Abstract. Recognition of a new angular unconformity and the synthesis detrital zircon U–Pb (U–Th) / He provenance records, including double dating, from NW Zagros region elucidate basin dynamics foreland wedge-top intermontane units, as well tectonic processes in source terranes response to different geodynamic phases. In this contribution, we present field observations data hinterland basins r...

Abstract Naturally, fractured reservoirs play a considerable part in the study, production, and development of hydrocarbon fields because most Zagros Basin are naturally fractured. Production from those is usually affected by presence system connected fractures. In this Tabnak field on fold–thrust belt at zone Persian plate has been analyzed facies models, folding mechanism analysis to identify...

The most enigmatic problems with the nearly 200 salt domes pierced in the Persian Gulf and in the Zagros Mountain Ranges (ZMR) in southern Iran, a unique morphology in the world, have been the matter of this study, which is based on a combination of field work, enhancement of satellite and aerial photographs etc. In the ZMR, structural anomalies are frequently associated with similar facies dis...

The NNW-trending Dena Fault, with 140 km length, cuts the major structures of Zagros Fold-Thrust Belt in Borujen region. The fault has divided the region in two zones, in which different structural, andmorphological features as well assedimentation and seismtectonic characteristics have developed. This study presents a new interpretation for the kinematics of Dena Fault based on field evidence....

the iranian plateau is characterized by diverse tectonic domains, including the continental collisions (e.g. the zagros and alborz mountains) and oceanic plate subduction (e.g. makransubduction zone). to derive a detailed image of the crust–mantle (moho) and lithosphere–asthenosphere (lab) boundaries in some tectonically units of the iranian plateau, we used a large number of s receiver functio...

The oblique collision between the northeastern margin of Arabian platform and Iranian microcontinent has led to transpressional deformation in Zagros orogenic belt central part Alpine–Himalayan belt. Although previous articles have emphasized dextral sense shear belt, this paper, using several indicators kinematic upon field checking microscopic thin-section studies, evidence development a sini...
