OPHIOLITE AND RELATED COPPER DEPOSITS OF THE ERGANİ MINING DISTRICT, SOUTHEASTERN TURKEY

Year 1976, Volume: 86 Issue: 86, 35 - 49, 01.03.1976

Abstract

The Ergani mine, Southeastern Turkey, is well-known for its cupriferous pyrite ore deposits
associated with ophiolite, but the reserve is on the decrease recently. Following the proposal of
Mineral Research and Exploration Institute of Turkey (M.T.A.), the present author engaged in the
geological work during two years since 1971 as a project manager of «Regional Research for the
Subsurface Copper Deposits in the Ergani Mining District». The area of 200 km2
, mostly occupied
by alpine ophiolite including several copper deposits, Kısabekir, Mızırtepe, Anayatak, Weiss
and Hacan, has been a target for this investigation.

GÜNEYDOĞU ANADOLU ERGANİ MADEN BÖLGESİ OFİYOLİT VE İLGİLİ BAKIR YATAĞI

Year 1976, Volume: 86 Issue: 86, 35 - 49, 01.03.1976

Abstract

Güneydoğu, Anadolu'daki Ergani madeni ofiyolitle birleşmiş halde bulunan bakırlı pirit
cevheri yatakları olarak bilinmektedir, fakat rezervi son zamanlarda azalmaya başlamıştır. Maden
Tetkik ve Arama Enstitüsünün teklifi üzerine yazar, 1971 yılından itibaren iki yıl süre ile «Ergani
Maden Bölgesi Yeraltı Bakır Yatakları Bölgesel Araştırma» adlı projenin müdürü olarak jeolojik çalışmalar
yapmıştır. Çoğunlukla Alpin ofiyolitleri ile kaplı olup, birkaç bakır yatağı içeren 200 km2
lik
sahada Kısabekir, Mızır tepe, Anayatak, Weiss ve Hacan bu araştırmanın ana hedefleri olmuştur.
