This paper presents evidence on Mesozoic inversion of basin bounding faults within the Taleqan-Gajereh-Lar Paleograben (TGLP) in Central Alborz Range. For this purpose, well documented stratigraphy data across the TGLP together with the new acquired structural data on the geometry and kinematics of the paleograben basin bounding faults are utilized. The TGLP has evolved through the Early and Mi...

The use of the zonal-block model earth's crust for construction regional tectonic schemes and sections based on a complex geological geophysical data makes it possible to consider resulting maps as models. main elements such models are blocks with an ancient continental base interblock zones formed by complexes island arcs, accretionary prism, or oceanic crust. developed geotectonic Sea Okhotsk...

Permian brachiopods from Oman are well-known as valuable tools for correlation and palaeobiogeographical palaeoclimatic reconstructions. Here, we describe a new brachiopod fauna the Qarari Unit of allochthonous Batain Group in northeast Oman. Brachiopods were collected four localities: Wadi Khawr al Jaramah (WKJ), Jebel (JQ1), X (JX3) Shiya (SH11). The age fossiliferous localities is wellconstr...

binaloud mountains formed during collision of iran and turan plate in the late triassic time and caused shortening of the sedimentary cover because of cimmerian and alpine orogeny. the thrust sheets with different generations formed as a results of the binalood and alborz fold- thrust belts. northeast of iran that was already south coast of the divergent margin of the paleothetys ocean at this ...

In 1895 G. Schlumberger published the seal of Arkadios, protospatharios and strategos Bosporos. 2008, I. Jordanov second find similar found in Preslav. The Bosporos appeared Taktikon 975, by N. Oikonomides. According to written sources, Preslav was conquered Byzantium 971 remained under its control as long 986. Byzantine historian Leo Deacon, during negotiations with Prince Sviatoslav 971, Empe...

Abstract The present paper discusses the geochemical affinities, origin and ages of Jurassic granitoids Sanandaj-Sirjan Zone (SaSZ) in eastern part Zagros Thrust Zone. A multidisciplinary, integrated approach was carried out using existing granitoid data (major, trace, rare earth element isotopes) knowledge regional geology (geodynamic metamorphic setting), coupled with geophysical (magnetic su...

Abstract The Garedu Red Bed Formation (GRBF) of the northern Tabas Block (Central-East Iranian Microcontinent, CEIM) is a lithologically variable, up to 500-m-thick, predominantly continental unit. It rests gradually or unconformably on marine limestones Esfandiar Subgroup (Callovian–Oxfordian) and assigned Kimmeridgian–Tithonian. In lower part, it consists pebble- boulder-sized conglomerates/b...

Qadir Member of Nayband Formation, located in East Central Iran, has developed to a great extent. Investigation the lithofacies and sedimentary environment, resulted identification deltaic marine deposits. Based on field evidence facies features, consists two lithofacies, including carbonate siliciclastic facies. The were identified as having four sandstone Sr, Sh, Sp, St, three fine-grained FI...
