The Kurancali ultramafic-mafic cumulate body, an allochthonous ophiolitic sliver in central Anatolia, is characterized by the presence of abundant hydrous phases (phlogopite, pargasite) besides augitic diopside, plagioclase, and accessory amounts of rutile, sphene, apatite, zircon, and calcite. Based on modes of the essential minerals, the olivine-orthopyroxene-free cumulates are grouped as clinopyroxenite, hydrous clinopyroxenite, phlogopitite, hornblendite, layered gabbro, and diorite. Petrographical, mineralogical and geochemical features of the rocks infer crystallization from a hydrous magma having high-K calcalkaline affinity with slightly alkaline character, and point to metasomatised mantle as the magma source. Our evidence implies that the metasomatising component, which modified the composition of the mantle wedge source rock in an intraoceanic subduction zone, was a H2O, alkali and carbonate-rich aluminosilicate fluid and/or melt, probably derived from a subducted slab. We suggest that the metasomatic agents in the subarc mantle led to the generation of a hydrous magma, which produced the Kurancali cumulates in an island-arc basement in a supra-subduction-zone setting during the closure of the Izmir-Ankara-Erzincan branch of the Alpine Neotethys Ocean.

Environmental effect and genetic influence: a regional cancer predisposition survey in the Zonguldak region of Northwest Turkey
KADİR, Selahattin; Onen-Hall, A. Piril; Aydin, S. Nihal; Yakicier, Cengiz; Akarsu, Nurten; Tuncer, Murat (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2008-03-01)
The Cretaceous-Eocene volcano-sedimentary units of the Zonguldak region of the western Black Sea consist of subalkaline andesite and tuff, and sandstone dominated by smectite, kaolinite, accessory chlorite, illite, mordenite, and analcime associated with feldspar, quartz, opal-CT, amphibole, and calcite. Kaolinization, chloritization, sericitization, albitization, Fe-Ti-oxidation, and the presence of zeolite, epidote, and illite in andesitic rocks and tuffaceous materials developed as a result of the degrad...
Intrusive products of H2O and CO2 rich alkaline melt (Karakoç Magmatic Association): Significance in tethyan realm, Turkey
Toksoy Köksal, Fatma (null; 2012-10-01)
The Karakoç Magmatic Association (KMA) within the Central Anatolian Crystalline Complex (CACC) consists of ultramafic cumulates, layered gabbros and diorite. The KMA intruded the carbonate dominated upper part of the CACC as a network and includes host rock xenoliths. The KMA is characterized by abundance of Ca-rich phases (green diopside (Mg#=57-93), pargasite (Mg#=41-86), plagioclase (An=91-95), scapolite (Me=42-92), calcite) and Ca-free minerals (phlogopite (Mg#=71-76), alkali-feldspar). The accessories...
Extrusive members of postcollisional A-type magmatism in Central Anatolia: Karahidir Volcanics, Idis Dagi-Avanos Area, Turkey
Koksal, S; Göncüoğlu, Mehmet Cemal; Floyd, PA (2001-08-01)
The Idis Dagi Igneous Complex is one of a number of late-stage plutonic bodies within the Central Anatolian Crystalline Complex. It intrudes Paleozoic-Mesozoic metamorphic basement rocks and Late Cretaceous granitoids. The complex comprises mainly quartz syenites and alkali-feldspar quartz syenites known as the Idis Dagi Syenitoids.
Whole-Rock and Nd-Pb isotope geochemistry and radiolarian ages of the volcanics from the Yüksekova Complex (Maden Area, Elazığ, E Turkey): Implications for a Late Cretaceous (Santonian-Campanian) Back-Arc basin in the southern Neotethys
Ural, Melek; Sayıt, Kaan; TEKİN, UĞUR KAĞAN (2022-01-31)
The Southeast Anatolian Orogenic Belt (SAOB) is characterized by a tectonic assemblage consisting of dismembered ophiolites, subduction-related as-semblages, and continental fragments. Whether the subduction-related volcanic assemblages formed in a Southern Neotethys oceanic arc-basin system (the Yüksekova Complex) or in a back-arc basin (the Maden Complex) originated after the closure of Southern Neotethys is still debated. To shed light on this matter, we focus on the Maden area, known as the type localit...
CONODONT DISTRIBUTION ACROSS THE MID-CARBONIFEROUS BOUNDARY IN THE CENTRAL TAURIDES, TURKEY
Atakul-Ozdemir, Ayse; Altıner, Demir; Altıner, Sevinç (2012-07-01)
The Mid-Carboniferous boundary in the Aladag Unit of the Central Taurides, previously delineated on the basis of foraminifers, is now further recognizable on the basis of conodonts. Latest Serpukhovian conodonts are assigned to the Rhachistognathus muricatus Zone, whereas the early Bashkirian forms correspond to the Declinognathodus inaequalis - Declinognathodus noduliferus Zone. Conodont assemblages discovered in the Taurides are comparable to those described from Mid-Carboniferous boundary sections in Nor...
