Controls on Cu mineralization in central part of the Kerman porphyry copper belt, SE Iran:constraints from structural and spatial pattern analysis

Morphometric dataset of the alluvial fans at the southern part of Nayband fault, Iran

“…Iran is considered to be tectonically active regarding its geological situation and features [14] , [15] , [16] , [17] , [18] , [19] and this paper has tried to present data valuable for examining the morphotectonic imprints which are discernible in the morphology of the fans in the southern part of Nayband fault, a right lateral strike slip fault in Central Iran, that forms the western border of Lut desert. Due to the close distance of these landforms to one of the area wherein five of the seven years was detected as the hottest spot on the Earth, having a surface temperature above 70 °C [20] , access to them is not easy and the present data is also valuable at this point of view.…”

Strain rate and stress fields in the West and South Lut block, Iran: Insights from the inversion of focal mechanism and geodetic data

“…Along the Gowk and Nayband faults, deformations are related to the different slip rates of the NS faults (Nayband and Gowk faults) and to the different slip rates in the EW direction (Gowk and Nayband faults with Anar fault). Therefore, the west boundary of the Lut block, and also southward to the southeast of Urumieh-Dokhtar Cenozoic magmatic zone by these shear systems, has experienced intense and young deformation in different parts of this area (Amirihanza et al, 2018;Mirzaie et al, 2015). As such, different slip rates have caused a different level of seismicity in different parts of the area.…”

Slip partitioning and inclined transpression in the Bazargan fold and thrust belt, Central Iran Microcontinent, Kerman area, SE Iran

“…In Iran, transpression deformation zones have been identified in different parts of the Zagros simply folded belt (Navabpour et al, 2007), high Zagros (Agard et al, 2011;, Sanandaj-Sirjan zone and Urumieh-Dokhtar Magmatic Belt (Amirihanza et al, 2018;Mirzaie et al, 2015;Mohajjel and Fergusson 2014;Mohajjel et al, 2003;Mohajjel and Fergusson 2000;Sarkarinejad 2007;Sarkarinejad and Azizi 2008;Shafiei Bafti and Mohajjel 2015;Sarkarinejad et al, 2015;Keshavarz and Faghih, 2020), Alborz (Nabavi et al, 2017), Binalud (Sheikholeslami et al, 2019). In the east of central Iran N-S to NE-SW dextral transpression have been recognized along the boundary between the Lut and Tabas blocks (Cifelli et al, 2013).…”
