Introduction The Aliabad area is located in the northwest of Nain. Volcanic rocks of the Aliabad area have andesitic to rhyolitic composition. On the basis of petrographic investigations, porphyritic texture is the main texture of these rocks.

We report a petrographic and whole-rock geochemical characterization of the Cenozoic volcanic rocks cropping out in the Tafresh area of the central Urumieh-Dokhtar Magmatic Arc of Iran. The investigated rocks range mainly from basaltic andesite to dacite, and are considered to be genetically linked by (mostly) closed-system evolutionary processes ...

Biofacies Analysis of the Upper Oligocene Deposits (Qom Formation) in Urumieh Dokhtar Zone, Iran [PDF]
In order to determine the accurate paleoenvironmental conditions of Qom Formation, one stratigraphic section was studied in the Urumieh-Dokhtar Zone (West of Ashtian).

Abstract We propose a new model for the crust and upper mantle in Iran by joint inversion of gravity and magnetic fields, constrained with a seismic tomography model. We then calculate shear modulus from the Vs velocities and densities. The crust and mantle tomography model is first converted to a density cube through empirical and petrological ...

Abstract Sediments deposited into foreland basins can provide valuable insights related to the geological evolution of their hinterlands. Located in the peripheral foreland of the South Sistan Suture Zone (SE Iran), the Karvandar Basin exhibits a several‐kilometer‐thick shallow‐marine to continental clastic sedimentary sequence forming elongated sub ...

Abstract The interpretation of low‐temperature thermochronology (LTT) data in magmatic and metallogenic provinces requires a knowledge of the geothermal field through time. There, the challenge is differentiating rapid cooling following transient perturbations of the geotherms (reheating) from exhumational cooling induced by erosion during tectonic ...

A comprehensive dataset from petrographic characteristics to geochemical compositions of the mafic microgranular enclaves and granitoid host rocks from the Urumieh–Dokhtar Magmatic Arc (Iran) was presented. The new data provide significant insight into the evolution of magmatism in this area, which was tightly related to the Neotethyan closure.

Geochemistry and source of tourmaline from the Soheyle-Pakuh granitoid body (North of Nain) [PDF]
The Oligocene Soheyle Pakuh granitoid body is located in the Urumieh- Dokhtar zone, which composed predominately of granodiorite, diorite and granite with mafic, aplite dikes and iron-tourmaline veins.
