Abstract 1-Introduction Bazman volcano is located on Chgay - Makran magmatic arc. This magmatic arc with east-west trend is 500 km long and 150 km wide and extends from southeastern Iran to southwestern Pakistan. Early evolution of the Makran zone from the upper Oligocene to the upper Miocene is characterized by turbidite sediments deposited on the oceanic crust. There are several quaternary...

Spid pluton with Neogene age outcrop in the Urumieh-Dokhtar Magmatic belt. Amphibole in this intrusion is calcic and magmatic and its composition corresponds to magnesiohornblende to actinolite which reflects the type I granitoid. Geobarometry calculations show that the amphibole crystalized at pressure of 2.5 to 3.7 kbr corresponding to a depth of 8 to 12 km. Based on geothermometry of hornble...

The Bazman granitoid is located in the south margin of Lut block, and southeastern of Iran. It composed of granite, granodiorite, monzodiorite, quartz monzodiorite, diorite and gabbro. Plagioclase, feldspar, quartz, hornblende and biotite are the major minerals; sphen, apatite, zircon, magnetite and ilmenite are the main accessory minerals. Amphibole mineral chemistry is calcic in composition a...

The Middle Miocene Niyasar granitoid complex is located in west of Kashan and in the Urumieh – Dokhtar magmatic belt. Based on petrographic studies, the Niyasar complex is composed of tonalite, quartz-diorite and diorite intrusive rocks. These rocks are mainly composed of quartz, plagioclase, amphibole, biotite and K-feldspar. The amphiboles belonge to calcic group and vary in composiotion from...

The Plio- Quaternary volcanoes are located in the NE-Qorveh (Kurdistan) in the Qorveh-Takab volcanic belt, in the Hamedan-Tabriz Zone (HTZ). The volcanic rocks consist of basalt to olivine-basalt. The electron microprobe (EMP) analyses of pyroxenes show occurrence of one type of clinopyroxene, as diopside (Fs 2.65-6.42 En 40.44-50.47 Wo45.97-53.14) with Mg # = 84-98. The compositions of the pyr...

In southwest of the Jandaq City (northeast of Isfahan Province) and northwest of the Central-East Iranian Microcontinent (CEIM), the Eocene dykes with trachy-andesitic composition cross cut the quartz monzodioritic intrusion. The texture of these dykes is granular, intergranular and porphyritic. The studied dykes are composed of plagioclase (andesine and labradorite), clinopyroxene (diopside an...

The exposed volcanic rocks in south west of the Khoy area consist of basalts with minor amounts of plagioclase-phyric basalts. These rocks are composed of clinopyroxene plus plagioclase and plagioclase phenocrysts, respectively. The basaltic rocks are highly altered and contains high amounts of secondary minerals mainly chlorite and epidote. According to mineral chemistry, the composition of cl...
