Abstract Background: Infection with Hepatitis B virus (HBV) is still a leading cause of cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma around the world. Objectives: Having recently received reports of high HBV prevalence in the South Khorasan Province in the Esfandiar village, we aimed to evaluate the prevalence of HBV in this region in comparison to neighboring villages, with associations to risk factors. Methods: This was a cross sectional study that included the Esfandiar village and neighboring villages, Marghoub, and Zenowghan. All of the Esfandiar and certain neighboring villages were summoned and blood sampling was performed along with the comple- tion of a questionnaire. Positivity for HBsAg, anti-HBc along with the seromarkers of HCV and HDV were assayed using ELISA method. Statistical analysis was performed using the SPSS software with chi-square tests, logistic regression, and risk-estimation analysis.

  • The Study of Chert Nodules in the Sardar Formation, Ozbak-Kuh Mountains (North Tabas)
    The 1 st International Applied Geological Congress, Department of Geology, Islamic Azad University - Mashad Branch, Iran, 26-28 April 2010 The study of chert nodules in the Sardar Formation, Ozbak-Kuh Mountains (North Tabas) *Khanehbad, M., Moussavi-Harami, R., Mahboubi, A., Nadjafi, M., and Mahmoudi-Gharaee, M.H. Department of Geology, Faculty of Sciences, Ferdowsi University of Mashhad, Mashhad, Iran E-mail address: [email protected] Abstract The aim of this study is to analyze chert nodules in the Carboniferous sediments (Sardar Formation) in South of Ozbak-Kuh (North Tabas). In this area, cherts occur as irregular nodules in the bioclastic wackestone and packstone. These chert nodules are ovoid and bowl-shaped with clear lateral contacts. The color of nodular cherts is dark gray and black due to impurities such as organic matters and relic of carbonates. These cherts commonly contain relic component of other carbonate grains such as dolomite. The host rocks of all chert nodules in this study are biomicrite (skeletal wackestone and packstone). Dolomite rhombohedra are present within chert nodules but there is no evidences that the nodular cherts formed by the replacement of a dolomite precursor. Ghost of skeletal grains, such as crinoids, are preserved in the chert nodules and show diagenetic origin. Chert nodules have various forms but their longer dimension is parallel to bedding strikes. Based of petrographic studies, four fabric types are distinguished in silica including microcrystalline quartz, megaquartz (mosaic quartz), chalcedony overlay and spherulitic chalcedony. Key words: Chert nodules, Carboniferous, Ozbak-Kuh, Sardar Formation Introduction Chert is a hard, dense or compact siliceous rock, consisting of micro or cryptocrystalline quartz crystals that contain impurities such as carbonate, iron oxides and organic matters.

  • The Mineral Industry of Iran in 2014
    2014 Minerals Yearbook IRAN [ADVANCE RELEASE] U.S. Department of the Interior November 2017 U.S. Geological Survey THE MINERAL INDUSTRY OF IRAN By Sinan Hastorun Iran was a leading mineral commodity producer in the Middle for the development of nuclear weapons, continued to East and North Africa (MENA) region whose territory lies along negatively affect Iran’s economic and political relations with the Tethyan Eurasian Metallogenic Belt that runs from Western the Governments of the United States and the European Union Asia to the Balkans. The geology of Iran consists of a complex (EU). Although international sanctions previously imposed on tectonic framework within the broader Alpine-Himalayan Iran were partially suspended in January 2014 for an interim Orogenic Belt. Metallic mineral resources occur predominantly period, they continued to limit investment into and exports within igneous and metamorphic rocks along the Urumieh- of Iran’s mineral commodity products, including aluminum, Dokhtar Magmatic Belt that trends northwest-southeast coal, gold and other precious metals, graphite, petroleum and between the Central Iranian and Sanandaj-Sirjan Terranes in refined petroleum products, and steel (table 1; U.S. Government the Provinces of Esfahan, Hamadan, Kerman, Markazi, Yazd, Accountability Office, 2013, p. 3–4; European Union, 2014; and Zanjan.
