Garnet as a Proxy for Deciphering Polymetamorphic Histories: An Example From the Sanandaj‐Sirjan Zone of Iran [PDF]
ABSTRACT In the central sector of the Sanandaj‐Sirjan zone of Iran, the Triassic‐to‐Jurassic ‘Hamedan Phyllites’ metamorphic complex shows a polymetamorphic evolution characterised by a main Barrovian‐ to Buchan‐type garnet+staurolite+kyanite/andalusite regional sequence, locally overprinted by a low‐pressure thermal event generated ...

Tectonomagmatic settings of Jurassic granitoids in the Sanandaj-Sirjan Zone, Iran: A review [PDF]
Abstract The present paper discusses the geochemical affinities, origin and ages of Jurassic granitoids of the Sanandaj-Sirjan Zone (SaSZ) in the eastern part of the Zagros Thrust Zone. A multidisciplinary, integrated approach was carried out using existing granitoid geochemical data (major, trace, rare earth element and isotopes) and ...

A new tectonic scenario for the Sanandaj–Sirjan Zone (Iran)
Abstract Recent geochemical studies of volcanic rocks forming part of the ophiolites within the Zagros and Naien-Baft orogen indicate that most of them were developed as supra-subduction ophiolites in intra-oceanic island arc environments. Intra-oceanic island arcs and ophiolites now forming the Naien-Baft zone were emplaced southwestward onto the ...

Petrological Evolution of the Upper Mantle Beneath the Southern Sanandaj-Sirjan Zone: Evidence from Kuhshah Peridotite Massif, Southeast Iran [PDF]
The Kuhshah ultramafic complex is located in the south-east of Sanandaj-Sirjan metamorphic zone, near the probable remnants of Neotethys plate in Iran. It consists of highly depleted harzburgites, dunites, chromitite bands and altered gabbros.

Origin of tourmaline in micaschists of Gol-e-Gohar metamorphic complex from south-eastern Sanandaj-Sirjan Zone (Baft, Kerman Province) [PDF]
In Gol-e-Gohar micaschists from south-east Sanandaj-Sirjan Zone (Kerman province), there are tourmaline crystals which are enriched in Mg and Na (Mg: 1.830 a.p.f.u and Na: 0.680 a.p.f.u), and so, they are dravite in compositions belonging to alkaline ...

Contribution of ultramafic rocks in central Sanandaj-Sirjan zone to the characterizing of physio-chemical condition during initiation of subduction [PDF]
In the central part of the Sanandaj-Sirjan zone, there is an ultramafic rock exposure (hornblendite and pyroxenite) adjacent to Molataleb felsic complex completely located between Azna and Aligoodarz towns.

Diagenesis and Tectonic Setting of the Varcheh Intrusive Masses in Sanandaj-Sirjan Zone, Iran [PDF]
Varcheh intrusive masses of the Sanandaj-Sirjan zone (SSZ) are embedded in middle and upper cretaceous sedimentary rocks. The lithological composition of this complex is mostly olivine gabbro, monzogabbro, diorite, and monzodiorite with granular and ophitic textures.

The Eastern Khoy metamorphic complex of NW Iran: a Jurassic ophiolite or continuation of the Sanandaj–Sirjan Zone? [PDF]
The Khoy complex in NW Iran has been widely regarded to consist of both Jurassic and Cretaceous ophiolites, but whereas the western Late Cretaceous ophiolite is unequivocal the nature of the eastern Jurassic body has been unclear. Field observations show that the presumed eastern meta-ophiolite has no similarities to an ophiolite ...
