Mesozoic
carbonates of Sarız-Tufanbeyli area located in the eastern extension of the
Geyikdağı unit which represents the autochton of the Taurus belt. These
carbonates form a NE-SW trending belt of 20 km width limited by Binboağa and
Soğanlı dağı allochtons. In the studies of Demirtaşlı (1967), Özgül et al.
(1973), Erkan et al. (1978), Aziz et al. (1980, 1982), Metin et al. (1982)
which present the stratigraphy and geologic maps of the region, the Lower
Triassic corresponding to the Katarası formation has been recognized and the
Middle to late Triassic has been interpreted as a period of emergence and
erosion (Fig. 1). However, there are some facies developments of Middle to
Upper Triassic age interrelated between the Lower Triassic (Katarası formation)
and the overlying Köroğlutepe formation of Jurassic to Lower Cretaceous age.
Although some parts of these facies are difficult to recognize because of the
intense dolomitization, the parts which escaped from dolomitization exhibit
mappable outcrops in the region. The Middle-Upper Triassic recognized in three
measured stratigraphic sections (Fig. 1) shows the following facies
characteristics:
