Geochemistry and Tectonic Implications of Leucogranites and Tourmalines of the Southern Menderes Massif, Southwest Turkey
Bozkurt, Erdin; Mittwede, Steven K.; Ottley, Christopher J. (Informa UK Limited, 2006-10)
Granitoid rocks of the southern Menderes Massif, SW Turkey include widespread possibly Ediacaran high-grade granitic orthogneisses and younger (Tertiary) sheets, sills and/or dikes of variably deformed tourmaline-bearing leucogranites. The latter are confined to the immediate footwall of the regional-scale ductile southern Menderes shear zone. Although both sets of granitoid rocks are essentially calc-alkaline and peraluminous, the syn- to post-collisional tourmaline-bearing leucogranites are chemically dis...
Geochemistry and petrogenesis of the diabase dykes from the Boğazkale region (Çorum, Central Anatolia)
Balcı, Uğur; Sayıt, Kaan; Department of Geological Engineering (2018)
The Izmir-Ankara-Erzincan (IAE) Suture Belt contains oceanic and continental fragments derived from the northern branch of Neotethys and associated continental entities. In the Boğazkale region (Çorum, Central Anatolia), the pieces of Neotethyan oceanic lithosphere are present in a chaotic manner, and form an ophiolitic mélange. Diabase dykes are observed in the mélange, which cross-cut various rock types of oceanic lithosphere, such as pillow basalts, gabbros and ultramafics. This study aims to investigate...
Geochemistry and Petrology of the Kösedağ metavolcanic rocks Sakarya Composite Terrane Northern Turkey
Berber, Faruk; Göncüoğlu, Mehmet Cemal; Sayıt, Kaan (2015-08-21)
Central Pontides in Northern Turkey is a key area, comprising variably metamorphosed and deformed low-grade metavolcanic rocks. In this study we report the geochemical characteristics of the Kösedağ metavolcanics (KMV), and infer their tectonomagmatic evolution. The KMV include blastomylonitic volcanic rocks covered by the Cretaceous clastics and carbonates. The chemical composition of the KMV ranges from basalt, andesite to dacite. The evolved magma compositions reflect fractionation of plagioclase, Fe-Ti ...

GEOCHEMISTRY AND PETROGENESIS OF THE ARC-RELATED KÖSDAĞ METAVOLCANICS, SOUTHERN CENTRAL PONTIDES, NORTHERN TURKEY
Berber, Faruk; Sayıt, Kaan; Department of Geological Engineering (2021-12-27)
The Kösdağ Metavolcanics (KM) in the southern Central Pontides crops out between the Izmir-Ankara-Erzincan Suture Zone (IAESZ) in the south and the Sakarya Composite Terrane in the north. The unit is represented by a low-grade metamorphic assemblage including meta-basics, meta-intermediates, and meta-felsics, interlayered with recrystallized limestone, mudstone, and chert. While the unit is bounded to the north by the North Anatolian Fault Zone (NAFZ), the Dikmen Formation stratigraphically overlie the unit...
