Petrogenetic Characteristic of Mamasun (Aksaray) Gabbroids
Abstract
The research area is located at the southern part of Ağaçören Intrusive Suite at the North East of Aksaray in Central Anatolian Crystalline Complex. Field and petrology studies show that the lithology of the area is mainly composed of two main units which are gabbro and diorite and associated rocks microgabbroporphyry, microdiorite, microdioriteporphyry vein rocks and diabase composition are distinguished. Generally, gabbros have holocrystalline and cumulus texture. The plagioclases (labradorite) + hornblende + augite ± quartz ± epidote ± calcite ± titanite and opaque minerals form the compositions of the Mamasun gabbroid, which are changing from pyroxene-hornblende gabbro to diorite in compositions. The MORB normalized elemental patterns of the gabbroid and mafic dykes reveal enrichment in LIL element and depletion in HFS elements. There are a clear similarity between the major oxide, trace and rare earth element contents of the gabbroids (SiO2 %49.88, Na2O %1.59, CaO %11.51, La 0.9 ppm and Sm/Nb ratio 1.31) and Oceanic Crust contents (SiO2 %49.5, Na2O %2.8, CaO %11.3, La 3.7 and Sm/Nb ppm ratio 0.33).
The Chondrite normalized REE Spider diagram reflects fractional crystallization process similar to R1-R2 diagram of Mamasun Gabbroids. The chondrite normalized REE diagrams, except for positive Eu anomalies in pyroxene-hornblende gabbros, show that nearly horizontal patterns which significate that upper mantle source similar to depleted MORB.
