Triassic evolution of the Adriatic-Dinaridic platform’s continental margins—insights from rare dolerite subvolcanic intrusions in External Dinarides, Croatia by Slovenec, Damir, Belak, Mirko, Badurina, Luka, Horvat, Marija, Šegvić, Branimir

“…Accordingly, two geodynamic interpretations are suggested: (i) Middle Triassic north-vergent active subduction of the Paleotethys beneath the Andean-type active Laurasian continental margin coupled by the formation of a pericontinental volcanic arc and subsequent extension and back-arc rifting, within the Adria Plate, which led to the formation of locally aborted rift systems and subsidence of the platform, and (ii) Middle Triassic extension, unaffected by contemporaneous active subduction, of the High Karst nappe unit of the Greater Adria as a result of an ephemeral syn-rift volcanic stage, which featured the formation of the Dinaridic aborted rift system followed by the platform subsidence and emergence of local sedimentary basins.…”

Petrogenetic evidences in geodynamics and placement of Nordoz intrusive masses in Alborz-Azerbaijan structural zone by Shahryar Mahmoudi, Shiva Lavi, Shohreh Hassanpour, Amir Ali Tabakh Shabani, Mehran Yegane Far

“…The basaltic samples of the region are included in the range of volcanic arc basalts. Conclusion and discussion The results of the field observations indicate the presence of fractionated mafic magma injected into acidic magma (Fig. 2). …”

Whole-rock geochemistry and crystal chemistry of apatite at intrusive suites of the Qeynarjeh-Angouran district (west of Zanjan): an approach to the identification of skarn-causati... by Afsoon Dastour, Ebrahim Tale Fazel, Ashraf Torkian

“…The intrusive suites of the studied area, have the characteristic signatures of subduction zone magmas in a volcanic arc setting. Qeynarjeh granodiorite is ore-bearing, Kuh-e Belghais granite porphyry is non-productive, and Gharavol-Khane quartz diorites are barren to ore-bearing nature and they are all in the range of mineralized differentiated intrusive in-depth. …”
