The aim of this study is to extract information about mineral distribution and percentages of Oymaagaç granitoid (Beypazari-Ankara) by using remote sensing techniques. Two methods are applied during the studies which are spectral analysis and Crosta techniques. Spectral measurements are done for fresh and weathered samples collected at 32 locations. Mineral percentages are calculated using spectral mixture analysis for each sample by considering main, accessory and secondary mineral content of granodiorite. A total of 10 endmembers for fresh samples and 15 for weathered samples are used. USGS spectral library data is utilized through the analyses. For Crosta technique (image analysis) the multispectral ASTER satellite image is used. Five alteration minerals are discriminated and their maps are generated during this analysis. Interpretation and comparison of the results of both methods and testing these results with the existing petrographical and geochemical data indicate that: 1) according to the results of both spectral analyses and Crosta technique a zonation is not observed in the granitoid, 2) comparison of the results for alteration minerals of these two analyses are partly compatible but not exactly similar, 3) Results of spectral analysis do not fit geochemical nor modal analyses because of inconsistency of the data sets.

Zircon typology and chemistry of the granitoids from central anatolia, Turkey Köksal, Serhat; Göncüoğlu, Mehmet Cemal; Department of Geological Engineering (2005) This thesis investigates the morphological, chemical and growth characteristics of zircon mineral in relation with the granitoid petrology. Physical and chemical variations recorded within zircon crystals during evolution of the Central Anatolian Granitoids are discussed. The thesis focuses on twelve granitoid samples from the Ekecikdag, Agaçören and Terlemez regions from western part of central Anatolia. These granitoids are differentiated into S- and H-type granitoids on the basis of field, petrographical...
Mineralogical, petrographical and geochemical properties of zeolite bearing tuffs in nw Anatolia (Turkey) Özen, Sevgi; Göncüoğlu, Mehmet Cemal; Department of Geological Engineering (2008) The purpose of this study is to understand the geological, petrographical, mineralogical and geochemical characteristics of analcime-bearing tuffs in the Biga Peninsula and to determine formation process of these tuffs. The study area lies between Ayvacık and Küçükkuyu. The rock units are pre-Eocene basement rocks, Miocene Behram Volcanics (Arıklı Tuff, andesite, andesitic agglomerate), Pliocene volcanics, Miocene lacustrine sediments (Küçükkuyu Formation) and Quaternary alluvium. Analcimes which are found ...
Kinetic analysis of in situ combustion processes with thermogravimetric and differential thermogravimetric analysis and reaction tube experiments Kök, Mustafa Verşan (1995-01-01) This research comprises the determination of kinetic parameters of in situ combustion processes by reaction tube and thermal (thermogravimetric analysis (TGA)/differential thermogravimetric analysis (DTGA)) experiments. A previously developed laboratory model and a Du Pont 9900 thermalanalyzer unit were used to run the experiments. Three reaction regions for combustion of crude oil in porous media were observed in the reaction tube and TGA/DTGA experiments and are defined as low temperature oxidation, fuel ...
Sample preparation with solid phase microextraction and exhaustive extraction approaches: Comparison for challenging cases Boyacı, Ezel; Gorynski, Krzysztof; Mirnaghi, Fatemeh; Souza-Silva, Erica A.; Hein, Dietmar; Pawliszyn, Janusz (2015-05-11) In chemical analysis, sample preparation is frequently considered the bottleneck of the entire analytical method. The success of the final method strongly depends on understanding the entire process of analysis of a particular type of analyte in a sample, namely: the physicochemical properties of the analytes (solubility, volatility, polarity etc.), the environmental conditions, and the matrix components of the sample. Various sample preparation strategies have been developed based on exhaustive or non-exha...
Assessment of the effect of mineralogy on the geotechnical parameters of clayey soils: A case study for the Orta County, Çankırı, Turkey Akgün, Haluk; Arslan Kelam, Arzu; Oner, Gokalp; Koçkar, Mustafa Kerem (2018-11-01) The purpose of this study is to investigate and relate the geotechnical parameters with the mineralogical properties of the Miocene and Plio-Quaternary (Pliocene to Quaternary) lacustrine and fluvial sediments, particularly clayey soils in the Orta County, cankiri. The study area is located about 110 km northeast of Ankara which is the capital city of the Republic of Turkey and Orta is a small county of cankiri. The study area is a structural depression in the northern part of the Orta plain which is filled...
