On the Geology of Central Anatolia

Abstract

The intermediate zone of Central Anatolia lies between the folds of Northern Anatolia (Anatolides) in the north and the folds of Southern Anatolia (Taurides) in the south. It consists of a system of basins, tablelands, isolated folds, volcanic areas and old cristalline masses. The central part of this intermediate zone and its frame form the subject of the pres¬ent paper. In our area, we can distinguish the major geological units of the central part of Anatolia and their components as foilows: 1) parts of the Anatolide folds, as the fan of Ankara, the Çankırı-İskilip ranges and the fan of Çorum representing the western, northern and nort-eastern boundary of the area; 2) the volcanic zone of the Hasan Dağı in the south-east of the region and 3) the inner part of the Tauride folds limiting the region in the south. The central part of Anatolia described here is divided by the high grounds of Kırşehir- Keskin and of the Boz Dağlar into three depressions, the Middle Kızılırmak-Delice Irmak basin, the Tuz Gölü basin and the Konya-Ereğli basin.
