The Hamadan area is characterised by various metamorphic rocks where the slates yielded Jurassic fossils. The entire column, representing the Mesozoic from at least the Jurassic to the Mid-Cretaceous, has been affected by tectono-metamorphic events and the emplacement of Late Cretaceous granitic rocks. A timing of these events is based on the ⁴⁰K–⁴⁰Ar ages carried mainly on separated amphiboles, biotites and muscovites, and interpreted as the ages of their isotopic closure. Results are ranging between 91 and 70 Ma. To cite this article: A. Baharifar et al., C. R. Geoscience 336 (2004).

Résumé

La région de Hamadan expose des roches métamorphiques dont les termes les moins transformés contiennent des fossiles jurassiques. Au cours du Crétacé supérieur, elle a été affectée par un événement tectono-métamorphique régional et elle a été le siège d'une activité plutonique. Les résultats des datations ⁴⁰K–⁴⁰Ar des amphiboles et des micas séparés des roches métamorphiques et plutoniques qui s'étagent entre 91 et 70 Ma montrent l'importance de ces événements et leur étalement au cours du Crétacé supérieur.

利用野外露头、钻井和地震资料．通过岩相、沉积旋回以及地震层序和地震相分析建立中伊朗盆地库姆组的层序地层系统、框架模式及沉积体系，岩性地层单元与沉积层序的对应关系。研究发现库姆组沉积于一个受全球海平面升降变化及区域构造活动影响而与波斯湾间歇性相通的弧后大陆边缘海盆地，是一顶底面以不整合界面为界的构造层序(超层序组)，其内部发育3个3级层序。依据库姆组沉积时的盆地形态和沉积环境分析将盆地分为岛弧、台地、斜坡、盆地4个次级构造一沉积单元。盆地南缘为障壁岛，由于陆源碎屑少，南带及中带沉积碳酸盐岩为主；而北东缘为陆地，陆源(火山)碎屑供应充分，发育扇、河控三角洲沉积体系；东南岛弧带则沉积碳酸盐岩夹火山碎屑岩为主。  相似文献   

Structures and microstructures related to steady-state mantle flow in the Neyriz ophiolite, Iran     

Khalil Sarkarinejad   《Journal of Asian Earth Sciences》2005,25(6):859-881

Structural analysis in the well-exposed and well-preserved Neyriz ophiolite suggests that it is a relatively undisturbed piece of oceanic lithosphere. Detailed structural mapping of high-T deformation mantle flow revealed the presence of three elliptical shaped diapirs trending NW–SE. These diapirs are characterized by vertical mantle foliations associated with vertical plunging stretching lineations, which progressively incline toward parallelism with the gently NE-dipping Moho. The NW–SE direction of asthenospheric upwelling of diapirs is parallel with the orientations of the vertical sheeted dike complex. This suggests that the Neyriz ophiolite was created by two NW–SE palaeo-ridge axes. These palaeo-ridges are classified as fast-spreading ridges. These ridges are segmented by a dextral palaeo-transform fracture zone. This is consistent with fast-spreading ridges. Comparison between the Neyriz and Oman ophiolites reveals that they show similar characteristics. Most of the Oman palaeo-ridge systems are oriented NW–SE and NNW–SE. They also display similar sheeted dike complex orientations and crustal thickness variations. These two ophiolites originally were part of the Neo-Tethyan oceanic lithosphere and afterwards were separated by the Oman line during continental collision of the Iranian micro-continent and Afro-Arabian continent.  相似文献   

Major ion chemistry of groundwaters in the Bahar area, Hamadan, western Iran   总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2  

Mohsen Jalali 《Environmental Geology》2005,47(6):763-772

Hydrochemical investigations were carried out in Bahar area, Hamadan, western Iran, to assess the chemical composition of groundwater. The area falls in a semi-arid type of climate. In this area, groundwater has been exploited over the past century mainly for irrigation and water supply. A total of 135 representative groundwater samples were collected from different wells to monitor the water chemistry of various ions. Chemical analysis of the groundwater shows that the mean concentration of the cations is of the order Ca²⁺>Mg ²⁺>Na⁺>K⁺, while that for anions is SO₄^2–>HCO₃^–>Cl^–>NO₃^–. Statistical analyses indicate positive correlation between the following pairs of parameters Cl^– and Mg ²⁺ (r=0.71), Cl^– and Na⁺ (r=0.76), HCO₃^– and Na⁺ (r=0.56), SO₄^2– and Mg²⁺ (r=0.76), SO₄^2– and Na⁺ (r=0.69). Water presents a large spatial variability of the chemical facies (Ca-HCO₃, Ca-SO₄, Mg-HCO₃, Mg-SO₄, Na-HCO₃) which is in relation to their interaction with the geological formations of the basin (carbonates, dolomite and various silicates) and evaporation. The hydrochemical types Ca-HCO₃ and Ca-SO₄ dominate the largest part of the studied area. The dissolution of halite, calcite, dolomite, and gypsum explains part of the contained Na ⁺, Ca²⁺, Mg²⁺, Cl^–, SO₄^2– and HCO₃^–, but other processes, such as cation exchange and weathering of aluminosilicates also contribute to the water composition.  相似文献

