OROGENIC VOLCANISM OF THE SOUTHEASTERN LESSER CAUCASUS
PAHTEI-Procedings of Azerbaijan High Technical Educational InstitutionsThe article examines the formation of the southeastern area of the Lesser Caucasus and the distribution of rocks associated with it. The N-Morb and AFC (assimilation-fractional crystallization) methods were applied to the samples of the mentioned area. Through this, the chemical composition of the samples and the transformation processes over time were

Geodynamic evolution of the Lesser Caucasus as a metallogenic province
Scientific PetroleumThe paper investigates the evolution in terms of geodynamical processes that played significant role in the formation of the Lesser Caucasus metallogenic province. Based on the geodynamic and paleotectonic data, Northern Iran and the Lesser Caucasus had an oceanic basin during the Permian-Triassic and were closed in the Upper Triassic, separating the ...

Multiproxy evidence for environmental stability in the Lesser Caucasus during the Late Pleistocene
Quaternary Science ReviewsThe Lesser Caucasus, situated between Asia and Europe, has long been recognised as a key region for the study of human evolution in terms of the timing and routes of dispersal, as well as, ecological adaptations. In particular, scholars have argued whether stable environments persisted in the region throughout the last glaciation, serving as a refugium

Formation of the Late Cenozoic volcanic complexes of the Lesser Caucasus
Geotectonics, 2017The paper considers the role of the lithospheric mantle and asthenosphere during the Late Cenozoic collision volcanism of the Lesser Caucasus. The results of petrogeochemical studies show that the products of volcanism of the West Volcanic Zone of Armenia and the calc-alkaline andesite–dacite–rhyodacite complex of the Neogene Kelbadzhar and Karabakh ...

Active tectonics in the Lesser Caucasus: Coexistence of compressive and extensional structures
Tectonics, 1993Detailed SPOT image analysis which completed field data and a microseismicity study was done on the central Caucasian mountain belt (Georgia, Armenia, and eastern Turkey), north of the front of the Arabian collision in order to clarify the relationships between compression, extension, and volcanism.

A Contribution to the History of the Social Structure of the Population of the Lesser Caucasus
Soviet Anthropology and Archeology, 1970The ancient social structure of the peoples of Azerbaidjan has not been adequately studied. In the absence of direct evidence and written sources, the researcher has to base his work on residual phenomena discovered by ethnographic investigation. But because of the paucity of ethnographic data, the problem of reconstructing the remote social past of ...

Assessment of the Tourism–Recreation Potential of the Landscapes of the Lesser Caucasus
SCIENTIFIC WORKThe Lesser Caucasus Mountains represent a complex mountainous system that occupies a leading position in the physical–geographical regionalization of Azerbaijan. This area is distinguished by its diverse relief, rich geological structure, climatic variability, multifaceted landscape complexes, water resources, and unique biological diversity.

Radiolarian dating of the sedimentary cover of Sevan ophiolite (Armenia, Lesser Caucasus
2010Age data of Armenian ophiolites are of great importance for understanding the palaeogeographic and geodynamic evolution of Tethys in the Caucasus area and for lateral correlations of Tethyan ophiolitic belts in the Middle East area. Moderately well-preserved radiolarian assemblages obtained during this study from the Sarinar section of eastern Armenia ...
