biglar permo-triassic bauxite deposit is located in ~15 km northwest of abgarm, southwest of ghazvin province, west of central iran. it consists of 8 stratiform and discontinuous bauxite lenses lying along the contact of ruteh (permian) and elika (triassic) carbonate formations. petrographically, the bauxite ores exhibit collomorphic-fluidal, pseudo-breccia, pseudo-porphyritic, panidio-morphic-...

Upper Triassic rocks in northwestern Argentina preserve the most complete record of dinosaurs before their rise to dominance in the Early Jurassic. Here, we describe a previously unidentified basal theropod, reassess its contemporary Eoraptor as a basal sauropodomorph, divide the faunal record of the Ischigualasto Formation with biozones, and bracket the formation with (40)Ar/(39)Ar ages. Some ...

study area is located in district of bajestan and ferdows cities, ne of iran. structurally, this area is part of lut block. the oldest exposed rocks, to the north of intrusive rocks and in eastern bajestan, are meta-chert, slate, quartzite, thin-bedded crystalline limestone and meta-argillite. the sedimentary units are: sardar formation (carboniferous), jamal formation (permian), sorkh shale an...

Carbon cycle disturbance associated with mass extinction at the end of the Permian Period continued through the Early Triassic, an interval of approximately 5 million years. Coincidence of carbon cycle stabilization with accelerated Middle Triassic biotic recovery suggests a link between carbon cycling and biodiversity, but the cause of Early Triassic carbon isotope excursions remains poorly un...
