Petrogenesis and dating of Doran and Shah Bolaghi intrusions: Implications for post-collisional sodic and high-silica granitic magmatism [PDF]
IntroductionThe Precambrian-Early Cambrian magmatism in Iran includes magmatic rocks in the central, northwestern (e.g. Tekab-Zanjan zone), and northeastern parts of the Iranian plate.

Petrography and isotope-geochemistry of the Bayandor Formation dolomites at the type section, south-west of the Zanjan [PDF]
The Late Precambrian Bayandor Formation has a thickness of 402 m and consists of shale and sandstone with dolomite interlayers (with a thickness of about 2 to 8 m) in the type section of the south-west of Zanjan. Based on fieldwork studies lithofacies of

Spectroscopic Insights Into Ferromanganese Crust Formation and Diagenesis
Marine ferromanganese deposits, often called the scavengers of the sea, adsorb and coprecipitate with a wide range of metals of great interest for paleo‐environmental reconstructions and economic geology.

Marine Anoxia and Ocean Acidification During the End‐Permian Extinction
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.

Biomineralization is a generic term used to indicate biological‐mediated mineral formation. In carbonate mineralization, nucleation of crystals can be: (1) controlled directly by the organisms, like in the skeletal formation of most metazoans; (2) induced by microbial communities, by indirect precipitation mediated by their metabolic activities; or (3)

40Ar ∕ 39Ar age constraints on the formation of fluid-rich quartz veins from the NW Rhenohercynian zone (Rursee area, Germany) [PDF]
A substantial part of the subsurface geology in northwestern and central Europe is defined by the late Palaeozoic Variscan Orogeny (∼ 350 Ma). Our focus is mainly on veining in anchimetamorphic sedimentary rocks affected by this orogeny.
