"The alkaline volcanic complex of Talyshskii was emplaced in a folded belt, located in the southeastern part of Azerbaian during Eocene (Azizbekov et al. 1979). The complex is characterized by the presence of a series of leucite- and sanidine-bearing tuffs, leucite tephrites and basanites having a total thickness of 500 m. These volcanic series were erupted during early, middle and late Eocene in the southern part of the Talyshskii zone and are extended up to Iran. According to Azizbekov et al. (1979), leucite-bearing tuffs, comprising sanidine, plagioclase, leucite, augite and hornblende set in a glassy groundmass, occur as volcanic domes at Shandan-Kalasy and Green Hill. The leucite tephrites and basanites are products of volcanoes at Geldar, Govery, Kiz-Kalashym Pashgra and Rasgov. These tephrites are characterized by the presence of phenocrystal leucite, plagioclase, olivine and augite set in a groundmass of the same phases but with additional magnetite. Leucite tephrite also occurs as sills in Dimansky. The large intrusive complex at Kalakhanskaya occurs as a cone with a height of 1732 m, comprising trachyandesite, gabbro, teschenite, picrobasalt and leucite-bearing rocks."
