The theoretical period ratio of Milankovitch's cycles during this depositional period is also calculated. Second, the GR logging data from the four boreholes of the Renlou Mine (S1–S4) are analysed for cyclothem stratigraphy by Acycle software. Finally, a floating astronomical dating scale was established with S1 borehole 1007.93 m at 293 Ma as an anchor point by using 405 ka long eccentricity for astronomical tuning. The results show that the coal-bearing rock systems of the Permian Upper and Lower Shihezi Formations in Renlou Coal Mine are obviously controlled and driven by Milankovitch cycles.

This study specifically investigates the influence of the Nezamabad Fault on sedimentation and hydrocarbon accumulation within the external Fars region. Advanced methodologies— including isopach maps and basin modeling—were employed to examine the spatial distribution of source rocks, reservoir rocks, and cap rocks around the Nezamabad Fault. Notably, the findings reveal that the Nezamabad Fault functions as a significant basement fault, actively controlling hydrocarbon distribution during geological epochs. The isopach maps show significant differences in formation thickness, which reflect variations in regional stress patterns. This differential stress has been fundamental in forming fractures, folds, and structural traps, critical for hydrocarbon migration and accumulation. The analyses indicate that areas adjacent to the Nezamabad Fault demonstrate potential for successful drilling efforts, especially within the Fahliyan and Sarvak Formations, which have shown consistent thickness patterns, suggesting stable sedimentation conditions. Conversely, the Ilam and Gurpi Formations exhibited significant thickness variations influenced by tectonic activity, indicating a more complex sedimentological environment. The integration of isopach data with geomechanical modeling and geological insights has enhanced the understanding of the complex relationships between stress dynamics and hydrocarbon potential in the ZFTB. These findings have significant implications, providing a foundation for refining exploration and production strategies to optimize hydrocarbon extraction in this energy-rich region.

The results indicate that the sedimentary basin of the Jahrum Formation is of an internal ramp type, conforming to the Sachun Formation at its lower boundary and exhibiting an erosional unconformity with the Asmari Formation at its upper frontier.

These deposits are formed at least into three primary clusters, i.e., Miduk, Sarcheshmeh, and Daralu, as well as sporadic individual occurences, which are closely associated with magmatic activity from the early Oligocene to the mid-late Miocene. This review synthesizes the geological and geochemical characteristics of ore-related intrusions in the Kerman region, integrating extensive published data to explore their sources and genesis. The U–Pb ages of Cu– Mo (Au) ore forming intrusions indicate two major magmatic phases, around ∼32 Ma and 20–10 Ma. The magmatism in the region produced numerous Cu– Mo (Au) mineralization-related intrusions, dominantly by diorite, monzodiorite, quartz diorite, and granodiorite composition. Geochemical evidence suggests that these intrusions originated from a shared source comprising varying proportions of slab-derived melts, metasomatized lithospheric mantle, and minor contributions from lower crustal materials. Notably, the felsic rock shows a greater incorporation of lower crustal materials compared to the more mafic rocks. The ore-related intrusions in the Kerman region were emplaced in a tectonic setting transitioning from subduction to collision and post-collision, reflecting both extensional and compressional regimes. Oxygen isotope data indicate that ore-forming fluids were primarily magmatic in origin, with minor contributions from meteoric water during the late stages of mineralization. Sulfur isotope analysis of sulfides reveals that the ore-forming materials were largely magmatic, with contributions from sedimentary components.

Unlike other regions of the CVL, this area is characterised by a higher prevalence of felsic and intermediate rocks compared to basaltic ones. Detailed investigations into the petrogenetic evolution of these rocks are currently limited. For this reason, Cenozoic alkaline basaltic lavas from the Kapsiki Plateau (Moukoulvi) were studied to enhance comprehension of their crystallisation process, genetic evolution of the magma, and insights into its petrogenesis and source mineralogy. The examined lavas are comparable to the mafic lavas that span the whole range of the CVL and demonstrate major and trace element characteristics similar to those seen in ocean island basalts (OIB). The major and trace element compositions suggest fractional crystallisation mainly including olivine, clinopyroxene, and Fe–Ti oxide with evidence of crustal contamination. The multi-element diagrams reveal consistency with those reported from other CVL volcanoes, displaying depletion of heavy rare earth elements (HREE) and enrichment of light rare elements (LREE), indicating an enriched source and the existence of garnet. The studied lavas have high large ion lithophile element (LILE) contents (Sr = 812–1065 ppm, Ba = 394–467 ppm) relative to high field strength elements (HFSE) (Sr/Zr = 3.97–4.94; average OIB = ∼1 Ba/La = 9.42–11.72; average OIB = 9.4). They also have Zr/Sm ratios (26.93–29.88) that are similar to the average OIB (Zr/Sm = 28). Moreover, the studied lavas exhibit elevated levels of incompatible trace elements (e.g., Rb, Pr, U, and Th), as well as higher Ta/Yb and Th/Yb ratios compared to normal OIB values, associated with a notable fluctuation in Nb/Ta and Zr/Hf ratios. The correlations between Th, La, U, and SiO&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt;, coupled with the trend of the samples on Nb/Y &lt;em&gt;vs.&lt;/em&gt; Rb/Y diagrams, indicate the influence of crustal contamination on the lavas' composition. The source of these lavas was a heterogeneous source with less than 4 % garnet that underwent partial melting of less than 2 %. The presence of a Pb depletion (Ce/Pb &gt; 30) also implies that these magmas belong to the high μ (HIMU)-OIB type, attributed to lithospheric mantle metasomatism. The formation of these magmas involved partial melting of a mantle source evolving chemically and mineralogically over time with a HIMU composition at very low temperatures. Hydrous minerals, such as phlogopite or amphibole, may indicate modal metasomatism, supported by high Rb/Sr ratios or K&lt;sub&gt;2&lt;/sub&gt;O high levels. Sr/Zr ratios (3.97–4.94) above OIB values (0.8–1.5) suggest Sr and Ba-rich fluid influence. Elevated Zr/Sm ratios (&gt;28) and variations in Nb/Ta and Zr/Hf ratios point to metasomatic fluids or melts altering the mantle's composition.

Vertical Electrical Sounding (VES) surveys were conducted to delineate subsurface lithological variations, while hydrogeological parameters such as porosity, hydraulic conductivity, permeability, and hydraulic resistance were determined to understand groundwater flow dynamics. The VES results revealed four to five geoelectric layers with varying resistivities, thicknesses, and depths, highlighting the complexity of the subsurface. These layers were classified as lateritic sand, medium-coarse brownish sand, coarse sand, and fine-medium coarse-grained sand. The low resistivity observed in parts of the study area suggests the influence of geological structures such as faults and fractures. Groundwater vulnerability indices including Aquifer Vulnerability Index (AVI), GOD index, and GLSI indexes were computed to assess susceptibility to pollution.
