    Preface

    Dear Colleagues,

    We are pleased to welcome you in Muğla and have your contribution to the

    8th International Symposium on Eastern Mediterranean Geology (ISEMG).

    The home of earliest civilizations on Earth, the Eastern Mediterranean is among the

    most interesting regions in Earth Sciences. Earliest discoveries related to the Earth’s

    geology, such as the use of ore deposits or fossil fuels took place in the Eastern

    Mediterranean. Besides, intense seismic and volcanic activity or extreme climate

    changes played crucial roles in shaping the civilizations and developments in this

    region.

    The complex geology of the Eastern Mediterranean is still an appealing subject for

    many earth scientists. Since decades, onland and offshore researches revealed

    extensive amount of information on the geologic, tectonic, seismic and climatic history

    of the region. Besides, discoveries of natural resources raised interest for new

    research and investments in the Eastern Mediterranean.

    The 8th ISEMG received about 240 abstracts from 27 countries with a very wide range

    of topics, indicating that Eastern Mediterranean is still a remarkable region for Earth

    scientist.

    We are hoping that the 8thISEMG will provide a platform for all participating experts in

    geology, geophysics, mining and other geosciences to share and discuss their recent

    work and establish new international networks among several disciplines of

    Geosciences.

    Several local enterprises have also shown interest to ISEMG and valued the efforts of

    the Earth science community. Without the support of our sponsors (listed on the

    sponsor page) we would not have been able to accomplish this symposium. We are

    much obliged for their financial support.

    The Department of Geological Engineering of Muğla Sıtkı Koçman University is

    honoured to host the 8th ISEMG. We hope you will appreciate the meeting and will

    enjoy your stay in Muğla.

    Kind regards,

    8th ISEMG Organizing Committee

    The Eastern Mediterranean is the only remnant of the Neo-Tethys. Until now it was

    believed that the subduction system to its north was a unified structure that had come

    into existence during the late Cretaceous (according to some) or during the medial

    Miocene (according to others). It now seems that both is correct in that the subduction

    zone of the Cyprus Arc formed during the Turonian, whereas the Hellenic Arc formed

    during the medial Miocene (some 13 Ma ago). The key to this realisation lies in the

    tectonic evolution of the Ayyubidorogen. The Ayyubids formed by ophioliteobduction

    during the Turonian to Campanian interval. This ophioliteobduction was abortive in

    Libya and Egypt where it created a major germanotypeorogen. By contrast, it was well

    developed in southern Turkey, Cyprus, Syria and along the Zagros where a major

    alpinotypeorogen came into existence. The boundary between the abortive and the full

    obduction coincides with a major inferred north-south transform fault boundary that

    today coincides with the transition from the Hellenic to the Cyprus arcs. Along-strike

    complexities along collision zones are very varied and become smeared into narrow

    zones of deformation following the collision, along which the earlier complexities are

    exceedingly difficult to disentangle, which, however, are crucial for an understanding

    of the evolution of the pre-collisional evolution of orogens.

    Post-collisional complexities are of different nature and are usually better preserved. I

    here present the changes of tectonic style along the North Anatolian Shear Zone

    extending from Karlıova in eastern Turkey to the Ionian Sea. The North Anatolian

    Shear zone changes from a well-defined strike-slip fault system to a broad zone of

    normal faulting with rotating fault blocks, where the older orogenic fabric abruptly

    changes course at about the Pelion Peninsula in Greece.

    Such complexities are usually not taken into account by modellers applying simple

    engineering concepts to extremely complex tectonic phenomena. The result usually is

    that the models generated bear little resemblance to what is on the ground making

    dialogue between modellers and geologists difficult. Keywords:Eastern Mediterranean, Ayyubids, Hellenic Trench, Cyprus Trench, North Anatolian

    Geoscientific knowledge and understanding lies at the heart of many of the most

    critical societal issues that face us in the 21st century. The pressing human challenges

    of natural disaster reduction, energy supply and security, and mineral and water

    resource management, rest on geological foundations. And yet, outside of the

    academic and industrial geoscience community there is a limited appreciation of Earth

