Geochronology and petrogenesis of granitoids and associated mafic enclaves from Ghohroud in the Urumieh–Dokhtar Magmatic Arc (Iran): Evidence for magma mixing during the closure of the Neotethyan Ocean
Abstract:The Ghohroud granitoids (GG), containing mafic microgranular enclaves (MMEs) are located in the central part of the Urumieh‐Dokhtar Magmatic Arc (UDMA) in central Iran. They are associated with the subduction‐related magmatism in the Alpine‐Himalayan orogenic belt. The GG are comprised of a variety of intermediate and felsic rocks, including tonalite, granodiorite, granite, diorite porphyry and monzodiorite. The MMEs are gabbroic diorite and tonalite in composition and characterized by a fine‐grained hypidiomo… Show more
