Taşlıtepe iron ore plaser occurrences was deposited during the Pliocene time which is the oldest placer than the other ones at
the region. It displays fairly well belonging to colluvial fan deposition features. Fragmenial ore material that has moved down from mountainside
by the influence of gravity will lend to accumulate at the foot of the slope. The basement rocks consist of crystalized limestones
Mesozoic age, serpantinized ultrabasics Upper Cretaceous age, siyenite-monzonite plutons Paleogene age and conglomerale-mudstone Miogcne
age. Taşlıtepe iron placer overlains these basement rocks with angulary unconformity and it is overlain by the river deposits with unconformably.
But placer was faced with these river deposits by oblique strike slipe faulting events of plio Quaternary age. These river deposits
arc exposed at the high position as a 400 m. from the actually river level as a result of quickly uplift of the region recently.
Sedimentologicial, structural and morphologicial datas of the placers indicate that placer materials has been transported from southwest toward
northeast route. It is thinked that there was a primary deposit at the siyenite serpantine contact although there isn't any primary deposit
at present. Source deposits of the placer has finished due to erosion effects from Pliocene to present. 600.000 tons measured ore and 400.000
tons probably ore total 1.000.000 tons iron ore was determined in the light of the eight drilling holes at the placer. The content of the iron
mineral which is martite in the placer varies from 1 ton 1.3 tons per cubic metre. Approximately 200.000 tons martite Containing % 62 Fe
was produced from the placer in 1989
