C2/c pyroxene phenocrysts from three potassic series in the Neogene alkaline volcanics, NE Turkey: their crystal chemistry with petrogenetic significance as an indicator of P-T conditions
(Springer, 2009)
Chemical and structural data are reported for C2/c pyroxene phenocrysts collected from three potassic series (Group A: basanite-tephrite, Group B: tephrite-phonolitic tephrite, Group C: alkaline basalt-trachybasalt) of the ...
Temporal, geochemical and geodynamic evolution of the Late Cretaceous subduction zone volcanism in the eastern Sakarya Zone, NE Turkey: Implications for mantle-crust interaction in an arc setting
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2020)
The Late Cretaceous Artvin volcanic rocks (LCAVs) from the eastern Sakarya zone (ESZ) of NE Turkey are composed of mafic/basaltic (S1-catak and S2-caglayan) and felsic/acidic (S1-Kizilkaya and S2-Tirebolu) rock types that ...
Nature of the Early Cretaceous lamprophyre and high-Nb basaltic dykes, NE Turkey: Constraints on their linkage to subduction initiation of Neotethyan oceanic lithosphere
(Elsevier, 2021)
Late Mesozoic evolution of the Neotethys Ocean is critical and still remains unclear along the entire Sakarya Zone (SZ), Turkey, because previous interpretations of the Middle to Late Jurassic rifting of the SZ have not ...
Cordierite-bearing strongly peraluminous Cebre Rhyolite from the eastern Sakarya Zone, NE Turkey: Constraints on the Variscan Orogeny
(Elsevier, 2017)
The Cebre Rhyolite with an outcropping area up to 12 km(2) is one of the rare extrusions in the Variscan basement of the Sakarya Zone. The unit consists of high-K calc alkaline rhyolites (SiO2 = 74-82 wt.%). Abundant ...
Geochemical fingerprints of Late Triassic calc-alkaline lamprophyres from the Eastern Pontides, NE Turkey: A key to understanding lamprophyre formation in a subduction-related environment
(Elsevier Science Bv, 2014)
The Eastern Pontides in NE Turkey is one of the major orogenic belts in Anatolia. In this paper, we report our new Ar-40/Ar-39 dating, mineral chemistry, major and trace elements and Sr-Nd-Pb isotopic analyses of the ...
Tracking the timing of Neotethyan oceanic slab break-off: Geochronology and geochemistry of the quartz diorite porphyries, NE Turkey
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2020)
The initiation of the break-off of the northern branch of the Neotethyan oceanic lithosphere is an important but poorly understood event in the geology of the Sakarya Zone (SZ) in northeastern Turkey. Although it is wellknown ...
Adakite-like parental melt generation by partial fusion of juvenile lower crust, Sakarya Zone, NE Turkey: A far-field response to break-off of the southern Neotethyan oceanic lithosphere
(Elsevier Science Bv, 2019)
The timing of major tectonic events and the driving mechanisms for magma generation during Late Cenozoic convergence and collision between Arabia and Eurasia still remain unknown. The Sakarya Zone (SZ) in northern Turkey ...
Geochemical composition of magnetite from different iron skarn mineralizations in NE Turkey: implication for source of ore-forming fluids
(Springer Heidelberg, 2020)
Iron oxide mineralizations in the eastern part of the Pontides (NE Turkey) are hosted in the skarn environments which are the Pontide paleomagmatic arc. These mineralizations always occur in the contacts between granitoid ...
Geochemistry and Pb isotopic proof for sources of heavy metal(loid)s in Late Cretaceous sandstones from Eastern Pontides (NE Turkey)
(Springer, 2021)
Upper Cretaceous sedimentary rocks are widely exposed around Trabzon, Giresun and Gumushane in the eastern Pontides. The sedimentary rocks are mainly composed of sandstones and marls, and the thicknesses of these rocks ...
Geochemical and isotopic characteristics of stream and terrace sediments of the Harsit Stream, NE Turkey
(Geological Soc Publ House, 2017)
The current study compares and contrasts the elemental concentrations and the Nd, Sr and O isotopic compositions of sediments collected from the Harsit Stream bed sediments (HSBS) and terrace sediments (HSTS). There are ...
