| Zusammenfassung |
| A paleomagnetic study was carried out in the Sakarya Zone from volcanic and sedimentary
rocks at 36 sites in the age of Lower Jurassic to Miocene. Stable paleomagnetic direction are
obtained from 30 sites. Incremental paleomagnetic fold tests were applied to constrain the
age of magnetization. The results showed that a post-folding is characterized for the
sedimentary rocks in Paleocene-Eocene and Miocene age, which indicate that the
magnetization is acquired after folding. The magnetization for the sedimentary and volcanic
rocks in Lower-Middle Jurassic and Late Jurassic-Lower Cretaceous sites showed a positive
fold test and a paleolatitude of 39°N and 40°N, respectively. These results showed that
the Sakarya zone was close to Eurasia in Lower-Jurassic and Lower Cretaceous. |
