Bulletin of the Mineral Research and Exploration

The Beypazarı Blind Thrust Zone, which is surrounded by the North Anatolian, the Eskişehir, and the Kırıkkale-Erbaa fault zones, is a recently defined neotectonic structure developed in the NW central Anatolia together with the Eldivan-Elmadağ and the Abdüsselam Pinched Crustal Wedges. In this study, the internal structure of the Beypazarı Blind Thrust Zone has been examined in detail around Çayırhan region. It has been defined that it consists of the Karaköy, Sekli, Nalçabayırı, Uzunbayır blind thrusts, Davutoğlan Back Thrust, and Beypazarı Blind Thrust I-II from North to south, respectively with help of the fault-propagation folds in the study area.
