Hydrothermal alteration minerals with diagnostic spectral absorption properties in the visible and near-infrared (VNIR) through the shortwave infrared (SWIR) regions can be identified by multispectral and hyperspectral remote sensing data. Six Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection Radiometer (ASTER) bands in SWIR have been shown to be effective in the mapping of Al-OH, Fe-OH, Mg-OH group minerals. The five VNIR bands of Landsat-8 (L8) Operational Land Imager (OLI) are useful for discriminating ferric iron alteration minerals. In the absence of complete hyperspectral coverage area, an opportunity, however, exists to integrate ASTER and L8-OLI (AO) to compensate each other\u2019s shortcomings in covering area for mineral mapping. This study examines the potential of AO data in mineral mapping in an arid area of the Duolong porphyry Cu-Au deposit(Tibetan Plateau in China) by using spectral analysis techniques. Results show the following conclusions: (1) Combination of ASTER and L8-OLI data (AO) has more mineral information content than either alone; (2) The Duolong PCD alteration zones of phyllic, argillic and propylitic zones are mapped using ASTER SWIR bands and the iron-bearing mineral information is best mapped using AO VNIR bands; (3) The multispectral integration data of AO can provide a compensatory data of ASTER VNIR bands for iron-bearing mineral mapping in the arid and semi-arid areas.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/rs8110890","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2016,10,28]],"date-time":"2016-10-28T10:14:04Z","timestamp":1477649644000},"page":"890","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":84,"title":["Integrating Data of ASTER and Landsat-8 OLI (AO) for Hydrothermal Alteration Mineral Mapping in Duolong Porphyry Cu-Au Deposit, Tibetan Plateau, China"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"8","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2480-9774","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Tingbin","family":"Zhang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Earth Sciences, Chengdu University of Technology (CDUT), Chengdu 610059, China"},{"name":"Key Laboratory of Geoscience Spatial Information Technology, Ministry of Land and Resources of the People\u2019s Republic of China, Chengdu 610059, China"},{"name":"The Engineering&amp; Technical College of Chengdu University of Technology, Leshan 614000, China"}]},{"given":"Guihua","family":"Yi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Earth Sciences, Chengdu University of Technology (CDUT), Chengdu 610059, China"},{"name":"Key Laboratory of Geoscience Spatial Information Technology, Ministry of Land and Resources of the People\u2019s Republic of China, Chengdu 610059, China"}]},{"given":"Hongmei","family":"Li","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Earth Sciences, Chengdu University of Technology (CDUT), Chengdu 610059, China"}]},{"given":"Ziyi","family":"Wang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Earth Sciences, Chengdu University of Technology (CDUT), Chengdu 610059, China"}]},{"given":"Juxing","family":"Tang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Mineral Resources, Chinese Academy of Geological Sciences (CAGS), Beijing 100037, China"},{"name":"Key Laboratory of Metallogeny and Mineral Assessment, Ministry of Land and Resources of the People\u2019s Republic of China, Beijing 100037, China"}]},{"given":"Kanghui","family":"Zhong","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Earth Sciences, Chengdu University of Technology (CDUT), Chengdu 610059, China"}]},{"given":"Yubin","family":"Li","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Tibet Bureau of Geology and Mineral Exploration and Development, Lhasa 850000, China"}]},{"given":"Qin","family":"Wang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Earth Sciences, Chengdu University of Technology (CDUT), Chengdu 610059, China"}]},{"given":"Xiaojuan","family":"Bie","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"College of Earth Sciences, Chengdu University of Technology (CDUT), Chengdu 610059, China"},{"name":"Key Laboratory of Geoscience Spatial Information Technology, Ministry of Land and Resources of the People\u2019s Republic of China, Chengdu 610059, China"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2016,10,28]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"237","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jseaes.2003.11.001","article-title":"Application of the Crosta technique for porphyry copper alteration mapping, using ETM+ data in the southern part of the Iranian volcanic sedimentary belt","volume":"24","author":"Ranjbar","year":"2004","journal-title":"J.
