Drought is one of the most complex natural hazards that affect natural systems and different parts of an ecosystem in various ways. Evaluation of drought behavior such as determining the time of its occurrence, understanding the relationships between types of drought, and recognizing its characteristics such as magnitude, severity, and duration of drought periods can be an important aid in wate...

The Sebandoon Barite (gold-silver) deposit is located about 20 km NW of the Kashmar in the Central Iran. The rock units exposed in the area consist of Eocene volcano-sedimentary sequences of lithic tuff, rhyolitic tuff, tuffaceouce shale, lapilli tuff and agglomerate associated with pyroxene andesite and trachyandesite. The barite is composed of lenticular, banded and stockwork mineralization a...
