Subduction-Related Eocene Shoshonites From The Cenozoic Urumieh-Dokhrat Magmatic Arc (Qaleh-Khargooshi Area, West Of The Yazd Province, Iran), Ghodrat Torabi Jan 2009

Subduction-Related Eocene Shoshonites From The Cenozoic Urumieh-Dokhrat Magmatic Arc (Qaleh-Khargooshi Area, West Of The Yazd Province, Iran), Ghodrat Torabi

Turkish Journal of Earth Sciences

The fifth phase of Eocene volcanism in the central part of the Urumieh-Dokhtar magmatic arc (UDMA), comprises lavas with shoshonitic characteristics, ranging from trachybasalt to trachydacite. In shoshonites of the Qaleh-Khargooshi area, leucite changes to analcime, analcime to albite, sanidine to albite and anorthoclase, and clinopyroxene to albite. These reactions, together with other field, petrographic and geochemical features, are evidence of an original absarokitic magma which was changing to generate the different rock units. The parental magma of these shoshonites was produced by a low degree of partial melting from a metasomatized enriched mantle source. During the ascent of shoshonitic …

Two-And-Three-Dimensional Crustal Thickness Of The Eastern Pontides (Ne Turkey), Nafiz Maden, Kenan Geli̇şli̇, Yener Eyüboğlu, Osman Bektaş

Turkish Journal of Earth Sciences

The Eastern Pontide orogenic belt is divided into three subzones (northern, southern and axial zones) based on present lithologies and facies associations. NE-SW-, NW-SE- and E-W-trending fault systems, which play an important role in palaeotectonics and neotectonics of the Eastern Pontides, separate these zones. Three different methods were used to estimate the Moho depth from observed gravity value, namely (i) empirical relationship between Moho depth and Bouguer anomaly; (ii) spectral analysis of the radial wave number and; (iii) by the gravity inversion method. Power spectrum, a statistical approach, is a widely used technique to determine the depth of geological sources …

Perturbation Of Closed Range Operators, Mohammad Sal Moslehian, Ghadir Sadeghi Jan 2009

Perturbation Of Closed Range Operators, Mohammad Sal Moslehian, Ghadir Sadeghi

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

Let T, A be operators with domains D(T) \subseteq D(A) in a normed space X. The operator A is called T-bounded if Ax \leq a x +b Tx for some a, b\geq 0 and all x \in D(T). If A has the Hyers--Ulam stability then under some suitable assumptions we show that both T and S: = A+T have the Hyers--Ulam stability. We also discuss the best constant of Hyers--Ulam stability for the operator S. Thus we establish a link between T-bounded operators and Hyers--Ulam stability.

Ophiolite-Hosted Copper And Gold Deposits Of Southeastern Turkey: Formation And Relationship With Seafloor Hydrothermal Processes, Ömer Tezcan Akinci

Turkish Journal of Earth Sciences

The paper documents evidence about the physical and chemical controls on the behaviour of Au and Cu sulphide deposits in fossil seafloor hydrothermal systems of SE Turkey. Observations from actively forming sulphides at mid-ocean ridges (MOR) and in back-arc environments are compared briefly with ancient analogues of gold and pyritic copper deposits such as Kisecik, Ergani and Siirt-Madenköy, formed at mid-oceanic ridges, or possibly at seamounts and back-arc settings. Many ophiolite-hosted Au- and Cu-deposits, of various sizes, are known to exist along the Bitlis-Zagros Suture Zone (BZS), the boundary between Anatolian and Arabian plates in SE Turkey. These deposits are …
