There are scattered exposures of young volcanic rocks in Hamun Lake Area in south western and north western of Zabol in east of Iran. The microscopic evidences and geochemical analysis show that these rocks are olivine basalt and basalt to trachy basalt. The main textures of these rocks are porphyry, microlitic porphyry and vesicular. The main phenocrysts of these rocks are olivine, clinopyroxe...

Dodehak granitoid stock with tonalite to granodiorite compos ition is exposed south of Dodehak vi llage, north of Ab-e-Gann (Mahalat) in Urumieh-Dorhtar volcanic belt of Iran. Based on petrography and point analysis (EPMA). plagioclase crystals show nonnal zoning with graph ic tex.ture is present. Samples from SE of the intrus ion are different and myrmekite texture is present in the rocks...

The study area is located about 45 km of southwest Neyshabour and east of Arghash village. Both intrusive and volcanic rocks are exposed in the study area and they are intensively altered due to hydrothermal fluid. The alteration zoning in the study area consists of potassic, sericitic, carbonatization, silicification and propylitic. More than 10 intrusive rocks with composition in the range of...

The study area is located in Central Iranian volcano-plutonic copper belt (Dehaj-Sarduiyeh belt) about 42 Km northeast of Shahrbabak in Kerman Province. Based on petrographic studies, extrusive rocks have the composition from trachyandesite, andesite basaltic and andesite to dacite with Eocene age. Mineralogically, the rocks contain plagioclase, amphibole, biotite and quartz. Chlorite, calcite,...

The study subvolcanic intrusion, comprising syenodiorite, monzonite and quartz-monzonite, is cropped out in Talkh-rud valley located in the northeast of Damavand volcano flank. This sub-volcanic intrusion possesses porphyritic texture and consists of plagioclase, alkali feldspars, phelogopite, amphibole, clinopyroxene, apatite and titanomagnetite. Evidences of disequilibrium such as zoning and ...
