Abstract

The study area is located in the southern boundary of the Eastern Alborz range between North Shahroud Fault and Astaneh fault. The exposed formations are from Paleozoic to Cenozoic in age. Several structural surveys such as geometrical analysis of folds and geometrical and kinematical analysis of faults were studied. Field observations and software analysis revealed that most folded structures show a northeast-southwest trend in the eastern area and an east-west axis in the western area. Due to location of E-W trending mesoscopic folds on the hanging-wall of Tazareh thrust fault, these mesoscopic folds are fault-related folds. Axes and axial plane of folds revealed that macroscopic folds with a tendency toward south-east, are consistent with flower structure of the Alborz range. Available faults in the area have two trends: northeast-southwest in the eastern part and east-west trend in the western area, and their arrangements give a scaly situation to the area. Therefore, due to existence of east-west compressional structures, it could be suggested that Dehmolla Contractional duplex is developed as a result of strike-slip faulting between Shahroud and Astaneh faults.
