REE Characteristics of Lower Cretaceous Limestone Succession in Gumushane, NE Turkey: Implications for Ocean Paleoredox Conditions and Diagenetic Alteration
(Mdpi, 2020)
Trace and rare earth elements (REEs) are considered to be reliable indicators of chemical processes for the evolution of carbonate systems. One of the best examples of ancient carbonate successions (Berdiga Formation) is ...
Melting of the juvenile lower crust in a far-field response to roll-back of the southern Neotethyan oceanic lithosphere: the Oligocene adakitic dacites, NE Turkey
(Elsevier, 2020)
Late Cenozoic tectono-thermal events and associated magmatism in the Sakarya Zone (SZ) are still contested. Although documented in the western part of the SZ, thus far, no magmatic activity has been identified in the eastern ...
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 ...
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 ...
Fluid inclusion and stable isotope constraints (C, O, H) on the Dagbasi Fe-Cu-Zn skarn mineralization (Trabzon, NE Turkey)
(Elsevier, 2020)
The Dagbasi Fe-Cu-Zn skarn mineralization developed along the contact between the block and lens shaped limestones of the Lower Cretaceous Berdiga Formation and the Upper Cretaceous Dagbasi Granitoid. the exoskam-type ...
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 B.V., 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 ...
