The study area is located at northeast of Neyshabour in the Khorasan Razavi Province, northwest Arghash Gold Mine. The rocks of area are composed of polutonic to subvolcanic units with acid- intermediate in composition. They consist of granodiorite, diorite and granite. Alteration zones are: propylitic, sericitic, silicified and argillic. In the study area, mineralization is divided into two ty...

The Argash antimony ore deposit is located at south of Neyshabour and the eastern part of the Sabzevar zone. This deposit occurs within a sequence of Eocene-Oligocene volcanic-intrusion rocks. The mineralization occurs as open space filling, taking place as irregular veins, veinlets and hydrothermal breccias. The mineralogy of the veins is comparatively simple.

Given the discontinuity of energy produced by renewable sources a proven practice of combining these renewable energies can be a good solution for generating electricity in different atmospheric conditions, and with an appropriate combination of these sou...

For decreasing the effects of Genotype ×Environment (GE) interaction and having more precise selection, the yield and yield stability of selected lines should be evaluated simultaneously. YSi statistic is one of the applied methods for simultaneous selection of yield and yield stability. The objective of this study was to compare result of YSi statistic with other statistics approach such as S2...
