An innovative approach has been developed to predict prospective areas for the exploration of roll-front uranium deposits. This method is based on the infiltration model of ore formation and incorporates the advanced exploration practices of roll-front uranium deposits in Kazakhstan, compared with global experi-ence. The approach employs publicly available satellite Earth observation data alongside global geological datasets. Applying this methodology has allowed the identification of prospective areas for roll-front uranium ore exploration and provided a brief characterization of the most significant ones. Special attention is given to large depressions conducive to infiltration conditions, ranging from regions of atmospheric water recharge in arid and semi-arid climates to sedimentary areas under reverse climatic conditions with favorable environ-ments for the formation of reductive geochemical zones. These zones are characterized by active sulfate-reduction processes mediated by microorganisms and the generation of hydrogen sulfide fluids.
