The evolution of the Neo-Tethys realm had a significant impact on the Phanerozoic paleogeography of the Iran Plateau. However, there remains significant debate regarding …
Jurassic igneous bodies of the Sanandaj–Sirjan zone (SaSZ) in SW Iran are generally considered as a magmatic arc but critical evaluation of modern geochronology …
Most arcs show systematic temporal and spatial variations in magmatism with clear shifts in igneous rock compositions between those of the magmatic front (MF) and those in the …
The Cretaceous rift magmatic activity along the southern margin of Eurasia is ideal for testing how the far-field magmatism, with alkaline to calc-alkaline igneous rocks along the …
NW Iran, situated between the Arabian and Eurasian plates, carries a record of both Paleo- Tethyan and Neo-Tethyan tectonic evolution. During the Wilson Cycle of Tethys Ocean …
Abstract Broadly similar Early to Middle Jurassic stratigraphic sequences including bimodal igneous rocks of the Sanandaj–Sirjan Zone of Iran and the Sakarya Zone of Turkey suggest …

In northwestern Iran, magmatic activity occurred during three main intervals: The Cretaceous, Eocene, and Miocene-Quaternary. The first two phases of magmatic activity are …
The Khoy complex in NW Iran has been widely regarded to consist of both Jurassic and Cretaceous ophiolites, but whereas the western Late Cretaceous ophiolite is unequivocal …
New trace-element, radiogenic Sr-Nd-Pb isotopic and geochronological data from Middle- Late Cretaceous Zagros ophiolites of Iran give new insights into the tectono-magmatic …
