Ophiolitic podiform chromitites from Phanerozoic orogens have been shown to preserve a
wealth of textures and inclusions that, in some way, trace earlier episodes of subduction and …

Tectonically emplaced mantle rocks, such as ophiolites, abyssal peridotites, and orogenic
peridotite massifs, provide a principle constraint on the composition of and processes in the …

Red coloured Middle Eocene Gercus Formation is a widely exposed rock unit in northern
Iraq, southeastern Turkey, and northwestern Iran. Siliciclastic rocks (mudstones and …

This study concerns the absolute LA ICP-MS U-Pb dating of hydrothermal cementation,
particularly in tectonically controlled fractures filling saddle dolomites and blocky calcites in …

The Upper Cretaceous carbonates along the Zagros thrust-fold belt “Harir-Safin anticlines”
experienced extensive hot brine fluids that produced several phases of hydrothermal …

Podiform chromitite is an important archive recording detailed information on mantle
magmatism, heterogeneity and dynamics. High-Al chromitites are believed to have formed in …

Hydrothermal diagenesis during the Zagros Orogeny produced three phases of saddle
dolomites (SD1, SD2, and SD3) and two phases of blocky calcites (CI and CII) in the studied …

Chromitite occurrences in ophiolites are commonly classified into high-Cr (Cr#> 60) and
high-Al (Cr#< 60) varieties. High-Cr chromitites have been extensively studied, whereas the …

The Sabzevar ophiolite belt consists of a series of thrust-bound massifs that widen in extent
to∼ 150 km in NE Iran. The Kuh-Siah harzburgite-dunite massif in the central sector of this …

An electron microprobe study has been carried out on platinum-group minerals, accessory
phases, and chromite in several chromite deposits of the Alapaevsk ophiolite (Central Urals …
