Continental crust generated in oceanic arcs
Thin oceanic crust is formed by decompression melting of the upper mantle at mid-ocean ridges, but the origin of the thick and buoyant continental crust is enigmatic. Juvenile continental crust may form from magmas erupted above intraoceanic subduction zones, where oceanic lithosphere subducts beneath other oceanic lithosphere. However, it is unclear why the subduction of dominantly basaltic oc...
متن کاملTectonic evolution of the Khoy ophiolitic complex, NW Iran
The Khoy Ophiolitic Complex (KOC) as a part of Tethyan, Izmir-Ankara- Erzincan and Bitlis-Zagros sutures of South East (SE) Turkey is broadly exposed around Khoy region (NW Iran). This complex comprises dismembered fragments of mantle lithosphere, obducted oceanic lithosphere and parts of volcanic arc remnants. The Khoy Ophiolitic Complex can be structurally divided into two major eastern and w...
متن کاملPetrological and geodynamical constraints of Chaldoran basaltic rocks, NW of Iran: evidence from geochemical characteristics
Chaldoran area in NW of Iran has Mesozoic oceanic crust basement. The studied rocks of this region can be divided into three groups: ophiolitic gabbros and pillow lavas, ophiolitic volcanoclastics and Eocene lava flows. Ophiolitic mafic rocks show continental volcanic arc natures and Eocene lava flow shows OIB-like nature. During the Mesozoic,the Chaldoran region was situated in the active cont...
متن کاملژئوشیمی و سنگشناسی سنگهای آتشفشانی شمالشرق نراق: ماگماتیسم جزایر قوسی یا حواشی قارهای فعال؟
The tectonic settings for the Urumieh-Dokhtar volcanic-plutonic belt provided by different reaserchers including active continental margin rift and post collisional settings. Geochemical and tectonic studies indicate that this belt belongs to the active continental margin. Basaltic andesite, andesite, trachy andesite, trachy dacite and dacitic rocks in NE Naragh, of the Urumieh-Dokhtar magmatic...
متن کاملGeochemistry of gabbro sills in the crust–mantle transition zone of the Oman ophiolite: implications for the origin of the oceanic lower crust
Ž . Gabbroic sills intruding dunite in the crust–mantle transition zone MTZ of the Oman ophiolite have textures and compositions very similar to those in modally layered gabbros that form the lower part of the gabbro section in the ophiolite, and different from those in non-layered gabbros near the dike–gabbro transition. The presence of gabbroic sills in the MTZ indicates that modally layered ...
