Petrogenesis of the Bir Madi gabbro-diorite and tonalite-granodiorite intrusions, South Eastern Desert, Egypt: Implications fo

The Neoproterozoic rocks of the Bir Madi area, south Eastern Desert, comprise a metagabbrodiorite complex (GDC) and a tonalite-granodiorite suite (TGrS). The GDC has a weak tholeiitic to strong calc-alkaline character and is made up of olivine gabbro, hornblende gabbro, diorite and monzodiorite. The olivine gabbro is characterized by abundance of augite and labradorite with pseudomorphic serpen...

سنگ‌نگاری، کانی‌شناسی و شیمی کانی سنگ‌های نفوذی بزمان، جنوب شرق ایران

The Bazman intrusive rocks are located in northwest of Iranshahr, south of Lut block, and above of Makran subduction zone. The Bazman intrusive rocks are composed of gabbro, diorite, monzodiorite, qurtze monzodiorite, granodiorite and granite. The Composition of clinopyroxenes is in the diopside-augite range and orthopyroxenes are enstatite. The studied amphiboles are classified as calcic (magn...

Minerals chemistry and geothermobarometry of Dourbeh and Nari intusive bodies of W Urumieyeh, NW Iran

The studied bodies are located in the west of Urumieyeh Lake and northeast of Oshnavieyeh, in the Sanandaj-Sirjan structural zone. Compositionaly, these bodies are formed from gabbro-diorite (Dourbeh) and granite (Nari). Gabbrodiorite rocks are composed of plagioclase (andesine to bytownite), amphibole (calcic group and magnesio-hornblende-tschermakite-hornblende type) and pyroxene (augite) as ...
