Abstract

The ELIKAH FORMATION crops out northeast of JAJARM in Ozon Mountain in EASTERN ALBORZ (Binalud Transitional zone) and attains a thickness of up to 216 meters. This formation consists of carbonatic and siliciclastic facies and was deposited in platform environment at Early to Middle TRIASSIC (Scythian-Ladinian) period. The ELIKAH FORMATION disconformably overlies a thick laterite-bauxite horizon (2 m) of Late Permian age. This laterite-bauxite horizon also disconformably overlies limestones of the Mobarak Formation with Early Carboniferous (Visean) age. The ELIKAH FORMATION is covered disconformably by the Shemshak Formation of Late TRIASSIC (Norian-Rhaetian) to early Middle Jurassic age. There is a red, thick bauxite horizon (7 m) at the base of the Shemshak Formation. The laterite-bauxite horizons in lower and upper boundaries of the ELIKAH FORMATION show sedimentation gaps (continental erosion) at these boundaries. The gap between the Elikah and Shemshak Formations is related to Early Cimmerian orogenic phase, which had resulted from the collision of the Iran and Turan plates. This collision in the JAJARM area probably occurred at early Late TRIASSIC (Carnian) time.