    Science, especially among policy makers and the wider public. The result is that

    geology is largely out of sight and out of mind. It is for that reason that professional

    geologists are increasingly being encouraged to communicate more broadly what they

    do and what they know. Yet how can we do that when, for most people, geology is

    about 'stones' and stones are 'boring'! It is a problem compounded by the fact that

    many of our most acute geo-issues pertain to the unfamiliar realm of the deep

    subsurface. To counter this, this talk will use a decade of experience in popularising

    geoscience for mainstream television programmes to explore ways in which geologists

    can make our subject connect better with the dissonant public, and in doing so forge

    more effective strategies for meaningful public engagement. Keywords:

    The onset of glaciations in the northern hemisphere is referred to approximately 2.7

    Ma. Whether this onset in the Alps is synchronous or not, it is still unknown. Building

    of ice sheets must have resulted in a landscape change, which is recorded in the

    oldest Quaternary deposits in the Alps. The focus of this study is on these old

    deposits, the Deckenschotter, which are glaciofluvial gravels covering Tertiary Molasse

    or Mesozoic bedrock. Based on their distinct topographical positions, these gravels can

    be divided into two units: Höhere (Higher) and Tiefere (Lower) Deckenschotter. To

    characterize the onset of glaciations in the Alps, we reconstruct the chronology of

    Swiss Deckenschotter and thus contribute to the understanding of the large-scale

    evolution history of the Alpine Foreland. In order to reveal the extent of paleoglacial

    catchments we use detailed lithostratigraphy.

    To reconstruct the chronology of Deckenschotter, we apply two different methods:

    depth-profile dating, which uses the fact that cosmogenic nuclide build-up diminishes

    with depth and isochron-burial dating that is based on different pre-burial but same

    post-burial histories of quartz pebbles originating from the same timeline. Here, we

    show first results of two Higher Deckenschotter sites in northern Switzerland. At these

    sites, sediment samples were taken for depth-profile dating with 10Be and quartz

    pebbles for isochron-burial dating with 10Be and 26Al. First results from one site

    indicate that these units were accumulated during a cold period approximately 2 Ma

    ago and pebbles were derived from the catchment of the Rhein-Linth Paleoglacier. We

    thus think that Quaternary glaciations in the Alps should have begun prior to 2 Ma. Keywords: Cosmogenic, 10Be, 26Al, Quaternary, dating, Deckenschotter, terrace

    The Anatolian landmass between the Mediterranean and the Black Sea is climatically a

    highly sensitive area. It is even more so if we consider climate change and this leads

    to the simple question: are there any terrestrial paleoclimate archives which allow the

    retrieval of basic paleo data? Over the past 15 years substantial findings have been

    possible through several research groups on the existance of former glaciers in

    Anatolia. Available paleoglacier chronologies show glacier expansions in the high

    mountains of Anatolia during the last major global cold phase = MIS 2 of the marine

    isotope stratigraphy. Evidence for earlier glacier expansions is, so far, not fully

    established. However, glacier oszillations between 25 and 10 ka BP are well confirmed

    and their correlation with other paleoclimate archives, e.g. the Greenland ice core

    record, are now under careful study. In addition, implications for ice-age

    paleocirculation patterns during MIS 2 are evaluated. Keywords: Glaciations, Quaternary, Anatolia, Correlations, Greenland, Paleocirculation

    Chronology of Late Quaternary Glaciers and Inferred

    Paleoclimate on the Mediterranean Coast of Turkey Mehmet Akif Sarikaya1, Attila Çiner1

    1Istanbul Technical University, Turkey

    We report an overview of Late Quaternary glaciers and paleoclimate of Turkey,

    specifically on the SW and central Taurus Mountains located along the Mediterranean

    coast of Turkey. Several glaciated mountains exist on the western and central sector

    of the Taurus such as Mount Sandiras, Akdağ, Geyikdağ, Bolkar and Aladağlar. Over

    the last decade, the knowledge on the Late Quaternary glacial history of Turkey has

    dramatically increased. The cosmogenic exposure ages obtained from glacial

    landforms in these mountains provided significant information regarding the timing of

    glaciations. Here, we revised the glacio-geological literature of these mountains, and

    provided a synthesis of extent and chronology of Late Quaternary glaciations using up-

