Abstract
The Lower Jurassic Ab-Haji Formation which is widespread across east-central Iran bur best exposed on the Tabas Block consists of sandstones, siltstones and mudstones deposited in fluvio-deltaic and marginal marine setting. Provenance studies of this formation record the geodynamic history of Central Iran during and in the aftermath of the main Cimmerian event (Triassic-Jurassic boundary to Liassic) and are crucial for the reconstruction of the tectonic setting and paleogeography of this region.
