SOGHAN COMPLEX AS AN EVIDENCE FOR PALEOSPREADING CENTER AND MANTLE DIAPIRISM IN SANANDAJ-SIRJAN ZONE (SOUTH-EAST IRAN)

Petrological Evolution of the Upper Mantle Beneath the Southern Sanandaj-Sirjan Zone: Evidence from Kuhshah Peridotite Massif, Southeast Iran

The Kuhshah ultramafic complex is located in the south-east of Sanandaj-Sirjan metamorphic zone, near the probable remnants of Neotethys plate in Iran. It consists of highly depleted harzburgites, dunites, chromitite bands and altered gabbros. The ultramafic parts have been intruded by numerous clinopyroxenite dykes and veins. In the harzburgites, there are different generations of olivine, ort...

Metamorphic evolution of high-pressure Quartz Schists in the Chadegan metamorphic complex, Sanandaj-Sirjan zone, Iran

The Chadegan metamorphic complex is a WNW-ESE- trending antiformal structure located in Sanandaj-Sirjan structural zone, Iran.The inner core of the structure is made of orthogneiss, containing eclogitic lenses. Schists and marbles lie structurally above theorthogneiss and crop out in the external limbs of the antiformal dome. Two main deformational episodes have been documented in theschists an...

metamorphic evolution of high-pressure quartz schists in the zhan metamorphic complex, sanandaj-sirjan zone, iran

the study area is located at the sanandaj-sirjan zone in the west and north-west of azna and north-east of doroud, iran. the quartz-schists are divided into two main groups: amphibole-quartz schist and garnet-quartz schist. field and microstructural studies show several deformational phases. the d1 episode which is represented by s1, matches with m1 metamprphism and d2 deformation matches with ...
