic complexes suggest that there are significantly more diamonds in the Earth than is commonly believed from the standpoint of modern concepts of their genesis and location of deposits. The materials of the research carried out in the area of ​​the Klyuchevskaya group of volcanoes in Kamchatka can be considered as confirmation of the assumptions that volcanic structures can be a source of hydrogen.
The practical significance and conclusions. Operatively conducted experimental studies have shown that the frequency-resonance method of Earth remote sensing data processing and interpreting can be used to study the deep structure of the Earth’s tectonic structures and to search for combustible and ore minerals. Additional testing of this technology in the surveyed areas indicates the possibility of operative detection and mapping with its help of anomaly of the “deposit” type (DTA) – “diamond bearing pipe”, “aquifer”, “gold deposit”, “uranium deposit” type, etc. . The frequency-resonance method of satellite images scanning also makes it possible to assess the depth and thickness of individual anomalous polarized layers of the “aquifer”, “gold-bearing mineralization”, “uranium mineralization”, type, etc. Vertical scanning allow also determine with acceptable accuracy the occurrence intervals of individual rock types (sedimentary and igneous), present in the cross-section. Mobile technology of frequency-resonance processing and decoding of satellite images and photo images can be used for operative detection and mapping of hydrogen accumulations in areas of intensive hydrogen degassing.