Heavy metal concentrations in water and surface sediments of Maharlou Lake, SE of Shiraz, Iran     

Farid Moore Guiti Forghani Tehrani Afshin Qishlaqi Fatemeh Rastmanesh 《中国地球化学学报》2006,25(B08):168-168

The main objective of this study is to evaluate trace metal distribution and identify their sources in the Maharlou Lake. Trace metals （Cr, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Cd, Pb） and major elements （A1, Ca, Fe, K, Mg, Mn, Na, P） were investigated in water and surface sediments. There was a negative relationship between the depth of water and heavy metal concentration. Metal concentrations in water and sediment samples show a high variability and decrease in this order： Al〉Fe〉Ni〉Co〉Pb〉Zn〉Cu〉Mn〉Cd. In the northern parts of the lake, especially at the inflow of drains and the Khoshk River of Shiraz City, metal concentrations are higher in both water and sediment samples. In order to assess the heavy metal enrichment in sediment samples, trace metal concentrations were normalized for Al. Except for Mn, all metals are enriched relative to average crust and average sedimentary rocks. Also, the results showed that stations located at the northern coast of the lake, have higher enrichment factors （EF） than the other stations. The results of this study showed that the Khoshk River and other drains are the main pollutant sources of the Maharluo Lake.  相似文献   

Late Permian to Late Triassic palaeomagnetic data from Iran: constraints on the migration of the Iranian block through the Tethyan Ocean and initial destruction of Pangaea   总被引：6，自引：0，他引：6

A palaeomagnetic study of Late Permian to early Jurassic rocks from the Alborz and Sanandaj–Sirjan zones in Iran and a compilation of selected palaeopoles from the Carboniferous to the present provide an updated history of the motion of the Iranian block within the Tethys Ocean. The Iran assemblage, part of Gondwana during the Palaeozoic, rifted away by the end of the Permian. We ascertain the southern-hemisphere palaeoposition of Iran at that time using magnetostratigraphy and show that it was situated close to Arabia, near to its relative position today. A northward transit of this block during the Triassic is shown, with an estimated expansion rate of the Neotethyan ridge of 100–140  km Myr⁻¹. The northward convergence with respect to Eurasia ended during the Ladinian (Middle Triassic), and is marked by a collision in the northern hemisphere with the Turan platform, which was the southern margin of the Eurasian continent at that time. No north–south component of shortening is evidenced north of Iran afterwards. An analysis of the declinations from the Late Permian to the present shows different, large rotations, emphasizing the important tectonic phases suffered since the Triassic. Finally, we propose palaeomagnetic reconstructions of the Tethys area during the Late Permian and the Late Triassic, showing that the Palaeotethys Ocean was narrower than previously thought, and did not widen its gate to the Panthalassa before the Triassic period.  相似文献   

GPS network monitors the Arabia-Eurasia collision deformation in Iran   总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2

The rate of crustal deformation in Iran due to the Arabia–Eurasia collision is estimated. The results are based on new global positioning system (GPS) data. In order to address the problem of the distribution of the deformation in Iran, Iranian and French research organizations have carried out the first large-scale GPS survey of Iran. A GPS network of 28 sites (25 in Iran, two in Oman and one in Uzbekistan) has been installed and surveyed twice, in September 1999 and October 2001. Each site has been surveyed for a minimum observation of 4 days. GPS data processing has been done using the GAMIT-GLOBK software package. The solution displays horizontal repeatabilities of about 1.2 mm in 1999 and 2001. The resulting velocities allow us to constrain the kinematics of the Iranian tectonic blocks. These velocities are given in ITRF2000 and also relative to Eurasia. This last kinematic model demonstrates that (1) the north–south shortening from Arabia to Eurasia is 2–2.5 cm/year, less than previously estimated, and (2) the transition from subduction (Makran) to collision (Zagros) is very sharp and governs the different styles of deformation observed in Iran. In the eastern part of Iran, most of the shortening is accommodated in the Gulf of Oman, while in the western part the shortening is more distributed from south to north. The large faults surrounding the Lut block accommodate most of the subduction–collision transition.  相似文献
