Upper parts of Elika carbonate Formation belonging to middle Triassic in central part of structural- sedimentary zone of Alborz in East of Mazandaran province (Savadkuh, Khatirkuh and Kiasar regions) are hosted some of important F-Pb-Ba ore deposits contain of PachiMiana, SheshRudbar, Era(Alikola) and Kamarposht. Based on of field observations in study, main localization of ore bodies within carbonate rocks are as acrostic, irregular, and discordant respect to bedding that are displayed in fractures and/or karstic cavities in the form of vein, lenses and bodies. Mineralogy in studied ore deposits generally is simple and mainly composed of galena, barite, fluorite, calcite and minor sphalerite. Macroscopic and microscopic observations are shown variety of syngenetic and epigenetic structures and textures. Disseminate, stylolite and micro-veinlet textures of galena and calcite with or without other mainly minerals are recognized as syn-genetic textures respect to host rocks. Epigenetic structures and textures as open space filling type such as vein-veinlet, zebra, lamination, primary replacement and colloform are dominant textures of high-grade ores that formed main and economic zones of ore body concentration in deposits. Existence of secondary textures such as curvature and wind in triangle cleavage of coarse-grained galenas and also replacement of galena by cerussite and covellite show deformation and supergene oxidation after the main stage of mineralization. Based on current research, mineralization in F-Ba-Pb ore deposits of central Mazandaran is formed and evolved at two steps (1) primary or syn-diagenetic, and (2) main or epigenetic. According to structural signatures of ore body appearance in deposits environment and also textural evidences in macroscopic and microscopic scales, the main and economic stage of mineralization in studied ore deposits is introduced as epigenetic.

2 - Sulfur source tracing of sulfide and sulfate minerals in fluorite Mines of the Elika Formation (East of Mazandaran Province): Implications of sulfur isotope
Zabihitabar bahman shafiei Mirnejad

Sulfur source tracing based on of sulfide (galena and pyrite) and sulfate (barite) mineralization in fluorite deposits of Elika Formation (East of Mazandaran Province) is studied. In present research. δ34S values vary between -1.82 – +12.49 ‰, +13.22 – +25.83 ‰ and +22. More

Sulfur source tracing based on of sulfide (galena and pyrite) and sulfate (barite) mineralization in fluorite deposits of Elika Formation (East of Mazandaran Province) is studied. In present research. δ34S values vary between -1.82 – +12.49 ‰, +13.22 – +25.83 ‰ and +22.69 – +32.91 ‰ for galena, pyrite and barite, respectively. Regionally, although wide range of δ34S in sulfides is interpreted as isotopic heterogeneity of source and/or processes of reduced sulfur supply for sulfide mineralization in the studied area, but each deposit has narrow range of δ34S. Compared to sulfides, barites show isotopic homogeneity in heavier δ34S which are corresponding to evaporates from coexisted sea water (Middle-Upper Triassic; Paland Formation). Based on stratigraphic and mineralogical data of host rocks, co-existing evaporates of Triassic sea water and also diagenetic primary sulfates in matrix of host rocks (anhydrite, gypsum, barite) are introduced as the most probable sources of sulfur for sulfide mineralization in Shesh Rodbar and Era deposits. In contrast, contribution of organic matter and/or diagenetic primary pyrites had main role in generation of light δ34S values in Pachi Miana and Kamarposht deposits. Thermo-chemical reduction of digenetic primary sulfates and thermal decomposition of diagenetic primary sulfides as well as sulfur bonds in organic matter-bearing laminaes in the host rock are introduced as main processes for reduced sulfur supply in sulfide mineralization.
