Rare Earth Element (REE) Geochemistry of the Cretaceous Tizkuh Formation Limestones, Northwestern Iran: Mineralogical Controls and Paleoenvironmental Implications
The limestones of the Tizkuh Formation, deposited along the southern margin of the Neo-Tethys Ocean during the Cretaceous, provide an opportunity to investigate REE behavior, depositional processes, and the extent to which primary marine geochemical features may have been retained despite post-depositional modification...
