Geochemistry and U-Pb ages from the Kösdağ Metavolcanics in the southern Central Pontides (Turkey): Complementary data for early Late Cretaceous island arc development in the Northern Neotethys

The Kösdağ Metavolcanics (KMs) in the southern Central Pontides are exposed between the İzmir-Ankara-Erzincan Suture Belt in the south and the Sakarya Composite Terrane in the north. They comprise an approximately 40-km-long tectonic unit, bounded by the splays of the North Anatolian Transform Fault in the north and the Kızılca Thrust in the south. The basement of the unit mainly consists of metabasalts, metaandesites, and metarhyolites, with well-developed blastomylonitic textures, which are interlayered by recrystallized pelagic limestone and chert.

Ichnology of the miocene Güneyce Formation (Southwest Turkey): Oxygenation and sedimentation dynamics

The Güneyce Formation is well exposed in the Lake District of southwestern Turkey. It was deposited in the early Miocene in the Neotethys ocean and contains a large variety of trace fossils. The following ichnotaxa were recognized: Chondrites intricatus, C. targionii, Cosmorhaphe isp., Helminthopsis isp., Helminthorhaphe flexuosa, Lorenzinia isp., Naviculichnium marginatum,...

Assimilation and fractional crystallization of foid-bearing alkaline rocks: Buzlukdağ intrusives, Central Anatolia, Turkey

$Assimilation and fractional crystallization of foid-bearing alkaline rocks: Buzlukdağ intrusives, Central Anatolia, Turkey$

Felsic intrusive rocks within the Central Anatolian Crystalline Complex provide a window into the geodynamic processes in operation during the final closure of the Neotethys Ocean. Previous studies were largely restricted to the calc-alkaline granitoids, and the structural and petrogenetic relations of syenitoids are poorly studied.

Geochemistry of the metavolcanic rocks from the Çangaldağ Complex in the Central Pontides: implications for the Middle Jurassic arc-back-arc system in the Neotethyan Intra-Pontide Ocean

The Çangaldağ Complex in northern central Turkey is one of the main tectonic units of the Central Pontide Structural Complex that represents the remains of the poorly known Intra-Pontide branch of the Neotethys. It comprises low-grade metamorphic rocks of intrusive, extrusive, and volcaniclastic origin displaying a wide range of felsic to mafic compositions.
