Abstract (EN)
Geodynamicevolution of thebasinanditsenvirons, locatedbetween Batman and Diyarbakır provincesandhousingtheTigrisRiver, andillumination of theseismicity of Diyarbakır provincewereaimed. As a result of thegeology of thestudyarea, 11 differentformationsweremappedexceptpre-Cretaceousunits. Theoldest of theseformations is theLowerEocene Gercüş formation, one of the Midyat Groupformations, andtheLowerEocene-LowerOligocene Hoya Formation, whichconsists of massivelimestones. TheLateEocene-OligoceneGermicformation, which is unconformablewith Hoya andconsists of anhydrite, shale, gypsum, dolomite andsandy-spindle dolomite, passesthrough. OverlyingtheGermicformationunconformably is theAquitanian-Burdigalian (LowerMiocene) EuphratesFormationandthickMiocene-LowerPliocene-agedPlioceneagedLowerMiocene-LowerPlioceneformations.
