Metamorphic rocks in SW Arak composed from two groups including regional and contact metamorphism. Regional metamorphic rocks are composed of slate, phyllite and micaschists and locted in green-schist facies and contact metamorphic rocks are composed of spotted schist and hornfels respectively. Mineralogically, these rocks are composed of quartz, chlorite, muscovite, biotite and cordierite. Pet...

The Lapeh-Zanak copper deposit is located about 15 km east of Tehran, in the southern part of the Central Alborz Zone. The rock units exposed in this area include a sequence of volcanic and pyroclastic rocks (basalt, andesite, trachy-andesite and dacitic and vitric tuff) belonging to the Fajan Formation with the Paleocene-Lower Eocene age, which are cut by subvolcanic igneous masses with a comp...

Deylaman area lies on Paleogene volcanic rocks in Western Alborz near the border between Central and Western Alborz structural zones. The succession of Paleogene rocks in the area is comprised of three separate phases each of which representing one stage of volcanic events. The main purpose of this paper is to study the lithologic sequence and geochemical characteristics of phase two volcanic r...

Hezar complex is a part of Dehaj-Sarduiyeh volcano-plotunic belt in southwest of Rayen (Kerman province). Investigations on lava flows show that they have basalt, basaltic-trachy-andesite, trachy-andesite ,and trachy-basalt composition. On the basis of petrographic studies, the rocks contain plagioclase (Oligoclase - Andesine), pyroxene (Augite - Diopside) and much altered olivine. Plagioclases...
