Examination of mineral deposits in the Central Anatolian Crystalline Complex provides broad new insights regarding their genesis. Collision- and post-collision-related magmatic processes during closure of the northern branch of the Neotethyan Ocean, caused by northward subduction of the oceanic crust beneath the Sakarya Microcontinent in the Late Cretaceous-Eocene, led to the formation of several types of mineral deposits. These include: (1) skarn-type deposits (Pb-Zn, Fe, and Fe-W skarns); (2) vein-type deposits (molybdenum, fluorite, stibnite-cinnabar, and stibnite-cinnabar-scheelite vein deposits); (3) sedimentary diatomite, kaolinite, salt, and uranium deposits; and (4) volcanogenic perlite, pumice, and sulfur deposits. Considering their regional distribution and relationship to the geologic evolution of the region, the skarn and vein deposits constitute an important pare of the metallogeny of the Central Anatolian Crystalline Complex.

Paleogene evolution and demise of the proto-Paratethys Sea in Central Asia (Tarim and Tajik basins): Role of intensified tectonic activity at ca. 41 Ma
Kaya, Mustafa Yücel; Dupont-Nivet, Guillaume; Proust, Jeannoel; Roperch, Pierrick; Bougeois, Laurie; Meijer, Niels; Frieling, Joost; Fioroni, Chiara; Altıner, Sevinç; Vardar, Ezgi; Barbolini, Natasha; Stoica, Marius; Aminov, Jovid; Mamtimin, Mehmut; Guo Zhaojie, Guo Zhaojie (Wiley, 2019-06-01)
The proto-Paratethys Sea covered a vast area extending from the Mediterranean Tethys to the Tarim Basin in western China during Cretaceous and early Paleogene. Climate modelling and proxy studies suggest that Asian aridification has been governed by westerly moisture modulated by fluctuations of the proto-Paratethys Sea. Transgressive and regressive episodes of the proto-Paratethys Sea have been previously recognized but their timing, extent and depositional environments remain poorly constrained. This hamp...
Geoarchaelogical investigation of central anatolian caravanserais using gis
Ertepınar Kaymakcı, Pnar; Toprak, Vedat; Department of Geological Engineering (2005)
This study comprises analysis of geological, geomorphological constraints that played role in the site selection of caravanserais. In order to do this, 15 caravanserais located along a route from Nevşehir-Aksaray-Konya to Beyşehir were used. The data used in the study include a caravanserai database, lithological maps, and digital elevation model of the area. GIS analyses performed in the study are proximity, visibility, and probability distribution (PDA). The first step is the generation of the ancient tra...
EVIDENCE AGAINST THE CORE COVER INTERPRETATION OF THE SOUTHERN SECTOR OF THE MENDERES MASSIF, WEST TURKEY
Bozkurt, Erdin; WINCHESTER, JA (Wiley, 1993-01-01)
The Menderes Massif, in western Anatolia, has been described as a lithological succession comprising a basal 'Precambrian gneissic core of sedimentary origin' overlain in sequence by 'Palaeozoic schist' and 'Mesozoic-Cenozoic marble' forming the envelope. The boundary between core and schist envelope was interpreted as a major unconformity, the 'Supra-Pan-African unconformity'. By contrast, our field observations and geochemical data show that around the southern side of Besparmak Mountain, north of Selimiy...
Crust–mantle interaction in western Turkey: Implications from Sr and Nd isotope geochemistry of Tertiary and Quaternary volcanics
Güleç, Nilgün Türkan (Cambridge University Press (CUP), 1991-01-01)
The isotopic composition of Sr and Nd together with the abundance data for major and trace elements are reported for Tertiary to Quaternary volcanics from a variety of localities in western Turkey. These data are used to evaluate the role of crust–mantle interaction in the petrogenesis of the western Turkish volcanics. The major and trace element chemistry reveals a general change in the nature of volcanism from dominantly calc-alkaline in Tertiary to alkaline in Quaternary times. The calc-alkaline rocks ar...
CALCAREOUS NANNOFOSSILS FROM THE LATE JURASSIC EARLY CRETACEOUS OF NORTHWEST ANATOLIA, TURKEY
Altıner, Sevinç (Wiley, 1993-12-01)
Within the framework of an integrated stratigraphy, a detailed biostratigraphic study of Late Jurassic-Early Cretaceous (Tithonian-Valanginian) calcareous nannofossils was carried out in north-west Anatolia, Turkey.
