...Fumio Kobayashi; Ken-Ichi Ishii Abstract Fusulinaceans consisting of 56 species assignable to 30 genera are distinguished in the Surmaq Formation in the Abadeh region, central Iran. Based on the stratigraphic distribution of fusulinaceans, the Surmaq Formation is divisible into six biostratigraphic...

...Hushang Taraz Abstract A continuous marine carbonate sequence (more than 2,650 m or 8,692 ft thick), commencing with the Artinskian transgression and ending with the regression of probably early Middle Triassic age, was discovered by the writer in 1967 in Central Iran near the town of Abadeh, lat...

...Hushang Taraz Abstract Paleontologic evidence suggests that the Pamirian beds of central Asia are of post-Guadalupian and pre-Dzhulfian age, and that they correlate closely with the Abadeh Formation. The time interval corresponding to this formation is the Abadehian Stage. Paleontologic evidence...

...Hushang Taraz Abstract An exceptionally thick and very fossiliferous Upper Permian-Lower Triassic marine transitional sequence has been discovered in the Abadeh region of Central Iran. The uppermost Permian of this section compares closely with the classic Julfa 3 section, the stratotype...

... a maximum of 4.3 ‰ PDB at the Wordian–Capitanian boundary at the Bagh-e Vang section. This δ 13 C rise is attributed to high primary productivity as previously reported in the Capitanian Abadeh Formation in central Iran. The positive δ 13 C excursion in these sections is correlated with the Capitanian...

... and basaltic rocks, which cap the ophiolite sequences. The present work provides a review on the rare-earth element ( REE ) geochemistry coupled with major- and trace-element geochemical characteristics of the Nasirabad and Abadeh Tashk manganese deposits (associated with the Neyriz ophiolite), and Sorkhvand...
