Neogen Stratıgraphy Of The Kınık (İzmir) Area And İts Neotectonic Features
West Anatolian evolved from Egean type cross-grabens within close of the North branch of Neo-tehthys in the Early Miocene after the collision between the Sakarya continent and the Anatolid block in the Middle Eocene This study aims to explore the Dereköy, Kırkağaç, Bakır and Bakırçay grabens evolved begining from Early Miocene and stratigraphic sequence of Neogene rocks and structural characteristics of Dereköy, Kırkağaç, Bakır and Bakırçay grabens in the Northeast Aegean region. Based on Neotectonic parameters produced, Neogene evolution models of the Kırkağaç, Dereköy, Bakır and Bakırçay grabens are suggested.
(1) Paleozoic aged metamorphics dependent the Sakarya zone in the North (2) Mesozoic aged recrystallize limestones of Bornova complex dependent the İzmir-Ankara Zone are basement rocks in the study area. Covering the basement rocks are called the cover units which comprise the Lower-Middle Miocene age (Aquitanşan-Burdigalian) fluvial and lake sediments of the Soma Formation, Adilköy Volcanits (22.2 ma, Burdigalian) having sub-volcanic basaltic character are intrusive Soma Formation, Middle Eocene age (Serravalian) sediments and volcano-sedimentary units of the Deniş Formation, Kalemköy Volcanits (17 Ma, Langian-Serravalian) having andesitic, trachyandesitic chracter that evolved within Deniş Formation, Upper Pliocene age Kumköy Formation and Holocene age alluvial sediments.
In study area, normal faults are compose to acute angle with K-G direction, NW-SE and NE-SW directed oblique and normal faults are identified along the margins of the Dereköy, Bakırçay, Kırkağaç and Bakır grabens. Normal faults are compose to acute angle with K-G direction are named the Çamlıca, Kırkağaç Faults while NW-SE trending oblique faults are named Bakır Faults and NE-SW trending faults Çiftlikköy and Dereköy faults. Normal faults are compose to acute angle with K-G direction enclose the Dereköy Graben from the South and Kırkağaç basin from the West. NE-SW direction normal faults enclose from North and East of Bakırçay and Dereköy grabens while NW-SE enclose from West of Bakır Graben. NE-SW directed faults are observed in cover units. Because of NE-SW directed faults are cuts NW-SE directed faults, NE-SW directed faults are younger than NW-SE directed faults. NW-SE direction young Bakır Fault are evolved between Mesozoic aged methamorphics and slope wash. Bakır Fault modified collapse areas in South of Kırkağaç. Thus Bakır Fault cause to be formed Bakır Graben. So Bakır Graben is younger than Dereköy and Kırkağaç Grabens. Stratigraphic and structural data show that the Neogene basins of the Northeast Aegean region opened at least in Early Miocene and its sedimentary infill was entirely controlled by the regional tectonics.
