Abstarct: Abstract The steel industry is one of the infrastructure industries in the each country that mainly requires iron ore. Undoubtedly, all of iron mines that have been outcrop on the surface are known and some of them are running out of reserves. Therefore, it is more necessary to use different exploration methods to find consumables at deeper. In this study, geological data, remote sensing and airborne magnetometry and, in the next step, terrestrial magnetism has been used to identify magnetic anomalies in the exploration area which is located in the west of Sirjan city in Kerman province. baxsed on the geological data, faults map was extracted and the areas related to the igneous rocks were separated. Also, in order to identify intrusive rocks and extract and reveal the lineaments, Landsat 9 and Sentinel-2 satellite data were used. Different processing methods such as Band ratio, Principal Component Analysis (PCA), and Spectral Angle Mapper (SAM) were used to process satellite image data, and for detail exploration, some promising area were identified and introduced. Airborne magnetometry method was also used in this research. To processing these data, various filters such as; reduction to the pole, upward and downward continuation of the magnetic field, vertical derivative, and analytical signal were used. baxsed on the simultaneous interpretation and integration of the results of the mentioned methods, promising areas were introduced to terrestrial magnetometry surveying. baxsed on magnetic anomaly map and the results, there is a main magnetic anomaly with northeast-southwest extension, which is divided into smaller parts by several faults. After observations and field visit of the exploratory area and anomaly checking, three exploratory boreholes were proposed for drilling.
