abstract

study area is located in district of bajestan and ferdows cities, ne of iran. structurally, this area is part of lut block. the oldest exposed rocks, to the north of intrusive rocks and in eastern bajestan, are meta-chert, slate, quartzite, thin-bedded crystalline limestone and meta-argillite. the sedimentary units are: sardar formation (carboniferous), jamal formation (permian), sorkh shale and shotori formations (triassic), carbonateous rocks (cretaceous) and lithostratigraphically equivalent to kerman conglomerate (cretaceous-paleocene) are exposed in this area. based on relative age, magmatism in eastern bajestan and taherabad started after late cretaceous and it has been active and repeated during tertiary time. at least, three episodes of volcanic activities are recognized in this area. the first stage was mainly volcanic flow with mafic composition and minor intermediate. the second episode was mainly intermediate in composition. the third stage was changed to acid-intermediate in composition. since the plutonic rocks intruded the volcanic rocks, therefore they may be oligo-miocene age. bajestan intrusive rocks are granite-granodiorite-quartz monzonite. taherabad intrusive rocks are diorite-quartz diorite- monzonite-latite. bajestan intrusive rocks are reduced type (ilmenite series) and taherabad intrusive rocks are oxidized type (magnetite series).based on geochemical analysis including trace elements, ree and isotopic data, bajestan intrusive rocks formed in continental collision zone and the magma has crustal origin. taherabad intrusive rocks were formed in subduction zone and magma originated from oceanic crust. taherabad intrusive rock has exploration potential for cu-au and pb.

Petrology, tectonic setting and ore mineralization potential of basic rocks in north of Alvand complex, using amphibole and plagioclase composition

The Alvand complex (Hamedan province) comprises several bodies ranging from acidic to intermediate and basic compositions intruded in the regional metamorphic sequence of the area (the Hamedan phyllites) during various magmatic episodes in Jurassic. In northern part of the complex (the Cheshmeh-ghasaban area) there are some outcrops of hornblende gabbro and olivine gabbronorite. The olivine-gab...

Geochemistry, petrology, and mineralization in volcanic rocks located in south Neyshabour, NE Iran

This paper presents the new geochemical isotopes Sr and Nd, and the mineralization data for the south Neyshabour volcanic rocks located in NE Iran. Based on the chemical classifications, the studied rocks are basaltic trachy andesite, trachy andesite, trachyte, and trachy dacite in composition. All the analyzed volcanic rocks display enrichment in light rare earth elements (LREE) relative to th...

Petrogenesis and Tectonic Setting of the Young Volcanic Adakitic Rocks in Darehzereshk’s Hassan abad (SW Yazd)

Sciences, Kharazmi University Introduction Petrogenesis of continental magmatic arc is more complicated than oceanic arcs. Because some various parameters affect the composition of magmatism in the congenital margin, such as continental crust contamination, mixing with crustal magmas and the deformation phenomena from primary mantle magma (Martin et al., 2005; Eyuboglu et al., 2018; Pawley and...
