Igneous rocks in central Iran preserve proof of several episodes of Late Mesozoic–Cenozoic Neotethyan subduction, and record temporal and spatial variations from subduction to collisional geodynamic regimes that remain a subject of debate. We revisit magmatic rocks from the central Urumieh–Dokhtar m...
