Cenozoic porphyry and other hydrothermal ore deposits along the South Caucasus-West Iranian tectono-magmatic belt: a critical reappraisal of the controlling factors
In this contribution, we investigate the space and time distribution of the Cenozoic
magmatism and the associated porphyry Cu-Mo±Au and other hydrothermal (mostly …

Jurassic igneous rocks of the central Sanandaj–Sirjan zone (Iran) mark a propagating continental rift, not a magmatic arc
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 …

Evolution of the Zagros sector of Neo-Tethys: Tectonic and magmatic events that shaped its rifting, seafloor spreading and subduction history
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 …

New evidence for Jurassic continental rifting in the northern Sanandaj Sirjan Zone, western Iran: the Ghalaylan seamount, southwest Ghorveh
We address the growing controversy about the tectonic setting in which Jurassic magmatism
of Iran occurred: arc or continental rift. In the Ghorveh area of the northern Sanandaj Sirjan …

The Eastern Khoy metamorphic complex of NW Iran: a Jurassic ophiolite or continuation of the Sanandaj–Sirjan Zone?
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 …
