In the vicinity of the Kocadal mineralization, Gümüşhane granite, lithologies Mineralization, of the Hamurkesen, Berdiga, and Mescitli formations, dacite porphyry and andesite porphyry are present with Conglomerate- abundant alluvium. Based on geological, mineralogical, and geochemical features, three mineralization styles Sandstone, Quartz Veins. have been recognized at the Kocadal area: (i) Mineralizations around Batarya tepe include (ia) Zn mineralization within the conglomerates and sandstones of the Hamurkesen formation and (ib) Zn-Pb-Ag-(Au) mineralization associated with dacite prophyry, (ii) Au mineralization, which occurs to the southwestern of Batarya tepe, and (iii) Cu mineralizations related to quartz veins and veinlets at Gözelerin Dere. Mineralized gravels within the conglomerates contains mainly sphalerite and pyrite, whereas hydrothermal mineralizations associated with porphyritic dacite comprise pyrite and sphalerite, with minor galena, chalcopyrite, pyrrhotite, arsenopyrite, marcasite, fahlerz, pyrargyrite, and proustite. Alteration patterns of hydrothermal mineralization in the field, from older to younger, are classified as: (i) tremolite-actinolite±garnet, (ii) quartz-sericite-chlorite, and (iii) carbonate- quartz. Mineralized gravels within the conglomerates contains mainly sphalerite and pyrite, whereas pyrite, chalcopyrite, and galena are common in quartz veins at Gözelerin Dere.

Together with the detailed petrographic studies, nine samples from different areas and stages have been dated by K/Ar method, resulting in that the oldest and the youngest lava is of 74.3 ± 1.0 million years old (Upper Cretaceous) and 8.9±0.2 years old (Upper Miocene), respectively. Of these, belonging to the first four stages are mostly calcalkaline (some of the Eocene aged samples are tholeiitic) and are of basalt, basaltic andesite, trachyandesite, andesite, dacite, rhyolite type, whereas that of belonging to the fifth stage are alkaline and of basanite, basalt and trachybasalt types. The pyroclastics of various size and the tuffs of the first four volcanism stages crop out in a wide area. The Upper Cretaceous volcanics have completely formed beneath the sea. On the other hand, some of Eocene volcanics have formed beneath the sea which are seen intercalated with sediments while the others have formed on land. The lavas of Oligocene, Lower-Middle Miocene and Upper Miocene age have formed on land and are observed to be intercalated with lacustrine sediments, in places.

  • A Partial Glossary of Spanish Geological Terms Exclusive of Most Cognates
    U.S. DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR U.S. GEOLOGICAL SURVEY A Partial Glossary of Spanish Geological Terms Exclusive of Most Cognates by Keith R. Long Open-File Report 91-0579 This report is preliminary and has not been reviewed for conformity with U.S. Geological Survey editorial standards or with the North American Stratigraphic Code. Any use of trade, firm, or product names is for descriptive purposes only and does not imply endorsement by the U.S. Government. 1991 Preface In recent years, almost all countries in Latin America have adopted democratic political systems and liberal economic policies. The resulting favorable investment climate has spurred a new wave of North American investment in Latin American mineral resources and has improved cooperation between geoscience organizations on both continents. The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) has responded to the new situation through cooperative mineral resource investigations with a number of countries in Latin America. These activities are now being coordinated by the USGS's Center for Inter-American Mineral Resource Investigations (CIMRI), recently established in Tucson, Arizona. In the course of CIMRI's work, we have found a need for a compilation of Spanish geological and mining terminology that goes beyond the few Spanish-English geological dictionaries available. Even geologists who are fluent in Spanish often encounter local terminology oijerga that is unfamiliar. These terms, which have grown out of five centuries of mining tradition in Latin America, and frequently draw on native languages, usually cannot be found in standard dictionaries. There are, of course, many geological terms which can be recognized even by geologists who speak little or no Spanish.

The peninsula is dominated by a regional basement high exposing Gondwanan ('Australian') Palaeozoic metasediments intruded by Palaeozoic and Mesozoic granitoids. Here, we present the first comprehensive study of these granitoids, including field and petrographic descriptions, bulk rock geochemistry, and U-Pb zircon age data. We further revise and update previous subdivisions of granitoids in the area. Most granitoids were emplaced as small to medium-scale intrusions during two episodes in the Devonian-Carboniferous and the Late Permian- Triassic, separated by a period of apparent magmatic quiescence.

E-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT: Dark aeolian deposits on Mars are thought to consist of volcanic materials due to their mineral assemblages, which are common to basalts. However, the sediment source is still debated. Basaltic dunes on Earth are promising analogs for providing further insights into the assumed basaltic sand dunes on Mars. In our study we characterize basaltic dunes from the Ka’u Desert in Hawaii using optical microscopes, electron microprobe, and spectral analyses. We compare the spectra of terrestrial and Martian dune sands to determine possible origins of the Martian dark sediments. Our results show that the terrestrial sands consist primarily of medium to coarse sand-sized volcanic glass and rock fragments as well as olivine, pyroxene, and plagioclase minerals. Grain shapes range from angular to subrounded.

Elements showing a not yet reported anomalous enrichment include P (up to 20.2 wt.% P2O5; equivalent to 0.60 apfu, formula calculated on the basis of 4 oxygen atoms), Bi (up to 9.0 wt.% Bi2O3; 0.086 apfu), Nb (up to 6.7 wt.% Nb2O5, 0.12 apfu), Sc (up to 3.45 wt.% Sc2O3; 0.10 apfu), U (up to 14.8 wt.% UO2; 0.12 apfu) and F (up to 3.81 wt.% F; 0.42 apfu). Strong enrichment of P preferentially involved the berlinite-type substitution (2 Si4+ ZP5+ +Al3+) implying that significant Al may enter the Si position in zircon. Incorporation of other exotic elements is primarily governed by the xenotime (Si4+ +Zr4+ ZP5+ +Y3+), pretulite (Sc3+ +P5+ ZZr4+ +Si4+), brabantite-type (Ca2+ +(U, Th)4+ +2P5+ Z2Zr4+ +2Si4+), and ximengite-type (Bi3+ +P5+ ZZr4+ +Si4+) substitution reactions.
