Kestanbol pluton (Biga Peninsula) NW Turkey and its volcanic assemblages hosts magmatic and hydrothermal mineralization around Naldöken village, AyvacıkÇanakkale. Various rocks assemblages and their spatial with temporal relations was studied to identify their alteration-mineralization characteristics of the study area. By means of this study, Naldöken mineralization is attributed to emplacement of quartz monzodiorite (20.1 Ma), creating potassic alterations on proximal and lithocap with chalcedonic quartz veins and silica cemented breccia dominated mineralization on distal zones. Proposed model for formation of quartz veins and breccia is attributed to NNE-SSW trending dextral coeval faulting creating transtensional stress conditions. Moreover, geochronological and geochemical investigations resulted the emplaced rock bodies and coeval alteration assemblages proved that Naldöken mineralization was occurred during early Miocene (22-19 Ma) in volcanic-arc settings. Investigations also identified the Naldöken mineralization is a typical low-sulfidation mineralization with a porphyry type of root.

Evolution of the Çiçekdağı Basin, Central Anatolia, Turkey Gülyüz, Erhan; Kaymakcı, Nuretdin; Department of Geological Engineering (2010) Çiçekdağı basin developed on the Central Anatolian Crystalline Complex (CACC) is a foreland basin developed as the southern integral part of the Çankırı Basin during the Late Paleocene to middle Oligocene. The basin has two compartments separated by the Çiçekdağı High comprises two sedimentary cycles. The oldest cycle comprises Baraklı, Kocaçay and Boğazköy formationsa and is exposed both in the northern and the southern sectors. They were deposited in marine conditions. The second cycle comprises İncik and...
Petrology and geochronology of the igneous rocks from the Çangaldağ metamorphic complex and the Çangaldağ pluton (Central Pontides, Turkey) Çimen, Okay; Göncüoğlu, Mehmet Cemal; Sayıt, Kaan; Department of Geological Engineering (2016) The Central Pontide Structural Complex (CPSC) in northern Turkey forms an imbricated unit that consists of a number of variable metamorphic oceanic assemblages between the Istanbul-Zonguldak and Sakarya Composite terranes. The Çangaldağ Complex comprising the Çangaldağ Metamorphic Complex and the Çangaldağ Pluton is one of the members of this body and occurs as an E-W trending 30 km long and 15 km wide belt to the north of the Kastamonu-Boyabat Tertiary basin. The Çangaldağ Metamorphic Complex consists pred...
Genetic Modeling Of The Şamli (Balıkesir) Iron Deposit Yılmazer, Erkan; Güleç, Nilgün Türkan; Kuşcu, İlkay; Department of Geological Engineering (2012) Şamlı Fe-oxide (+Cu±Au) deposit is hosted by Şamlı pluton and rocks of Karakaya Complex in western Anatolia. The pluton consists of both mafic and felsic phases showing magma mixing textures. 40Ar/39Ar geochronology yielded an age range of 23.2±0.5 to 22.42±0.11 Ma for the Şamlı pluton, overlapping with 40Ar/39Ar age of 22.33±0.59 Ma and U-Pb age of 23.34±0.19 Ma from alterations. Sr-Nd isotope data are suggestive of a metasomatized subcontinental lithospheric mantle (SCLM) source for the magma. Alteration-...
Sedimentological and cyclostratigraphic analysis of upper part of the kartal formation (sw of Ankara) Aghayev, Rufat; Yılmaz, İsmail Ömer; Department of Geological Engineering (2008) The Montian Kartal Formation lies in the south-west of Ankara region and overlies the Upper Cretaceous Beyobasi Formation and is overlain by Thanetian Kırkkavak Formation conformably in the studied region (Kayabası village, NW of town of Haymana). A 283 m stratigraphic section, which is mainly composed of an alternation siliciclastic and carbonate rocks has been measured in the Kartal Formation within the Haymana-Polatlı basin. The aim of this study is to carry out the sedimentological and cyclostratigraphi...
Planktonic foraminiferal biostratigraphy of the paleocene-eocene sequences in the western and central black sea region, Turkey Güray, Alev; Altıner, Sevinç; Department of Geological Engineering (2014) The Paleocene-Eocene sequences are widely distributed around onshore and offshore Black Sea. When the previous studies in the Turkish coasts of the Black Sea are considered, the deficiency of a detailed biostratigraphical framework attracts the attention. The taxonomy of the planktonic foraminifera and the benthic foraminifera assemblages are important for the establishment of the new biostratigraphical frame in the Paleocene-Eocene sequences of the Western and Central Black Sea regions. The Paleocene-Eocen...
