Mineralogy, texture and geochemistry investigation in metaplutonic - metavolcanic rocks surrounding Elazig

This study, in the Eastern Taurus Mountains Elazig and its surroundings include plutonic and volcanic units. There are metamagmatic rock types that have undergone metamorphism in different facies in the study area. It has developed different mineral paragenesis in different rock types from basic composition to acidic composition. Metagabbro, metabasalt type rocks was formed by lowgrade metamorphism of gabbro, diabase and mineral paragenesis of Prehnite-Pumpelliyit facies developed.Again, meta-agglomerate and metaandesite rocks were formed under greenschist facies metamorphism conditions by metamorphism of andesitic volcanics and volcanoclastics.In the locations determined as the working area There are Guleman ophiolite, Elazig magmatites, Karabakir formation, Maden complex and Pütürge metamorphite. Although these rocks have undergone metamorphism, they have partially preserved their properties. The textural features of metamorphic rocks show which type of rock. They are derived from Metamorphic rocks take the meta-prefix whose origin rock can be determined by their textural and structural features and partially mineralogical compositions. Different physical conditions can be determined by determining the geochemistry and mineral paragenesis of the above-mentioned igneous rocks with different formation depths. Aim of this thesis, it will be tried to determine the texture, mineral, geochemistry, paragenesis properties and metamorphism ages of metaplutonic and metavolcanic rocks by using mutually supportive analysis methods.