    to-date data. Results indicate that the oldest glaciers were developed prior to the

    global-Last Glacial Maximum (LGM), about 30-40 ka ago. Later, glaciers reached their

    maximum extents during the LGM (21-18 ka ago). Younger advances took place

    during Late Glacial (15 ka ago) and in Younger Dryas (around 12 ka ago). Unusual

    Early Holocene glaciations, dated to 9 ka-10 ka, were also reported from Mount

    Erciyes and Aladağlar. Late Holocene (3-5 ka ago) and Little Ice Age advances were

    less extensive than older glaciations, and developed only at certain locations, as

    predecessor of the present glaciers. Using the glacier modeling and paleoclimate

    proxies from the Eastern Mediterranean, we estimated that if temperatures during the

    LGM were 8-11oC colder than modern, which is suggested by paleotemperature

    proxies in the region, precipitation on the southwest Taurus was up to two times more

    than that of today, which is at odds with the conventional view of the LGM as being

    cold and dry. Keywords: Glacier, paleoclimate, Quaternary, cosmogenic dating

    We applied cosmogenic 36Cl dating to two normal fault scarps of the Manisa Fault Zone

    at the western end of the Gediz Graben and reconstructed their rupture history. The

    Gediz Graben is located in the West Anatolian Extensional Province (Turkey), which

    appears one of the regions of intense seismic activity. To provide sufficient data set for

    the rupture history reconstruction of the Manisa Fault Zone, we cut 7 meter profile of

    the Manastir scarp and collected 87 samples. Rupture history of the Mugirtepe fault

    scarp was recovered by reanalysis of a complemented 44-sample data set by Akçar et

    al. (2012). New advanced model for fault scarp dating and paleoearthquake

    reconstruction (Tikhomirov et al. 2014) was used for interpretation of measured 36Cl

    profiles. Best fit solutions for the Mugirtepe data set indicated that the scarp was

    ruptured by 2.5 ± 0.4 m (2σ) during period of seismic activity at 6 ± 1.5 kyr B.P.

    (2σ). After this period the Mugirtepe fault was deactivated, and later seismic activity is

    related to the Manastir fault. Last ruptures of the Manastir fault scarp occurred during

    2.1 ± 0.8 kyr B.P (2σ), when lower 7 ± 1.1 (2σ) m of scarp surface were exposed.

    Recent seismic activity was not detected in displacements of the fault scarps. Keywords: Normal fault scarp, Cosmogenic 36Cl dating, Earthquake chronology, Manisa Fault

    The Holocene Seismic Activity and Slip Rates of the Priene-Sazlı

    The destructive earthquakes in the Eastern Mediterranean and Middle East region were

    historically and instrumentally recorded since 464 B.C., which respectively reveal 78

    earthquakes before and 79 after 1900. However, long-term earthquake modelling

    requires paleoearthquakes information beyond the historical data. Built mainly in

    carbonate rocks, three major graben systems of the Gediz, the Küçük Menderes and

    the Büyük Menderes in the western Anatolia, are bordered by large scale normal faults

    displaying seismic activity and thus surface faulting during the Pleistocene-Holocene.

    With the aim of understanding of how and when these graben systems were active

    prior the historical archives, as a first step, we sampled the Priene-Sazli Fault on the

    westernmost part of the Büyük Menderes graben for fault scarp dating. To measure 36Cl concentration and chemical composition of individual but continuous samples, 117

    slabs of limestone were collected along the fault. Analyzing the measured 36Cl

    concentrations with a new Matlab code, we modelled three periods of seismic activity

    of the Priene-Sazli fault: (1) ca. 6 kyr with 6 m of vertical slip; (2) ca. 4 kyr with a

    vertical slip of around 2 m; and (3) ca. 2 kyr with a vertical component of

    displacement of around 2 m. We estimate slip rates of approximately 2,1 and 1 mm/yr

    for these periods respectively. Based on these, we infer that the Büyük Menderes

    graben underwent periods of enhanced seismic activity during the Holocene, with

    decreasing amplitude through the time. For the Büyük Menderes graben, 2 mm/yr of

    long-term slip rate is anticipated for the last ca. 6 kyr. Keywords: Büyük Menderes graben, Cosmogenic, 36Cl, Surface exposure dating, Normal fault, Earthquake, Seismicity, Turkey, Eastern Mediterrenean

