Cenozoic plutonic rocks in northeast Saveh, part of the central Urumieh–Dokh tar Magmatic Arc (UDMA) in Iran, comprise monzonite, monzodiorite, gabbro, and gab brodiorite. Geochemical, zircon U-Pb geochronology, and Hf isotopic data reveal that these plutonic rocks belong to a medium-K calc-alkaline, metaluminous series with arc related signatures. Zircon U-Pb ages (ca. 60 to 3 Ma) indicate prolonged magmatic evolu tion from the Middle Paleocene to the Middle Pliocene. Contrary to earlier reports of a 15 Ma period of reduced magmatic activity (ca. 72–57 Ma), our data indicate a shorter inter val (ca. 10–12 Ma) during which magmatic activity decreased significantly. Key magmatic pulses occurred during the Late Eocene (ca. 40–47 Ma), Early Miocene (ca. 23–18 Ma), and Late Miocene–Pliocene (ca. 11–5.2 Ma), with geochemical data indicating a subduction related origin. The most recent magmatic pulses in the central UDMA, potentially extend ing across the entire UDMA, are dated between 5 and 2.5 Ma, identified in a cluster of zircons from gabbroic rocks, which could correspond to the concluding stages of slab steepening related to continental subduction. Zircon εHf(t) values (−11.43 to 12.5) and geochemical data suggest fractional crystallization, crustal assimilation, and mantle-derived melts. The clinopyroxene crystallization temperatures (1150–1200 °C) and supporting geochemical data imply that magma was produced in a metasomatized spinel–lherzolite mantle at depths <80 km. This generation is associated with asthenospheric upwelling and slab rollback, which, in turn, triggered the partial melting of the lithosphere and fueled the region’s magmatic activity.

Important note: This table is based only on rock and mineral ages recorded on mindat.org for this locality and is not necessarily a complete representation of the geochronology, but does give an indication of possible mineralization events relevant to this locality. As more age information is added this table may expand in the future. A break in the table simply indicates a lack of data entered here, not necessarily a break in the geologic sequence. Grey background entries are from different, related, localities.
