Geochemistry of the post-collisional Miocene mafic Tunceli Volcanics, Eastern Turkey: Implications for the nature of the mantle source and melting systematics
Aktağ, Alican; Sayıt, Kaan (2019-01-01)
The East Anatolian Accretionary Complex (EAAC) comprises an ideal example of post-collisional volcanism within the Africa-Eurasia collision zone. The Miocene mafic Tuncell Volcanics, as a part of this post-collisional volcanic system, are located in the western termination of EAAC. The mafic Tunceli Volcanics are characterized by mildly alkaline and tholeiitic basalts, in which olivine, clinopyroxene and plagioclase characterize the main mineralogy. The role of fractional crystallization (FC) and assimilati...
GEOCHEMISTRY AND TECTONIC SIGNIFICANCE OF AUGEN GNEISSES FROM THE SOUTHERN MENDERES MASSIF (WEST TURKEY)
Bozkurt, Erdin; PARK, RG (1995-05-01)
The protoliths of mylonitized augen gneisses exposed in the southern sector of the Menderes Massif (West Turkey) are calc-alkaline, peraluminous, S-type, late- to post-tectonic tourmaline- and garnet-bearing, two-mica leucogranites. They cut and post-date the fabrics of the 'main Menderes metamorphism' which took place between the early Eocene and early Oligocene and intrude metamorphic basement rocks comprising the so-called 'Palaeozoic schist envelope' of the massif. They are themselves cut by an extensiv...
Geodynamic evolution of the Karakaya Melange Complex, Turkey: A review of geological and petrological constraints
Sayıt, Kaan; Göncüoğlu, Mehmet Cemal (2013-04-01)
The Karakaya Complex in the pre-Liassic basement of the Sakarya Composite Terrane includes relicts inherited from the closure of the Palaeotethys. The interpretations regarding its origin are still controversial. The main reason for these controversies is largely due to the melange character of the complex and the misidentification and misinterpretation of the tectonostratigraphic units that make up the complex. Kocyigit (1987) subdivided the complex into the Upper and Lower Karakaya Nappes. This tentative ...
Geochemistry of mafic dykes from the Southeast Anatolian ophiolites, Turkey: Implications for an intra-oceanic arc-basin system
Colakoglu, Ali Riza; Sayıt, Kaan; Gunay, Kurtulus; Göncüoğlu, Mehmet Cemal (2012-02-01)
The Late Cretaceous-Tertiary accretionary prism in Eastern Turkey includes several ophiolitic megablocks and/or tectonic slivers (Mehmetalan, Mollatopuz and Alabayir) within a melange complex, mainly comprising harzburgite, dunite and cumulate-textured gabbro. The diabases, which are the main focus of this study, cut across the ophiolites as parallel and variably thick dyke-swarms. Geochemistry of the diabases reveals three distinct groups, including a) supra-subduction zone (SSZ) type, which is characteriz...
Geochemical features of multi component mantle source domains beneath Central Anatolia
Kürkçüoğlu, Biltan; Furman, Tanya; Pickard, Megan; Şen, Erdal; Hanan, Barry; Şen, Pınar; Sayıt, Kaan; Yürür, Mehmet Tekin (2016-05-16)
Extensive volcanic activities were developed in Central Anatolia, due to dynamic nature o f the tectonic regime. Although the most of the volcanic zones are represented by major Stratovolcanoes, severe basaltic magmatism with lack of the central cones, were generated over all the Central Anatolia. In this study, we focus on Sivas mafic product s to shed more light on the mantle components, beneath the central Anatolia , that were not investigated in depth so far. Sivas mafic lavas are the mo...