    Seafloor Mapping of the Volcanic Field Offshore NW Methana

    Peninsula, Saronikos Gulf, Greece Foutrakis Panagiotis1, George Anastasakis1

    1School of Geology & Geoenvironment, University of Athens, Panepistimiopolis, Athens, Greece

    The western end of the South Aegean Arc hosts several volcanic centers of which the

    Methana peninsula has the longest recorded history, with continuous volcanic products

    from the Late Pliocene to recent times. The seafloor of the margin around the Methana

    peninsula has been mapped and here we report on the NW margin that displays

    intense Upper Quaternary volcanic activity. Our research is based on post 2010

    surveys that include detailed multibeam bathymetry and side scan sea floor mapping,

    high to medium resolution 2D chirp and sparker profiles and gravity coring.

    Onshore, previous work shows that dacite domes and small andesitic stratovolcanoes

    formed throughout the mid and late Quaternary. The seafloor off the NW quarter of

    the Methana peninsula displays unequivocal evidence of active volcanic processes that

    include dome piercing, older elevated structures with dome morphology, flows

    associated with doming, more widespread flows from land, pyroclastic flows and

    probable small scale caldera collapse. The dome piercing chronology can be related to

    the stratigraphy of the surrounding sediments, with three distinct major flow events

    interbedded within the well stratified marine sediments. Seismic stratigraphy and

    sedimentation rates deduced from cores in the region suggest that these flow occurred

    over the last 300 ka. The last flow is linked to the 230 BC eruption. The oldest flow

    travelled the farthest to the west, 8 km from the NW coast of Methana, reaching the

    western edge of the >420 m deep Epidavros Basin. Upper Quaternary sediments

    recovered in cores record only one volcaniclastic layer, at around 11 ka.

    The Upper Quaternary seafloor volcanic activity on the NW Methana margin extends

    over an area of >25 km2. Keywords: Volcanic activity, Quaternary, seafloor, Methana, Saronikos Gulf, Greece

    A diffuse igneous activity developed in SE Turkey after the Arabia collision against

    Anatolia. In East Anatolia, around the Elazig, Pertek, Tunceli, Mazgirt and Karakoçan

    areas, a wide and chemically variable volcanic activity took place during the late

    Tertiary.

    Forty-three samples collected from this area show a wide range of petrographic and

    geochemical characters, ranging in composition from basalt/trachybasalt to

    andesite/dacite. Three main groups of rocks have been distinguished. The first group

    (Elazig-Karakoçan) exhibits high TiO2 (3.1-1.7), low La/Nb ratios (1.9-0.7), low Sr

    isotopic ratios (87Sr/86Sr = 0.7033-0.7038) pointing out for mantle sources with small

    or any subduction-related component. The second group (Tunceli-Bulgurçuk) has

    lower TiO2 contents (1.7-1.4), higher La/Nb (2.3-1.3) and 87Sr/86Sr (0.7040-0.7049)

    than the first group. The third group (Pertek-Mazgirt). have low TiO2 (1.7-0.4), high

    La/Nb (3.5-2.3) and strongly radiogenic 87Sr/86Sr (0.7055-0.7068). These features,

    including positive Pb and K anomalies as well as LILE and Sr enrichment in primitive

    mantle-normalized diagrams, are compatible with derivation from a subduction-related

    mantle source.

    Negative correlations of TiO2 with 87Sr/86Sr and 207Pb/204Pb ratios and positive

    correlations among 87Sr/86Sr, Th/Ta and La/Nb speak for the existence of two end-

    members in the mantle sources. The presence of spatially and temporally overlapping

    volcanic rocks with very different mineralogical, chemical and isotopic compositions is

    a further evidence of the perils in inferring paleotectonic environments on the basis of

    geochemical constraints only. Keywords: Eastern Anatolia, Neogene Volcanism, Petrology, Isotope Geochemistry

