The pelitic-mafic type mineralization occurs within the low-grade greenschist facies metamorphic rocks in the Central Pontides Orogenic Belt. It is associated with volcaniclastic, clastic detrital sedimentary, and deep marine sedimentary rocks and cross-cutting submarine mafic dikes and/or sills. This study reports the statistical evaluation of stream sediment and soil geochemistry surveys, providing a well-documented example of preliminary surficial geochemical studies prior to the discovery of the Karaburun mineralization. Statistical analysis of 166 stream sediment samples shows that copper is the most reliable indicator of potential mineralization. Soil sampling was subsequently conducted in the source area of Cu anomalies, and a total of 2306 samples were collected. Both the median-median absolute deviation and the concentration-number (C<img>N) fractal methods yielded reliable results in determining spatial distributions; however, the fractal method provided more robust threshold values. The positive moderate to strong correlations between As–Pb–Zn and Cu–Zn–Bi indicate that these elements can be used to determine potential areas exhibiting anomalies. The distribution of selected elements in the “B” soil horizon is mostly consistent with the gossan formation. Anomalies in Cu, Zn and Co as the best indicator and pathfinder elements suggest weathering processes through pre-existent outcropping mineralized zones. The weathering, oxidation, and possibly erosion in the upper section of pre-existing Pb-enriched mineralization may have caused some Pb enrichments and local anomalies. Bismuth has been highlighted for the first time in soil geochemistry studies in the Central Pontides and could serve as a pathfinder element. However, structural features largely control the spatial distribution of elements and gossan zones; therefore, physical dispersion should also be considered alongside geochemical patterns. Factor analysis was applied to samples from Cu- and Zn-dominant zones identified through anomaly maps. The extracted factors collectively indicate associations with immobile elements during weathering processes, mineralization content, mafic volcanic or volcaniclastic rocks, and absorption onto Fe-oxides or newly formed compounds.

The frequency distribution of upper-level wind direction is such that channeling in the DV direction is favored, which explains the predominance of days with short UV wind. The deep CBL is supported by the presence of a deep weakly stably stratified residual layer with high aerosol content, which is regularly present over the mountain range during the warm season.

From 54 to 45 Ma, the Nansen Basin averaged ∼15 cm/kyr, while the Amundsen Basin exhibited higher but variable rates (15–50 cm/kyr). From 45 to 20 Ma, the Amundsen Basin's rates decreased significantly, dropping to 6–7 cm/kyr (34–45 Ma) and ∼3.5 cm/kyr (20–34 Ma). Meanwhile, the Nansen Basin maintained higher rates (∼12 cm/kyr to ∼5 cm/kyr). After 20 Ma, sedimentation rates diverged further. The Nansen Basin stabilized at ∼5 cm/kyr and was significantly influenced by glaciation and iceberg rafting, while the Amundsen Basin continued to decline to ∼2 cm/kyr, with pelagic sediments dominated by sea-ice and iceberg rafting, and debris flows near the Lomonosov Ridge. The Nansen Basin's higher rates are likely due to its proximity to the Barents and Laptev Sea shelves, while the general declined rates across the basin are related to basin expansion, climate cooling, and reduced tectonic activity. Additionally, the Eurasian Basin's sedimentation is shaped by two phases of Siberian river activity.
