The Nurali massif is a small ophiolite located along the Main Uralian Fault in the Southern Urals. It includes a mantle sequence, a transition zone and a melange zone, with an intrusive, gabbro to oxide-diorite, unit interposed between the transition zone and the melange. Various igneous rocks occur as exotic blocks within the Nurali melange, including tholeiitic (gabbro to diorite) and calc-alkaline (diorite, tonalite, granodiorite and granite) intrusives, tholeiitic basalt and calc-alkaline basaltic andesite to dacite. The Poljakovka Complex basalts of Silurian age are similar to the tholeiitic effusives and are also intruded by gabbros similar to those in the melange zone calc-alkaline intrusives. The rocks of tholeiitic affinity in the tectonic melange are the remnants of an oceanic stage. Both intrusive and effusive calc-alkaline products can likely represent a subduction-related magmatism developed in an arc environment (intra-oceanic arc or continental margin). They are analogous to those from the Kraka massif which occur west of the Main Uralian Fault.
