Geology, Petrography and Geochemistry of the Subduction Related Volcanic Rocks, West of Konya, Central Anatolia

Abstract

The northwest of Konya is covered by Neogene volcanic breccias, agglomerates, tuffites, tuffs and lavas of andesite, dacite and basaltic andesite. The basaltic andesites contain about 7-10% of olivine, 3-5 % clinopyroxene, 5-10 % orthopyroxene, 60-70 % plagioclase and 5-10 % opaque minerals while the andesitic lavas include 50-60 % plagioclase, 10-15 % hornblende, 5% biotite, 2 %, clinopyroxene, 1 % sanidine, 1 % quartz and 3 % opaque minerals. Main constituents in the dacitic rocks are plagioclase (35-40%), quartz (10-15 %), hornblende (15-20 %), biotite (10-12 %), opaque minerals (2-3%) and sanidine (3 %). The plagioclase in dacites and andesitic rocks have oscillatory zoning and sieve texture. The volcanic rocks range in composition from basaltic andesites to dacites with calc-alkaline character. Co-variation of major and trace element contents suggest fractional crystallization of hornblende, plagioclase, pyroxene and titaniferous magnetite. The plagioclase fractionation is confirmed by a slight development of negative Eu anomaly. High LREE/HREE and L1LE/ HFSE ratios show that the samples were possibly formed from a subduction-related magma at active continental margin. The strong fractionated and riched REE patterns of the rocks indicate that the formation of these rocks may have involved continental crust.
