abstract

keybarkuh area is located 70 km southwest of khaf, khorasan razavi province. the study area is situated in northeastern lut block. the rock units in the area are paleozoic metamorphic rocks and cretaceous to tertiary subvolcanic intrusions intruded as dike, stock and batholith; their composition varies from granite to diorite. based on magnetic susceptibility, the intrusive rocks are divided into oxidant and reduced series. in this study, the oxidant intrusions are discussed. these intrusions are mostly high-k to shoshonitic and also meta-aluminous type. their magma formed in subduction magmatic arc and they belong to i-type granitoid series. enrichment of large ion lithophile elements (lile) such as rb, cs, k, ba, and th relative to high field stength elements (hfse) such as nb, zr, and ti supported the idea. enrichment of light rare earth elements (lree) and depletion of heavy rare earth elements (hree) are also typical of subduction magmatism. negative anomalies of eu/eu* can be attributed to the presence of residual plagioclase in a mantle source and contamination of magma by reduced continental crust. the amount of nb > 11 ppm, lower ratio of zr/nb 0.706), initial 143nd/144nd (> 0.512) and εnd (< -3.5) indicate that magma contaminated by reduced continental crust. hornblende biotite granodiorite porphyry dated using u-pb zircon geochronology at 43.44 ma (middle eocene). based on calculated tdm, magma derived from ancient slab with 820 ma age in the keybarkuh area, was affected by the highest continental crust contamination during its ascent.

tertiary intrusive granitoids within the lut block in the khorasan razavi and south khorasan provinces are mainly sub-volcanic with porphyry texture and their composition varies from granite to diorite but monzonite is dominant. with the exception of hired, these are classified as belonging to the magnetite-series of i-type granitoids. chemically, these rocks are meta-aluminous. those with mine...

granitoid rocks of kaje area, northwest ferdows, with the composition of diorite, monzodiorite, monzonite, monzogranite, syenogranite and granite, with calk-alkaline and high potassium affinities, have trace and rare earth element geochemical characteristics similar to those from subduction zones, belonging to i-type granitoid rocks. most of these rocks are oxidized (magnetite series), while on...
