The Geology of Iran: Tectonic, Magmatism and Metamorphism

Viac o knihe

The geological history of Iran is explored through its paleogeography and geodynamics, detailing structural units, faults, and tectonic phases. The book examines the extensive magmatic and metamorphic rocks, including Precambrian basement formations, which illuminate geodynamic issues and the evolution of sedimentary basins. It also highlights the relationship between these rocks and mineral deposits. Detailed discussions on igneous rocks cover their petrography, geochemistry, and geodynamics, along with comprehensive tables of major intrusive bodies and their specifications.
