[1] A series of sharp bends (oroclines) are recognized in the Paleozoic to early Mesozoic New England Orogen of eastern Australia. The exact geometry and origin of these bends is obscured by voluminous magmatism and is still debated. Here we present zircon U-Pb ages that confirm the lateral continuation of early Permian (296–288 Ma) granitoids and shed new light on the oroclinal structure. Orog...

The Aligoodarz granitoid occurs in Sanandaj-Sirjan Zone (SSZ), Western Iran. Tonalite, granodiorite and granite are the main rock types cropping out in the area. Comparison of Aligoodarz granitoid with Dehno and Boroujerd granitoids reveals several similarities in their chemical characteristics. Thus, the above mentioned granitoids can be assigned as a co-genetic magmatic suite, in which pluton...

sangan magnetite skarn mine is located 300 km southeast of mashhad, along the eastern part of khaf-drouneh volcanic-plutonic belt. granitoids from three areas within the sangan mine a, c-north and dardvay were studied. within the study area, three intrusive rocks including biotite-hornblende monzonite porphyry, biotite syenite and syenogranite were recognized. based on field cross cutting, abse...

When designing tabletop digital games, designers often draw inspiration from board games because of their similarities (e.g., spatial structure, social setting, and physical interaction). As part of our tabletop handheld augmented reality (THAR) games research, in which computer graphics content is rendered and registered on top of the players’ view of the physical world, we are motivated to un...

the lalezar granitoids crop out within volcanic successions of the urumieh-dokhtar magmatic assemblage (udma). these granitoids have a range from gabbro-diorites to granites in composition. the mineral compositions of the most felsic rocks are characterized by the abundances of na-plagioclase, quartz, alkali feldspar, biotite and hornblende. in the gabbro-diorite rocks, plagioclase (ca-rich), h...
