Geochemistry of apatite in various felsic rocks of the Piranshahr plutonic complex: an approach to investigate magmatic evolution [PDF]
The felsic intrusive rocks in the Piranshahr plutonic complex consist of three groups: syenite, nepheline-syenite, and alkali-feldspar granite. They are co-genetic and formed approximately 40 million years ago.

Marcasite at the Permian‐Triassic Transition
Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.
