Tafoni Phenomena in the Kerman Province of Iran: Short Description and Pictures
Geo-Eco-Trop., 2014, 38, 2 : 289-304 Tafoni phenomena in the Kerman Province of Iran: Short description and pictures Brève description avec illustrations photographiques de phénomènes Tafoni dans la province de Kerman en Iran Iradj ESCHGHI (*) Résumé : La formation de tafoni dans la province de Kerman en Iran est présentée pour la première fois dans la note brève ci-après avec une galerie de photos illustrative. Les tafoni représentés se développent en plusieurs endroits dans différents matériaux rocheux: du basalte dans le désert de Lut, un champ volcanique du Plateau de Gandom Beryan, de l’andésite dans la grotte d’Ayub près de la ville de Dehaj, du tuf volcanique dans le village de Marj et du grès près de la ville de Hojedk. Mots-clés: Iran, Province de Kerman, Formation de Tafoni, Différents matériaux rocheux Abstract: Tafoni formation in the Kerman province of Iran is described for the first time in this paper illustrated by a pictures gallery. Tafoni develop in lots of areas in different rock types such as: basalt in the Lut desert, volcanic field of the Gandom Beryan Plateau , andesite in the Ayub cave near the town of Dehaj , tuff near the village of Marj and sandstone near the town of Hojedk Keywords: Iran, Kerman province, Tafoni formation, Various rock types INTRODUCTION Because of thermal changes, mineral decomposition, water and wind action, and salt weathering, natural cavities called Tafoni develop in various (granular) rock types. These cavities are of different forms: spherical, ellipsoidal, kidney-shaped, pan to bowl shaped… The origin of the word tafoni is uncertain; maybe it is derived from the Corsican dialect “tafone” and is synonymous with window (KLAER 1956). -
Biofacies, Taphofacies, and Depositional Environments in the North of Neotethys Seaway (Qom Formation, Miocene, Central Iran)
Biofacies, taphofacies, and depositional environments in the north of Neotethys Seaway (Qom Formation, Miocene, Central Iran) Mahdiyeh Mahyad, Amrollah Safari *, Hossein Vaziri-Moghaddam, Ali Seyrafian Department of Geology, Faculty of Sciences, University of Isfahan, Isfahan, 81746-73441, Iran *Corresponding author E-mails address: [email protected]; [email protected] Abstract: This research attempted to reconstruct the sedimentary environment and depositional sequences of the Qom Formation in Central Iran, using biofacies and taphofacies analyses. The Qom Formation in the Andabad area with 220 m of thickness is located at N 3°48’12.6” and E 47°59’28”. The thickness of the Qom Formation in the Nowbaran area (N 35°05’22.5” and E 49°41’00”) was found to be 458 m. In both areas, the formation mainly consists of shale and limestone. The lower boundary between the Qom and Lower Red formations is unconformable in both areas. In the Nowbaran area, the Qom Formation is covered by recent alluvial sediments. In the Andabad area, the Qom Formation was unconformably overlaid by the Upper Red Formation. A total of 122 limestone and 15 shale rock samples were collected from the Andabad area, and 94 limestone and 24 shale rock samples were collected from the Nowbaran area. Analysis of the collected samples resulted in the recognition of nine biofacies, one terrigenous facies, and five taphofacies within the Qom Formation in the both areas. Based on the vertical distributions of biofacies, the Qom Formation is deposited on an open shelf carbonate platform. This carbonate platform can be divided into three subenvironments: inner shelf (restricted and semi-restricted lagoon), middle shelf, and outer shelf. -

An Emerging Picture of the Neolithic of Northeast Iran
IranicaAntiqua, vol. LI, 2016 doi: 10.2143/IA.51.0.3117827 AN EMERGING PICTURE OF THE NEOLITHIC OF NORTHEAST IRAN BY Kourosh ROUSTAEI (Iranian Center for Archaeological Research) Abstract: For many years the Neolithic of the northeastern Iranian Plateau was acknowledged by materials and data recovered from the three sites of Yarim Tappeh, Turang Tappeh and Sang-e Chakhmaq, all excavated in the 1960-1970s. In the last two decades an increasing mass of information based on archaeologi- cal fieldworks and reappraisal of archival materials have been built up that is going to significantly enhance our understanding on the Neolithic period of the region. The overwhelming majority of the information is obtained from the Shahroud area and the Gorgan plain, on the south and north of the Eastern Alborz Mountains respectively. So far, sixty two Neolithic sites have been identified in the region. This paper briefly reviews the known Neolithic sites and outlines the various implications of the newly emerging picture of the period for the northeast region of Iran. Keywords: Neolithic, northeast region, Sang-e Chakhmaq, Shahroud, Gorgan plain, Jeitun Culture Introduction Since Robert Braidwood’s pioneering investigations in the Zagros Mountains in 1960s (1961), western Iran has been the interest area for scholars who searching the early evidence of domestications. The follow- ing decades witnessed a series of well-planned works (e.g. Hole et al. 1969) in the region that considerably contributed to our understanding on early stages of the village life. Renewal of the relevant investigations in the Zagros region in recent years points the significance of the region on the incipient agriculture in the Near East (e.g. -

Post-Collisional Plio-Pleistocene Adakitic Volcanism in Centeral Iranian Volcanic Belt:Geochemical and Geodynamic Implications
Journal of Sciences, Islamic Republic of Iran 19(3): 223-235 (2008) http://jsciences.ut.ac.ir University of Tehran, ISSN 1016-1104 Post-Collisional Plio-Pleistocene Adakitic Volcanism in Centeral Iranian Volcanic Belt:Geochemical and Geodynamic Implications G. Ghadami,1,* A.M. Shahre Babaki,1 and M. Mortazavi2 1Department of Geology, Faculty of Science, University of Shahid Bahonar, 76175-133 Kerman, Islamic Republic of Iran 2Department of Geology, Faculty of Science University of Hormozgan, 3995 Bandar Abass, Islamic Republic of Iran Abstract In the Central IranianVolcanic Belt (CIVB), north-west of Shahre-Babak, in the area of Javazm, Dehaj and khabr, about 60 subvolcanic porphyritic dacitic to rhyodacitic domes (1-10 km2) are intruded into a variety of rock sequences from Mesozoic to Early Miocene in age. These rocks are a part of Dehaj-Sardoieh belt. The CIVB contains intrusive and extrusive rocks of Cretaceous-Quaternary age. Geochemical data indicate that the subalkalic dacitic to rhyodacitic rocks have an adakitic composition with Na2o/K2o (1.8-3.16), high Sr (584-1750 ppm), Mg # = (0.18-0.57) and low Y (7-10 ppm), low Yb (0.65-1.29 ppm), and low HREE. Fractionated REE patterns, (Ce/Yb)N = 10-27, absence of negative Eu anomal, low content of Y, Nb, Ti, and high Sr/Y (74-265) and (Ce/Yb)N ratios suggest that the source was probably hydrous garnet-amphibolite or amphibole-eclogite, possibly generated during subduction of the Neo-Tethyan oceanic slab beneath the Central Iran microplate.The adakitic volcanism was followed by eruption of alkaline magmatism in this area. -
