Based on specific well‐exposed rocks useful for high‐quality remote sensing interpretation in the gold‐prospecting area in the eastern Tianshan, this paper gives a detailed description of a remote sensing model for metallogenic prediction. The model reveals that multi‐spectral remote sensing data are integrated with high‐resolution remote sensing data, and enhanced extraction and visual description of weak remote sensing information are used for prospecting. This model has tested in the given gold deposit, and used successfully in Au‐Cu prospecting in the Kalatage area.
