In The northern part of Kerman Volcanic Belt, southwest of Rafsanjan (Deh-Zahir area), a series of diabasic intrusives have intruded into the Eocene andesitic lava flows and pyroclastic rocks. These plutons occur as irregular shaped bodies (up to 8 m in diameter) and dikes (up to 4 m in thicknesses). They show ophitic, sub-ophitic, and porphyritic textures and their major minerals include plagi...

Alkaline volcanic rocks of the northwest of Marand with Plio-Quaternary age are located in the northern part of Urumieh-Dokhtar Magmatic Arc. These rocks have a distinct enrichment in LILE and LREE and depletion in HFSE (such as Ta and Nb) and high Ba/Ta and Ba/Nb ratios, which are among the characteristics of subduction zones. The majority of hornblenditic autholiths and hornblenditic xenolith...

The Tertiary volcanic rocks in the north and west of Birjand are dacite; andesite, basaltic andesite, trachyandesite and rhyolite.They belong to calc- alkaline from magmatic series. Mineralogcal, petrographcal and geochemical evidence show that they have formed in active continental margins. Most andesites and dacites are appeared as volcanic domes or subvolcanic dykes that injected older units...

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...
