description | The Harris granitoid body, as a part of Alborz-Azarbaijan zone, located in the northwestern Iran and west of Shabestar city. The intrusive body cut the Kahar formation and covered by non-conformably Permian sediments. This body is granite- alkali granite in composition with peraluminous to metaluminous nature. Granular and perthite are dominant textures of the studied samples. The rocks under investigated are marked by quartz, K-feldspar, plagioclase as well as biotite, amphibole, pyroxene, apatite, titanite and zircon as minor minerals. The strong Eu negative in the REE diagram points to either the presence of plagioclase in the source or differentiation process of the plagioclase during evolution of the parent magma. As the petrochemical data display, the studied rocks are A-type granitoids, and due to Nb poor, they are compatible with A2- type. In addition, Ba negative anomaly and Rb, Th enrichment relative to Ta and Nb represent the crustal origin of Harris intrusive body. In these granites, Ba shows more negative anomalies than post collision granites and the Zr, Ta, Nb and Yb amounts are somewhat higher than those of post collision granites. The Harris granite body can be regarded as intraplate and non-orogenic granites generated in a post collision tensile environment. Overall, the Harris granitoid possibly originated by partial melting of lower crust with tonalite-granodiorite composition. |
