The geological structure and the tectonic evolution of Turkey, which is
part of the Alpine belt, took mainly place during the Cenozoic Era. At that time,
the Central Anatolia, the Taurus Mountains and the Southeastern Anatolia were
developed. On the other hand the evolution of the northern and northwestern
regions, which are called Pontids, took place during the Paleozoic and Mesozoic
Eras.
The following structural elements in the tectonics of Turkey can be distinguished
:
1. Metamorphic - crystalline massifs,
2. Folded Paleozoic mountain chains,
3. Folded mountains of Mesozoic and Tertiary age,
4. Major faults and overthrusts,
5. Grabens and depressions,
6. Active faults and main earthquake zones.
Yeryüzünde «Alpin sıradağlar» zümresine dahil bulunan Türkiye'nin jeolojik
yapısı ve tektonik gelişmesi Arz tarihinin yeni devirlerinde, esas itibariyle Senozoik
esnasında vukua gelmiştir. 50 - 60 milyon senelik bir zamanı kapsayan bu devrede,
bilhassa İç Anadolu, Toroslar ve Güneydoğu Anadolu inkişaf etmiş; «Pontidler»
diye isimlendirilen kuzey ve kuzeybatı bölgelerinin gelişmesi ise, daha eski jeolojik
devirlerde, Paleozoik ve Mesozoik çağlarda başlamıştır.
