I don't know about meta-analysis of remote sensing finding gold. I guess statistical searches on data are worth a try, but gold rocks have been remotely sensed for 35 years now. It is not new. Unfortunately the associated minerals which map easily by IR are very common over non gold rocks too. No way they can see gold itself from space or even low flying aircraft measuring every reflected wave there is.. Even 200 ounces per tonne in exposed rock might not register on any equipment we know of unless it flew at 0.25 kms per hour 2 feet above the ground. There is a chance that multi spectral may be able to see patterns in emanations from vegetation and rocks that blend certain element signatures that predominate over gold deposits in some way. Gold itself may be a misunderstanding. They may target gold, but the patterns are not emanating from gold itself. Can't be. Maybe some ratio of alteration minerals to accessory minerals might work in some kind of metafactor analysis in some ways in certain terranes.

The main thing emanating from most new technologies is hyperbolite.

Find a remote sensing tool for investment money and you will have it made in shade.
