Abstract

The Kerman’s structural situation and the SHAHDAD’S STRUCTURAL JUNCTION, is located in Central Iran, which caused the influence of field stress that results from convergent and collision between the Arabia and Eurasia Plates. Concentration of the fault and fold structures with the north northwest-south southeast trend indicates stress concentration in this area. The Nayband, Gowk, Lakarkuh and Ravar RIGHT LATERAL STRIKE-SLIP FAULTs with the north-south trend as well as Kohbanan, Behabad, Anduhjerd with the northwest -southeast trend convergent had raised expectation about earthquake concentration in this area of the Kerman Province. However, at the latter decades, some parts of Gowk and Kohbanan faults were increasing their seismic activities. The reason may be related to the special structural characteristics of the faults. Forming up the BLOCK FAULTING with different sizes and forming some junction areas between the fault structures was the reason for distributing stress and different structural behavior. For this reasons, at the SHAHDAD’S STRUCTURAL JUNCTION some parts of Gowk faults and around Zarand along the Kohbanan fault, there are concentration of seismic activities. The Mesozoic units and Neogene sedimentary deposits folding as well as anti clock rotation some blocks faulting are appeared at the SHAHDAD’S STRUCTURAL JUNCTION area. These seem as reactions of compressional stress affected on the north-south direction in this area.
