The JQI belongs to a suite of Ediacaran alkaline granitic intrusions known as the Abanat suite. The intrusive rocks of the Abanat suite were emplaced within a stabilized and exhumed crust that was rapidly covered by Cambrian sandstones following the final assembly of Arabian Shield terranes. The JQI is an elliptical composite intrusion that extends in a NE-SW direction with a length of ca. 15 km and a maximum width of about 12 km. Few outcrops show that the JQI intruded the Murdama Group with sharp intrusive contacts between the two units, but most outcrops are obscured by alluvial deposits. The JQI consists of an early phase of syenogranite and a late phase of alkali feldspar granite. They are distinguished in the field by differences in color and texture. The central alkali feldspar granite body is partly surrounded by the syenogranite, forming a ring complex. Contact relationships indicate that the alkali feldspar granites intruded into the syenogranite, displaying either sharp or gradational contacts. The outer margins of the syenogranite are strongly tectonized, associated with the development of alteration zones of sericitization and silicification. Along the southwestern contact zone of the JQI, skarn assemblages comprising diopside, andesine, epidote, and garnet. A Rb-Sr age of 579 ± 4 Ma for the Qutn granites.
