Structural controls mineralization in strike-slip fault terminals, case study: Kaybarkuh region in East of Iran

Abstract In this study, we have investigated the status of faults in terms of precession and subsequence, and their relationship with vein mineralization in Kaybarkuh intrusive body in East of Iran. At least, three generations of faults are evidenced in Dasht-e-Bayaz (DB) fault terminal. During formation of faults, the stress orientation in the region has changed at least once probably due to DB fault [...] Read more.
In this study, we have investigated the status of faults in terms of precession and subsequence, and their relationship with vein mineralization in Kaybarkuh intrusive body in East of Iran. At least, three generations of faults are evidenced in Dasht-e-Bayaz (DB) fault terminal. During formation of faults, the stress orientation in the region has changed at least once probably due to DB fault evolution. Mineralization, especially gold and copper, is formed along the third-generation faults and sometimes on the fault surfaces. It can be predicted that mineralization also happened in the tensioned area of Kal-Shur covered by salt playa and Quaternary sediments, which requires subsurface and geophysics studies.
