Nosrat-Abad ophiolitic extrusive sequence, located in the Sistan Suture Zone, in south eastern Iran. The extrusive sequence, contains pillow lava, sheet flow and related volcanic-clastic breccias which have undergone low-grade metamorphism. This association shows calc alkaline to tholeiitic affinities. Interpretation of the geochemical data and behavior of the elements in different diagrams rev...

pillow lavas are locally conspicuous. A unit consisting of dark, thinly bedded sandstone and siltstone, lccally ranging to several hundred feet thick, is lowermost in the exposed section. The middle division consists of about 3,500 feet of mixed andesi.:e and basalt volcaniclastic rocks ~ lahar, tuff breccia, volcanic sandstone, and conglomeratic beds which rest on relatively thin, fossiliferou...

Terrestrial Subglacial Volcanism: Many terrestrial subglacial volcanic features have been identified in Iceland [1-3], British Columbia, Canada [4], the Tuva Republic, Russia [5], Alaska [6], and Antarctica [7]. These features are though to follow a typical sequence of events although interpretations and details may differ by author and/or location: a single volcanic vent or short fissure opens...

the noorabad-kermanshah ophiolite is part of eastern mediterranean-zagros-oman tethyan ophiolites, that this area is located in south-southwest of the main zagros thrust fault. this ophiolite consists of peridotites, serpentinites and pegmatite gabbros as mantle sequence whereas crustal sequences are composed of locally layered gabbros, isotropic gabbros, sheeted dike complex, basaltic to andes...
