Detection of hydrothermal alteration zones (HAZs) associated with porphyry copper systems using remote sensing imagery is a crucial stage for discovering high potential zone of ore mineralization. Statistical model-based clustering methods have great potential for automatic and accurate detection of hydrothermal alteration minerals using hyperspectral remote sensing imagery. In this research, the Dirichlet Process based on Stick-Breaking (DPSB) model-based clustering algorithm was implemented to hyperion remote sensing imagery to discriminate HAZs associated with the Kuh-Panj porphyry copper deposit, south, Iran. The DPSB clustering algorithm was implemented and subsequently compared with the k-means algorithm, CLARA clustering, hierarchical clustering, Gaussian finite mixture model (GFMM), Gaussian model for high-dimensional (GMHD) and spectral clustering as well as spectral angle mapping (SAM). Results derived from the DPSB model-based clustering algorithm show 88.6% accuracy in distinguishing propylitic, argillic, advanced argillic, propylitic-argillic and phyllic alteration zones. The DPSB algorithm can be broadly implemented to hyperspectral remote sensing imagery for detecting alteration zones associated with porphyry systems.
