Late Cretaceous Neyriz ophiolite, as a part of the Outer Zagros Ophiolitic Belt, represents a remnant of the southern Neo-Tethyan oceanic lithosphere exposed along the Zagros suture zone in the south of Iran. Neyriz ophiolite is composed of dismembered lithological units including variably depleted mantle peridotites as well as intrusive and extrusive rocks preserving a geochemical evolution from...
The geodynamic evolution of the Zagros Mountains of Iran remains obscure. In particular, the time of formation of the Zagros ophiolites and the closure of the Neo-Tethys Ocean are highly controversial. Here we present new precise zircon U–Pb ages that show that the younger part (Sahneh–Kamyaran) of the Kermanshah ophiolite formed at 35.7±0.5Ma and the older part (Harsin) at 79.3±0.9Ma. Field relations...
