Results from this study are presented here.\nHannan has completed a regional 17,500 square kilometre stereographic geological remote study using detailed terrain corrected topographic elevation data and the Sentinel-2 super-spectral satellite data from the European Space Agency (ESA); The resultant product is a geological and target map highlighting the prospective mineralized trends over 120 kilometres of strike at the Company's sediment-hosted stratiform copper-silver project in north-eastern Peru (Figure 1) and identification of several new stratabound copper silver target areas for immediate follow-up in the field (Figures 2 and 3). Mr Michael Hudson states, \"The geological remote study over our copper-silver project in Peru has provided an economical and fast method to map multiple levels of prospective copper and silver rocks over a vast area using the next generation multispectral sensors such as Sentinel-2. Multiple structural and stratigraphic targets in the San Martin project area have been identified and are ready for immediate field follow-up.\"\nRemote sensing in geology is a data acquisition method that complements field observation, as it allows mapping of geological characteristics without physical contact of the areas being explored. Since the late 1970's geological remote sensing has evolved in parallel with the progression of satellite technology and has significantly improved remote sensed geological mapping. The basis of remote sensing is that each object on earth has a spectral signature that is a specific response to the radiation to which it is subjected. \nThe stud...
