This paper reviews the spatial-temporal distribution, geological and geochemical features,
and geophysical context of diverse types of Cenozoic ore deposits formed during India …

The Zagros Mountains are the result of the Arabia/Eurasia collision initiated at~ 35Ma as the
rifted Arabian lithosphere was underthrusted beneath the Iranian plate due to its negative …

Abstract The Sanandaj‐Sirjan zone of Iran is a northwest trending orogenic belt immediately
north of the Zagros suture, which represents the former position of the Neotethys Ocean. The …

Arc volcanism across Iran is dominated by a Paleogene pulse, despite protracted and
presumably continuous subduction along the northern margin of the Neotethyan ocean for …

This study intends to showcase the application of Extreme Gradient boosting (XGboost), a
state-of-the-art ensemble-learning technique, for district-scale mineral potential map** …

Iran is a remarkable geoscientific laboratory where the full range of processes that form and
modify the continental crust can be studied. Iran's crustal nucleus formed as a magmatic arc …

A poorly understood lag time of 15–20 my exists between the initial Arabia-Eurasia
continental collision in late Eocene to early Oligocene time and the acceleration of tectonic …

Eurasia has largely grown to its present enormous size through episodic addition of crustal
blocks by recurring birth and demise of oceans such as Paleotethys and Neotethys …

The Tethyside orogen, a direct consequence of the separation of the Gondwanaland and the
accretion of Eurasia, is a huge composite orogenic system that was generated during …

The Lesser Caucasus occurs in the hinterland of the Arabia–Eurasia collision zone in the
broad Alpine–Himalayan orogenic belt and includes Cenozoic plutonic and volcanic …
