Quartz, which is one of the most abundant minerals in nature, can be found in magmatic and metamorphic forms, as well as the usual components of granite and sedimentary formations. Quartz minerals, which are also known as the main component of quartzites, are also known as gangue minerals in many mineralizations. Quartz samples from two different sampling levels, namely the Kaletepe lower and the Kaletepe upper region, used in the study were prepared. Thermoluminescence (TL) glow curves of the samples exposed to radiation with a 90Sr/90Y β source were recorded with a TLD reader. While peaks were obtained at approximately 270 °C from the glow curves of the Kaletepe lower samples irradiated with β source, peaks were obtained at approximately 270 °C and 350 °C from the Kaletepe upper samples. When the annual average dose and age values of the lower and upper Kaletepe samples are examined, it can be said that it was formed in a time period of ~8000 years between two areas with a height difference of 130m.
