Abstarct: The area under study in this thesis is 1:100000 geological sheet of Damghan which have been located in a huge belt of lead and zinc drawn from north to the northeast of the Iran. These lead and zinc resources are mostly Mississippian type. The goal of this study is providing a map of prospective points of lead and zinc within the mentioned sheet. Since recognizing necessary data to integrate is the first step to provide the prospective map thus four data laxyers including geology, remote sensing, aeromagnetic and structural geology were selected to be integrated in GIS. From the geological point of view the host rock of the Mississippian type are mostly dolomites, limestone as well as carbonated rocks and rarely sandstones whereas faults and fractures are major controllers.Therefore the 1:100000 scale geological map of Damghan was digitized and distinguished in terms of dolomites, limeston and other carbonated rocks as well as faults. In the matter of remote sensing carbonated areas were discerned by applying satellite Images of ASTER and Landset7 TM of using principle component analysis and band ratio technics. Linear structures also were discerned using suitable filters. Since these resources are related to faults and fractures so large faults were analyzed applying compatible filters on aeromagnetic data and were used as one of data laxyers after being digitized. Finally data laxyers being provided were integrated using Boolean logic, binary index overlay, multiclass index overlay and fuzzy logic. Then the prospectivity map of lead and zinc on each data model were presented. Lead and zinc mine indices were used to examine the utility of each of the maps and the best points to further exploration were specified on the maps. The methods baxsed on multiclass maps among used methods show a better examination of the area. Since the prospectivity map provided by integration of data laxyers by means of fuzzy logic are more compatible with the available indices in the area desired potential maps produced, some points were recommended for more exploration