    An N-NW fault juxtaposes Mesta Volcanic Complex (MVC) and its feeding magma

    chamber, the Central Pirin batholith (CPB), providing an excellent opportunity for

    direct comparison. To clarify the genetic relationships and magmatic processes for the

    two rock suites, we studied their age, mineral and geochemical composition, Sr-Nd-Hf

    whole rock and Hf zircon isotopic compositions. The 34-32.5 Ma MVC and CPB have

    similar whole-rock compositions (SiO2 64 - 72.5 wt%) except one high-SiO2 rhyolite

    with 76.4 wt% SiO2. They also have similar mineral phases, which include plagioclase,

    biotite and K-feldspar in all rock types and quartz as phenocryst for the rhyolites and

    as a rock forming mineral in the plutons. The granites and rhyolites have similar 6-7

    cm K-feldspar megacrysts, whereas amphibole is present only in the trachydacites and

    granodiorites. Similar isotopic ratios (high 87Sr/86Sr 0.71080-0.71521, low εNd -6.1 to

    -8.1 and εHf -3.8 to -7.5) of the volcanic and plutonic rocks are consistent with an

    origin by melting of crustal material. This is supported by the ~35% of xeno- and

    inherited zircons from the local metamorphic basement with εHf values of -2 to -9.5.

    However, findings of high-Mg (# 85-90) clino- and orthopyroxene and mafic enclaves

    in the youngest trachydacite and granodiorite indicate mixing with mafic and

    intermediate magmas. In addition, in situ analyses of Hf isotopes of zircons reveal

    large variations in 176Hf/177Hf (> 9 εHf units) between zircons in a single rock with

    most radiogenic values (εHf +2.7) within the mantle range. We suggest that the felsic

    MVC and CPB rocks formed as the result of high degree of assimilation of the thick (~

    50 km) continental crust into primitive mantle-derived magma. Keywords: Mesta Volcanic Complex, Central Pirin Batholith, Bulgaria, Sr-Nd-Hf isotopes,

    Tracing Volcaniclastic Upper Quaternary Input on the Seafloor of

    West Kos Basin Emmanouil Markakis1, George Anastasakis1, David J.W. Piper2

    The West Kos Basin, with a maximum depth of 518 m, is enclosed to the north by the

    SW half of Kos and bounded to the south by the Upper Quaternary volcanic islands of

    Pyrgousa, Pachia, Nisyros and Yali. Both land and marine geologists have previously

    suggested that the seafloor of this region hosted the collapsed calderas of the major

    Kos Plateau Tuff (KPT) eruption.

    Post 2010 marine surveys by Athens University included multibeam bathymetry, a

    limited number of high resolution chirp profiles and a grid of high to medium

    resolution sparker and air gun profiles. Additionally 17 cores supplemented by 9 older

    gravity cores provide ground truthing.

    In the deep basin, the upper 15–40 m of stratified sediments includes several minor

    mass-flow deposits coming from both the north and south margins of the basin. This

    overlies a prominent acoustically incoherent body apparently piled against the SW Kos

    slope apron, over 150 msec thick, and rapidly thinning towards Pyrgousa and

    eastwards. This massive unit overlies up to 200 msec thick well stratified sediment,

    interrupted by thin mass-flow deposits. Below the stratified sediments is a second

    acoustically incoherent bed, in places with an erosive base, with a maximum thickness

    of 250 msec against the Pyrgousa slope apron.

    Sedimentation rates for the deeper parts of the basin are greater than 10–25 cm/ka

    for the Holocene and > 21cm/ka in the 10–20 ka time intervals. Taking into account

    sedimentation rates and seismic stratigraphic considerations, we interpret the lower

    incoherent bed as the KPT and relate the upper acoustically amorphous body to a

    younger eruption on either Yali or Nisyros not excluding the possibility of a massive

    debrisavalanche from the southern Kos. Keywords: Aegean Sea, Volcanic Arc, West kos Basin, Volkaniclastic, Kos Plateau tuff

    Nisyros is an active volcano of Kos-Nisyros-Yalı volcanic system considering recent

    hydrothermal explosions, shallow earthquakes and high-enthalpy geothermal system.

