Should I use mantel test to test for signifance between [nxm] matrices?

I was looking into the Mantel test, but I'm worried that I was going to get myself into a pitfall.
I read that it would be erronous to use a mantel test for datasets spatial auto-correlation, and I'm not sure if my dataset (I've included an image) falls into this category.
Essetially, what I'm trying to do is to decompose my matrix into vectors which I can multiply together to retrive an analog to the 2d matrix. I want to apply a test to show that there is no significant difference between the original matrix and the matrix that I got from the vector multiplication.
Would the Mantel test show that, or would it be erronous? If so, what test should I apply to test for significance between matrices.
Thanks in advnace!

Yes, you derived the second matrix from the original by algebraic operations. You didn't get it without knowledge how it was created. In my opinion, the latter were a situation for a statistical test, the first maybe for numerical optimization.

Agree w/ @Torsten; this is not a statistical test, but...since Mantel is an application of regression, I think you could use the computed statistic as a performance measure similar to the Pearson correlation; you just can't draw any statistical conclusions regarding the expected value. It, like Pearson, is an R of [-1 1]; one presumes essentially 1.0 will be the result if the reconstruction is good.
