In this study, the geology, mineralogy, petrography, geochemistry, wall-rock alteration, ore-wall-rock relations, micro structural and textural relations in the copper-pyrite mineralization in Kızmehmet site (Ispendere-Malatya) and its vicinity were investigated. Ispendere Ophiolite (Jurassic-Lower Cretaceous), Yüksekova complex (Upper Cretaceous) and Kırkgeçit formation (Middle Eocene) crop out in the study area, which is located in Malatya-Elazığ region of the Eastern Taurus orogenic belt. Yüksekova complex is formed by Kuluşağı magmatites, Kapıkaya volcanics, Şişman magmatites and Harabe hill magmatites. Harabe hill magmatites cut all of the mentioned rocks in the complex and caused to form all of alteration types and different mineralizations in …
