Özet

Most barite deposits in Turkey are sediment-hosted deposits which are located in different lithologies within passive margin sediments from the Paleozoic. The Sarkikaraagac, Huyuk and Tordere deposits occur in the western part of the Tauride-Anatolide tectonic unit, whereas the Sekeroba and onsen region deposits located in the eastern part of Turkey occur on both Arabian and Tauride-Anatolide microplates. While the former deposits occur as both concordant and discordant bodies within Early Paleozoic carbonates, the latter deposits are found as discordant, fracture filling and replacement-type ore bodies.
