Andaman Ophiolite: An Overview [PDF]

, 2020
The Andaman Ophiolite remained little explored for long but recent studies yielded important first-order findings that hold promise for further research. Here we summarise these first-order constraints on the structure, geochemistry, and evolution of the Andaman Ophiolite and identify key frontiers for future research.

Magnetic anisotropy of a sub-ophiolitic metamorphic sole (Mersin ophiolite, Turkey)

Bulletin Of The Mineral Research and Exploration, 2022
The Mersin ophiolite of southern Turkey is a well-exposed, Late Cretaceous, Neo-Tethyan suprasubduction zone ophiolite. It is underlain by metamorphic sole rocks inferred to have formed at the top of a down-going plate during subduction. These have a well-developed foliation and lineation observable in the field (defined by the preferred orientations ...

Ophiolites and ophiolitic melanges of Turkey: A review

, 2013
The aim of the presented study is to review the ophiolites and ophiolitic mélanges of Turkey and their importance for constraints on the evolution of the region. On the basis of the existing data, the ophiolitic associations of Turkey are classified into three main groups. 1.

Fore-arc ophiolite.

Journal of Geography (Chigaku Zasshi), 1989
Recent results of dredging and drilling of inner trench slopes have revealed that the abundant ophiolitic rocks (fore-arc ophiolite) crop out in the Izu-Ogasawara, Mariana, Yap, Tonga, and Middle America regions. These are commonly composed of serpentinized peridotite, gabbro, and volcanics of basic to intermediate composition.The fore-arc ophiolite of

Ophiolites of Japan.

Journal of Geography (Chigaku Zasshi), 1989
The Japanese ophiolites are divided into nappe type and melange type by their occurrences. The nappe type formed in a short period (a few 10Ma), and emplaced shortly after its igneous formation keeping its original igneous stratigraphy. They generally escaped from post-emplacement, high-pressure metamorphism. The melange type is a mixture of ophiolitic
