Hydrocarbon Potential Of The Kahramanmaraş And Elbi̇stan Areas, Yüksel Önem
Hydrocarbon Potential Of The Kahramanmaraş And Elbi̇stan Areas, Yüksel Önem
Bulletin of the Mineral Research and Exploration
The Taurus mountains, which developed in the conjoining zone of the Anatolian and Arabian Plates, underwent a disruption between Bolkar mountain and Engizek mountain. This can be explained by the fact that the area was traversed and transformed by two major strike-sup faults situated at Mersin-east Bolkar mountain-Kayseri in the west and Antakya (Hatay)-Elazığ-Bingöl in the east, In fact, the east-west oriented 200 km. wide area, covering the Gulf of İskenderun and the northern pan of Adana, was compressed and deflected as far as the north of Sarız and the Arabian Plate was dislocated prior to the faulting and moved …
Presence Of Nummulites Fabianii (Prever) Group (Nummuli̇tes Ex Gr. Fabi̇ani̇i̇) And Associated Foraminifers In The Elaziğ Region, Niyazi Avşar
Bulletin of the Mineral Research and Exploration
The presence of Nummulites ex gr. fabianii has been indicated in the Eocene sediments, and the stratigraphy of the region is briefly given. The rock units of Paleozoic, Mesozoic and Cenozoic ages crop out in the region. The Paleozoic sequence is composed of metamorphic rocks. This unit is tectonically underlain by the Mesozoic sequence formed of magmatic rocks. The Paleozoic and Mesozoic rocks arc unconformably overlain by the sandstone and algal limestones of the Upper Lutetian age. Algal limestone contains genera of the Foraminifcra such as Nummulites perforatus (Montfort). Assilina spira (de Roissy), Alveolina fusiformis Sowerby, Alveolina elongata d'Orbigny, Fabiania …
