Role of supra-subduction zone ophiolites in the tectonic evolution of the southeastern Zagros Orogenic Belt, Iran
Ophiolitic rocks in the southeastern part of the Zagros Orogenic Belt can be separated from southwest to northeast, into two groups: the Neyriz ophiolites and the Naien–Shahrebabak–Baft ophiolites. The southeast sector of Sanandaj-Sirjan wasdelimited by the two nearly synchronous ophiolitic belts in its southwestern and northeastern margins. In this study, new ophiolitic formation models were u...
متن کاملDynamics of intraoceanic subduction initiation: 1. Oceanic detachment fault inversion and the formation of suprasubduction zone ophiolites
Subduction initiation is a critical link in the plate tectonic cycle. Intraoceanic subduction zones can form along transform faults and fracture zones, but how subduction nucleates parallel to mid-ocean ridges, as in e.g., the Neotethys Ocean during the Jurassic, remains a matter of debate. In recent years, extensional detachment faults have been widely documented adjacent to slow-spreading and...
متن کاملSubduction zone rheology
Rheological flow laws can be obtained from studies using multi-anvil high-pressure systems with synchrotron-based piezometers and strain metrics. The high flux X-ray source provides minute-scale time resolution with accurate measurement of diffraction patterns and direct sample images. Measurements of length changes with an accuracy of one part in 104 are being developed and will provide a new ...
متن کاملخاستگاه ماگما در پهنه ابرفرورانشی مجموعه افیولیتی پیرانشهر بر اساس شیمی کانی کلینوپیروکسن موجود در بازالت‌های شمال غرب ایران
The Piranshahr ophiolitic complex is located in NW Iran, and at north west of the Piranshahr town. Tectonically, the NW Piranshahr ophiolitic complex is severely mélanged and the boundary of different units in this complex is undistinguishable. Piranshahr ophiolite includes ultramafic, mafic, sedimentary and metamorphic rocks. Mafic rocks with basalt and diabase compositions are exposed in seve...
متن کاملPetrology of MantleWedge Lithosphere: New Data on Supra-Subduction Zone Peridotite Xenoliths from the Andesitic AvachaVolcano, Kamchatka
Peridotite xenoliths in arc volcanoes are very rare, usually small and remain poorly studied. Much of the earlier work focused on peridotites affected by re-crystallization, metasomatism and veining that took place shortly before the eruption of the host magmas; such lithologies may not be widespread in the mantle wedge.This study reports petrographic, major and trace element data for 17 large,...
