dc.description.abstract | In this study, chlorite is used to investigate the diagenetic-metamorphic evolution and accurate geological history of the different units belonging to the Karakaya complex, Turkey. Primary and secondary chlorite minerals in the very low-grade metamorphic rocks display interference colors of blue and brown and an appearance of optical isotropy. Chlorites are present in the matrix, pores, and/or rocks units as platy/flaky and partly radial forms. X-ray diffraction (XRD) data indicate that Mg-Fe chlorites with entirely IIb polytype (trioctahedral) exhibit a variety of compositions, such as brunsvigite-diabantite-chamosite. The major element contents and structural formulas of chlorite also suggest these were derived from both felsic and metabasic source rocks. Trace and rare earth element (REE) concentrations of chlorites increase with increasing grade of metamorphism, and these geochemical changes can be related to the tectonic structures, formational mechanics, and environments present during their generation. | en_US |

dc.description.sponsorship | The authors extend their thanks for their help to Cumhuriyet University Directorate of Scientific Research Projects Commission (Project No: M 301) that gave financial support for the realization of this study, the deceased Mehmet DURU (General Directorate of Mineral Research and Exploration) and Ahmet GOKCE (Cumhuriyet University) who ensured the introduction of the units in NW Anatolia and the central NE Anatolia in the field respectively, Cumhuriyet University Department of Geology Engineering laboratory workers in XRD works and the preparation of thin sections and to TPAO workers for SEM examinations. In addition, M. Cemal GONCUOGLU has contributed to the shaping of the article with his suggestions and criticisms on the understanding of the geological evolution of the Karakaya Complex. We are also grateful to the academic editor and anonymous referees for their constructive comments leading to important improvements in the manuscript. | en_US |
