Petrology of the Neogene Şerefiye Volcanics (Zara-Sivas)

Abstract

The study area crops out around the town of Şerefiye in the northeastern parts of the Sivas basin. The units in the study area start with the Refahiye Complex, which consists of Upper Cretaceous aged ultramafic rocks from bottom to top. Akıncılar Formation consisting of Eocene aged sedimentary rocks overlies Refahiye complex. Middle-Upper Eocene Karataş volcanics and contemporaneous Kösedağ syenite, which has a warm contact relationship with it, overlie this formation. Onari formation, which is composed of Lower Miocene aged sedimentary rocks, also unconformably overlies these units. The Upper Miocene-Pliocene Şerefiye volcanics, which form the basis of this study, are overlain by the Onarı formation. The Kadıköy formation, which consists of carbonate and clastic sedimentary rocks, unconformably overlies the Şerefiye volcanics. Quaternary alluvium overlies all these units. The Upper Miocene-Pliocene Şerefiye volcanics, which consist of foyidites and tefrites, are generally gray-black in color and contain abundant gas cavities in their upper levels, but are quite hard and compact. The Şerefiye volcanics show two different textural features. The first of these textures is a very fine grained hypocrystalline porphyritic tissue containing plagioclase phenocrysts. The second textural feature is characteristic with its coarser grained and rich phenocryst content compared to the first texture. These phenocrysts are augite, olivine, nepheline and garnet minerals, especially plagioclase. The effects of fractional crystallization, partial melting and crustal contamination are observed geochemically in the Şerefiye volcanics, which show alkaline character. In the Santonian-Campanian period, the oceanic crust forming the northern branch of the Neo-Tethys ocean subducted briefly under the Pontides towards the bottom of the Eurasian plate. In the continuation of the subduction event, a widespread crustal thickening occurred in the region and the İzmir-Ankara-Erzincan suture zone was formed along this line. The Upper Miocene-Pliocene Şerefiye volcanics are the product of a young volcanism formed as a result of the fractures that developed in the region during the post-collisional phase.