    While there is an increasing interest in the volcanological and petrological evolution of

    the Nisyros volcano, stratigraphy, distribution, and age of the tephrahave still been

    controversial. For instance,as for the distribution of the proximal Nisyros tephra,

    limited deposition is argued, owing to collapse of the caldera. As for the distal tephra,

    deposition mainly in marine environment was proposed. However, there are afew

    studies suggesting that Nisyros tephra covered larger distances than expected (300

    km to the north) and possible Kyra subunits deposited in the surrounding islands

    (Pachia, Chalki and Tilos) and Turkish mainland (Datça Peninsula). Therefore,

    identification and verification of inland deposited tephra for this active volcano

    becomes more important.

    In this study we aim to present new findings about the Nisyros pumice fall units

    (possibly Kyra sub-unit) deposited on Kos Plateau Tuff units in several locations of

    Datça Peninsula, and discuss the distribution and field characteristics with regard to

    previous and ongoing studies in the region. This research is supported by TUBITAK,

    Western Anatolia versus Eastern Anatolia Magmatic - Tectonic

    and Geodynamic Comparing and Their Geothermal Results M.Y. Savaşçın1, M. Tokçaer2, Ö. Karaoğlu 3

    During the Cenozoic Turkey has been interested by a widespread igneous activity with

    products characterized by very variable chemical and mineralogical compositions. In

    some of these igneous areas high level high enthalpy geothermal fields have been

    identified. The western and eastern sectors of Anatolia experienced different tectonic

    evolutions followed by the Arabia-Asia collision.

    The extensional regime in western Anatolia has been associated with lithospheric and

    crustal thinning and high heat flows. The heat source for the western Anatolia

    geothermal systems is very shallow (high geothermal gradient). On the other hand,

    the tectonic regime of eastern Anatolia is dominated by the strike-slip tectonics,

    possible oceanic slab delamination gave rise to passive asthenospheric upwelling in

    the last 10 Ma, likely the source region of the young sodic mildly alkaline rocks with a

    general OIB-like geochemical characteristic. The geothermal systems active in eastern

    Anatolia should be associated to the presence of young plutonic bodies and the

    passive upwelling of hot sub-lithospheric mantle. Heat flow measuring in several km

    deeps, or mantle originated noble gases support also this hypothesis.

    In western Anatolia (e.g., the Menderes core complex) plutonic bodies are covered

    and thermally insulated by thick young sedimentary infillings (up to 2 km), whilst

    similar (but generally younger) plutonic bodies in the eastern Anatolia reach the

    surface or are overlaid by thinner sedimentary cover, causing major geothermal heat

    dispersion. The relatively large distance between the local hydrographic network and

    the shallow hotspots favoring the development of hot geothermal sites. On the other

    hand, the absence of true extensional tectonic in the eastern Anatolia force both the

    cold (rivers) and the hot waters (geothermal fluids) to mix, strongly reducing the

    enthalpy. Keywords: Geodynamic, Magma, Geothermal

    The Anatolide-Tauride Terrane consists of widespread Paleozoic (Cambrian to Permian)

    units in which mafic volcanic rocks are rarely found. These mafic lithologies have been

    described in two areas; Eastern Taurides (SW of Tufanbeyli and Yahyali) and Central

    Taurides (Northern Konya). The ideas on the evolution of these volcanic rocks,

    however, are controversial, and the available data mainly come from the volcanics of

    the Central Taurides (Konya Region).

    Based on our preliminary work, mafic volcanic rocks were identified in the Eastern

    Taurides (Develi-Kayseri). These basaltic lithologies are observed between the Late

    Devonian (Famennian) limestones and Early Carboniferous (Tournaisian) sandstones.

    The basalts display affinites to back arc basin (BAB) lavas, with trace element patterns

    showing relative enrichment in large ion lithophile-elements (LILE) relative to high

    field strength element (HFSE). The abundance of the HFSE in the lavas appears to be

    normal-MORB (NMORB)-like and they exhibit flat REE profile.

