The Sistan Suture Zone, eastern Iran, includes blocks and lenses of eclogite-, blueschist- and/or epidote amphibolite-facies rocks that provide an excellent opportunity to examine the exhumation history of oceanic HP/LT rocks and their retrograde derivatives. Zr-in-rutile thermometry of eclogites corroborates previous interpretations suggesting metamorphic temperatures of ca. 550–600°C during the...

The SSZ formed as a result of eastward-directed subduction of a Neotethyan ocean basin beneath the Afghan block and includes a tectonic mélange consisting of disrupted meta-ophiolitic rocks within a low-grade matrix of ultramafic, mafic and pelitic schists...
