Integration of data from field. geochemistry, and radiometric age invcstigations of the active Banda arc-Australia collision zonc (Banda orogen) and· the Jurassic Brooks Range ophiolite provide ncw constraints for the origin and emplacement of Oman-type ophiolites. These ophiolites arc characterized by ultramafic residuals and mafic products that arc chemically modified by "anous dcgrees of pan...

Analysis of spatial, temporal, geological and geochemical patterns of ophiolites in the Indonesian and New Guinea region indicates a strong correlation with marginal basin development and closure. The spatial distribution of ophiolites is mostly linked with marginal basin producing zones of oblique convergence and collision. Strain partitioning in these zones creates a series of ephemeral plate...

The Khoy Ophiolitic Complex (KOC) as a part of Tethyan, Izmir-Ankara- Erzincan and Bitlis-Zagros sutures of South East (SE) Turkey is broadly exposed around Khoy region (NW Iran). This complex comprises dismembered fragments of mantle lithosphere, obducted oceanic lithosphere and parts of volcanic arc remnants. The Khoy Ophiolitic Complex can be structurally divided into two major eastern and w...

Sheeted dike complexes, in which dike intrudes dike without intermediate screens of gabbro or pillow lava, have long been considered key features of oceanic lithosphere and ophiolites formed in extensional environments. The presence of a sheeted complex implies an approximate balance between spreading rate and magma supply, such that there is just enough melt to fill newly formed fractures prod...

Mafic–ultramafics complexes are crucial for their tectonic implication, upper mantle condition, and hosting industrial minerals in a region. This study aims to highlight characterize the mafic–ultramafic rocks of Logar Ophiolite Complex using integration geospatial technology field data. The spatial distribution ophiolitic complex was examined this mineralogical indices (MI), band ratio (BR), s...

The Kermanshah ophiolite complex is a part of the Mediterranean–Zagros–Oman Tethyan ophiolites, located in the structural–tectonic zone of western Iran in the northern part of the Zagros main thrust. Doleritic sheeted dykes are well exposed within the ophiolite in the south of Sahneh. These dykes contain high MgO, Na2O, low TiO2 (2O5, and K2O contents, and high FeOt/MgO and LILE/HFSE ratios. Th...
