rocks of Voykar Ophiolite in order to determine mechanism of formation of pyroxenites in ophiolitic mantle sections. Compositions of clinopyroxene and olivine from pyroxenites were compared to their compositions in
pseudostratigraphy. These belts are referred to as the Northern Ophiolite Belt, Southern Ophiolite Belt and Tauride Ophiolite Belt. Approximately east-west trending Tauride belt ophiolites (from west to east: Lycian nappes, Antalya, Beyflehir-Hoyran nappes, Mersin, Alihoca, Pozant›-Karsant ...

290 SHERVAIS ET AL. calc-alkaline volcanic rocks. The first three stages of ophiolite formation were terminated by the intrusion of mid-ocean ridge basalt dikes, and the eruption of mid-ocean ridge basalt or ocean-island basalt volcanic suites.
Ophiolite exposed near Nal and Kurku areas represents the northernmost extremity of Bela Ophiolite. The rocks are highly disrupted and dismembered and lack a coherent ophiolite sequence.
