Roundness of heavy minerals (zircon and apatite) as a provenance tool for unraveling recycling: A case study from the Sefidrud and Sarbaz rivers in N and SE Iran

Y Zoleikhaei, D Frei, A Morton, SM Zamanzadeh - Sedimentary Geology, 2016 - Elsevier
In order to improve techniques for provenance studies, and especially to address the
question of sediment recycling, morphological changes of two minerals with contrasting
durability (zircon and apatite) were tracked during both fluvial transport and littoral
reworking. The Sefidrud river system in northern Iran, which drains the Alborz volcano-
sedimentary range into the Caspian Sea, and the Sarbaz river system in southeastern Iran,
which drains the Makran Accretionary Prism into the Oman Sea, were chosen for this study …
