Shurab polymetal ore deposit is located in 77 km south of Ferdows in north of Lut structural zone. Geology of the area includes a Jurassic sedimentary rocks, comprises shale and sandstone of Shemshak Formation, Badamo limestone, and andesite, dacite, rhyodacite and rhyolite volcanic and subvolcanic-calc-alkaline Tertiary rocks as a hydrothermal mineralization host rock. In these rocks, minerali...

The Arvaneh volcanic cone at eastern part of the Sahand volcanic complex is located on SW of Bostanabad city. This cone having lava composition as dacite, dacitic andesite and rhyodacite, is formed eletted to young volcanic activity of the Sahand volcanism. Having various colours and textures form dominant composition of the lavas in the Petrographycally phenocrysts are plagioclase+hornblende+b...

The study area is situated within the Lut Block 50 Km northeast of Ferdows. The oldest exposed rocks are Cretaceous limestone. Kerman conglomerate cover the limestone. Dacite-rhyodacite lava and pyroclastic rocks erupted over Kerman conglomerate.  Volcanic activities took place at different time in Tertiary. The composition ranges between trachyandesite, andesite, andesite-basalt and rhyolitic ...

Metamorphic rocks in SW Arak composed from two groups including regional and contact metamorphism. Regional metamorphic rocks are composed of slate, phyllite and micaschists and locted in green-schist facies and contact metamorphic rocks are composed of spotted schist and hornfels respectively. Mineralogically, these rocks are composed of quartz, chlorite, muscovite, biotite and cordierite. Pet...
