In two thrust sheets, Sugozu and GundogmuAY nappes, HP metamorphism under eclogite (550-567 A degrees C/14-18 kbar) and blueschist facies (435-480 A degrees C/11-13 kbar) conditions have been recognized, respectively. Whereas the rest of the Massif underwent MP metamorphism under greenschist to amphibolite facies (525-555 A degrees C/6.5-7.5 kbar) conditions. Eclogite facies metamorphism in Sugozu nappe, which consists of homogeneous garnet-glaucophane-phengite schists with eclogite lenses is dated at 84.8 +/- A 0.8, 84.7 +/- A 1.5 and 82 +/- A 3 Ma (Santonian-Campanian) by Ar-40/Ar-39 phengite, U/Pb zircon and rutile dating methods, respectively. Similarly, phengites in GundogmuAY nappe representing an accretionary complex yield 82-80 Ma (Campanian) ages for blueschist facies metamorphism. During the exhumation, the retrograde overprint of the HP units under greenschist-amphibolite facies conditions and tectonic juxtaposition with the Barrovian units occurred during Campanian (75-78 Ma). Petrological and geochronological data clearly indicate a similar Late Cretaceous tectonometamorphic evolution for both Alanya (84-75 Ma) and Bitlis (84-72 Ma) Massifs. They form part of a single continental sliver (Alanya-Bitlis microcontinent), which was rifted from the southern part of the Anatolide-Tauride platform. The P-T-t coherence between two Massifs suggests that both Massifs have been derived from the closure of the same ocean (Alanya-Bitlis Ocean) located to the south of the Anatolide-Tauride block by a northward subduction. The boundary separating the autochthonous Tauride platform to the north from both the Alanya and Bitlis Massifs to the south represents a suture zone, the Pamphylian-Alanya-Bitlis suture.}, language = {en} } @article{OberhaensliPartzschCandanetal.2000, author = {Oberh{\"a}nsli, Roland and Partzsch, Julius and Candan, O. and Cetinkaplan, Mete}, title = {First occurrence of Fe-Mg-carpholite documenting a high pressure metamorphism in the metasediments of the Lycian nappes, SW Turkey}, year = {2000}, language = {en} } @article{CandanCetinkaplanOberhaenslietal.2005, author = {Candan, O. and Cetinkaplan, Mete and Oberh{\"a}nsli, Roland and Rimmele, Gaetan and Akal, Cemal B.}, title = {Alpine high-P/low-T metamorphism of the Afyon Zone and implications for the metamorphic evolution of Western Anatolia, Turkey}, issn = {0024-4937}, year = {2005}, abstract = {Carpholite+chloritoid+pyrophyllite association occurs widely in the Triassic metaclastic rocks of the Afyon Zone in west-central Turkey. Fe-Mg-carpholite is associated with rare aragonite pseudomorphs and glaucophane in marbles and metabasites, respectively. The Afyon Zone consists stratigraphically of a Pan-African basement and an overlying Mesozoic cover sequence. The Pan-African basement, which shows Barrovian-type amphibolite-facies metamorphism, comprises garnet-mica schists, intruded by sodic amphibole-bearing metagabbros and leucocratic metagranites. It is unconformably overlain by a continuous metasedimentary sequence extending from Triassic to early Palaeocene. This cover sequence begins with metaconglomerates, which pass upwards into phyllites. Fe-Mg-carpholite occurs within this metaclastic sequence as rosette-like crystals in metapelites and fibres in quartz segregations. The metaclastic rocks are succeeded by metamorphosed platform carbonates, grading into Latest Mesozoic metamorphosed pelagic limestones, which in turn progress up to a Late Mesozoic-Early Tertiary olistostrome. This sequence is tectonically overlain by the blueschists of the Tavsanh Zone. Fe-Mg-carpholite-bearing assemblages imply temperatures of about 350 degrees C and minimum pressures of 6-9 kbar, corresponding to burial depths of about 30 km for the Mesozoic passive continental margin sediments and the underlying Pan-African supracrustal metasediments and metaintrusives. The metamorphic rocks of the Afyon Zone are unconformably overlain by Upper Palaeocene-Lower Eocene sedimentary rocks, indicating a Paleocene age for the regional HP/LT metamorphism. This implies continuous younging of HP/LT metamorphism in the Anatolides related to northward subduction of the Anatolide-Tauride platform beneath the Sakarya Zone. From north to south this involved the Tavsanh Zone (Campanian, 80 +/- 5 Ma), the Afyon Zone (Palaeocene?), the Menderes Massif (Middle Eocene) and the Lycian Nappes (Late Cretaceous-Eocene?), all of which were probably derived from the frontal part of the Anatolide-Tauride platform.
