Abstract

The Tavsanli Zone in western and south-central Turkey constitutes one of the largest and best preserved high-pressure metamorphic belts in the world. Blueschists and scarce lawsonite-eclogites crop out in an east-west-rending zone, 50-60 km wide and about 250 km long, and are tectonically overlain by an oceanic accretionary complex and large ophiolite slabs. Undeformed Early to Middle Eocene granodiorites (ca. 50 Ma 40Ar/39Ar isochron ages), intrude the blueschists and the overlying ophiolite. The blueschists of the Tavsanli Zone represent the subducted north-facing passive continental margin of the Anatolide- Tauride block. They were partly exposed by, or were at high crustal levels during the latest Cretaceous, prior to the Paleocene continent-continent collision. The blueschists of the Tavsanli Zone comprise a variety of metasedimentary and metamagmatic lithologies. The metasedimentary sequence, originally deposited on continental crust, comprise a schist-marble series of Mesozoic age with peak pressure and temperatures of ~24 kbar and 430-500°C, respectively, and with Late Cretaceous (ca. 80 Ma) metamorphic ages. The oceanic lithologies are made up mainly of metabasites with metacherts, phyllites, which have undergone metamorphism from incipient blueschist facies to lawsonite-eclogite facies. The guide, prepared for a three-day field trip, provides information on the tectonic setting, tectonostratigraphy, petrology, and geological evolution of the Tavsanli Zone blueschists and lawsonite-eclogites followed by detailed description of the field stops. It also includes data on the Triassic blueschists and eclogites from north of the Tavsanli Zone.
土耳其西北部蓝片岩、榴辉岩、蛇绿岩和缝合带:综述和野外考察指南
土耳其西部和中南部的塔夫桑里带是世界上最大、保存最完好的高压变质带之一。蓝片岩和稀少的褐榴辉岩生长在一个东西走向的地带,宽50-60公里,长约250公里,在构造上被一个海洋增生杂岩和大型蛇绿岩板块覆盖。未变形的早至中始新世花岗闪长岩(约50 Ma 40Ar/39Ar等时)侵入蓝片岩及其上覆蛇绿岩。塔夫三里带的蓝片岩代表了阿纳托利德—牛头利德地块的俯冲北向被动大陆边缘。在古新世大陆与大陆碰撞之前的白垩纪晚期,它们部分暴露于或处于较高的地壳水平。塔夫三里蓝片岩由多种变质沉积和变质岩浆岩性组成。变质沉积层序由中生代片岩-大理岩系列组成,其峰值压力和温度分别为~24 kbar和430 ~ 500℃,为晚白垩世(约80 Ma)变质期。海洋岩性主要由变质岩和变质岩、千粒岩组成,经历了由早期蓝片岩相到长辉榴辉岩相的变质作用。该指南为为期三天的实地考察准备,提供了有关塔夫三里地区蓝片岩和长榴辉岩的构造背景、构造地层学、岩石学和地质演化的信息,并详细描述了实地考察的站点。它还包括来自塔夫三里带北部的三叠纪蓝片岩和榴辉岩的数据。

期刊介绍: Since 1976, Ofioliti provides an international forum for original contributions and reviews in the field of the geodynamics, petrology, geochemistry, biostratigraphy, stratigraphy, tectonics and paleogeography applied to ophiolitic terrains and modern oceanic lithosphere, including their sedimentary cover. Studies of topics such as geodynamics of the mantle, the evolution of orogens including ophiolites and paleoceanography are also welcome
