Yes, carbonatitic igneous rocks can be found in central Iran. These rare rock types form from unusual carbon dioxide and carbonate-rich magmas. Central Iran's location within the Alpine-Himalayan orogenic belt, with ongoing continental collision and magmatism, provides favorable geological conditions for some carbonatite occurrences.

Mr. Tiwari this is a very bold suggestion for a geodynamic setting being placed just at the opposite end of a yardstick where carbonatites used to form. Read this paper: DILL, H.G., BUZATU, A., BALABAN, S.-I. and RÜSENBERG, K. A. (2023) A mineralogical-geomorphological terrain analysis of hotspot volcanic islands -The missing link between carbonatite- and pegmatite Nb-F-Zr-Li-Be-bearing REE deposits and new tools for their exploration (Canary Islands Archipelago, Spain).- Ore Geology Reviews: 163, 105702 https://doi.org/10.1016/j.oregeorev.2023.105702 and let me know where you found such a carbonatite-hosted metal deposit. Your answer is not very much expedient.

DEAR GHOLAMREZA

GOOD AFTERNOON. I THINK CARBONATITES CAN BE FOUND IN CENTRAL IRAN DESPITE THE FACT THAT THE GEOTECTONIC ENVIRONMENT OF THE COUNTRY IS MAINLY OROGENIC. IRAN HAS PROBABLY THE WIDEST ALPINE OROGENIC BELT IN THE WORLD. WITHIN THIS WIDE BELT THERE ARE RIFT ZONES LIKE THE BAFQ AREA IN WHICH CARBONATITES OCCUR (VLADYKIN & PIRAJNO 2021, KOLAHDANI 2022). SOME OF THEM, HOWEVER, COULD BE CARBOHYDROTHERMAL RESIDUA (CARBOTHERMALITES).