    The recently discovered mafic volcanic rocks in the Eastern Taurides geochemically

    resemble to the meta-diabase dykes in the Konya and Yahyali regions, which were

    interpreted to be linked to a subduction-related event (Göncüoğlu et al.,2007;

    Robertson and Ustaömer, 2009). If supported by additional data, this new finding will

    place further constraints on the mid-Paleozoic evolution of the Taurides. Keywords: Eastern Taurides, Volcanism, Mid-Late Paleozoic, BAB, Develi-Kayseri

    Evidence of rift-spreading-closure of S Neotethys is provided by continental

    margin/oceanic units emplaced onto the Arabian foreland (Adiyaman area). Two main

    volcanic and/or sedimentary units are present. First, the Koçali Complex is a folded,

    imbricated succession that includes basaltic lavas, volcaniclastics, pelagic carbonates,

    diagenetic chert, radiolarite and manganiferous deposits, of Mid(?)-Late Triassic to

    Cretaceous age. The, structurally lower, Karadut Complex is a broken formation of

    deep-sediments, including pelagic and redeposited carbonates, pelagic carbonate and

    radiolarite, of (at least) Early Jurassic to Late Cretaceous age. Ophiolitic rocks are

    imbricated with the Koçali Complex. New data are provided for sedimentology,

    biochronology (Radiolaria and planktic foraminifera), igneous geochemistry and

    structure. The basaltic rocks of the Koçali Complex are of ocean-island basalt and

    enriched mid-ocean ridge type. The OIBs and E-MORBs are interbedded, with OIB

    predominating stratigraphically upwards. The basalts formed by interaction of deeply

    sourced upper mantle melts (OIB) and more shallowly derived melts (E-MORB),

    probably within the outer part of a continent-ocean transition zone. Continental break-

    up took place during Late Triassic (Carnian-Norian)-Early Jurassic). Overlying Mid-

    Jurassic-Early Cretaceous radiolarian sediments accumulated in an abyssal plain

    setting below the carbonate compensation depth. The contrasting Karadut Complex

    reflects the accumulation of calcareous gravity flows in a relatively proximal slope to

    base-of-slope marginal setting. Deposition was terminated by emplacement onto the

    Arabian platform by earliest Maastrichtian time. Keywords: SE Turkey, Continental margin, Rifting, Radiolarites, Sediments

    How to Accommodate Field-Based Evidence for five or more

    Mesozoic Subduction Zones in Anatolia within a ~1500 km-Wide Eurasia-Arabia Gap? A.H.F. Robertson1, O. Parlak2, T. Ustaömer3

    How can we rationalise field-based geological evidence for five or more subduction

    zones with the palaeomagnetic evidence of a ~1500 km gap between Eurasia and

    Arabia? Four or five potentially interlinked oceanic strands are commonly inferred for

    the central-eastern Anatolia region based on field geological evidence. from N to S: 1.

    Izmir-Ankara Ocean (IAESZ) (major ocean); 2. Inner Tauride Ocean (ITO) (regional-

    scale ocean); 3. Berit Ocean (BO) (small; between microcontinents); 4. S Neotethys

    (SNT) (major ocean). Within the IESZ, at least two subduction zones are documented:

    i) Cretaceous continental margin subduction zone (i.e. E Pontide arc) and ii) L.

    Jurassic-U. Cretaceous intra-oceanic subduction zone (i.e. Jurassic SSZ ophiolites &

    related arc magmatism). Associated with the ITO, there is evidence of Late Cretaceous

    SSZ-ophiolite genesis/arc magmatism and Late Cretaceous-Palaeocene HP/LT

    metamorphism. Ocean 3 (BO) is evidenced by Late Cretaceous SSZ-type ophiolite

    genesis, Late Cretaceous & Eocene continental margin arc magmatism and Late

    Cretaceous HP/LT metamorphism (e.g. SSZ-Berit ophiolite; Malatya-Keban platform

    arc; N. Bitlis blueschists). The SNT is evidenced by Late Cretaceous SSZ ophiolite

    genesis (e.g. Troodos; Hatay), arc magmatism (Kyrenia, N Cyprus) and accretion

    (Koçali Complex, SE Turkey). Three of the subduction zones seem inescapable (IESZ x

    2 + SNT). Elimination of the remaining two (ITO, BO) would require complex

    structural emplacement and/or terrane displacement which are difficult to reconcile

    with the known field relations and the timing of events. Acceptance of numerous

    subduction zones implies the existence of multiple SSZ-spreading episodes between a

    collage of microcontinents. Keywords: Anatolia, Subduction, Microcontinents, Ophiolite, Suture zones
