Post-collisional ultrapotassic volcanic rocks and ultramafic xenoliths in the Eslamieh Peninsula, NW Iran: petrological and geochemical constraints on mantle source and metasomatism

The Eslamieh Peninsula in NW Iran exposes Miocene potassic to ultrapotassic volcanic rocks that are often associated with a variety of ultramafic xenoliths. Based on geochemical features, the rocks investigated in this study can be subdivided into two main groups: 1) MgO-rich (8.0–13.9 wt%) basic (S...
