The Tmolos deposits extend like a continuous belt along the northern slopes of the Bozdağ Mountains. These deposits are faulted and tilted, and some hydrothermal alteration can be observed due to the effect of the water along the faulted zones. With its brownish reddish tints hydrothermal alteration to the Tmolos deposits can be observed forming an almost continuous belt at the contact point of the Tmolos deposits with the metamorphic basement which forms the nucleus of the Bozdağ Mountains, and in the vicinity of the Karadut separation fault.
Geopark A Geopark is a single, unified geographical area where landforms or geological features of international geological significance in terms of landscape and scenery are managed with a holistic concept of nature protection, science, tourism education, and sustainable development. Geoparks, which host a large number of geosites, are conservation areas that aim to preserve the geosites and transfer them to future generations. These areas are also sustainable development areas that aim at the social and cultural development of the local people. In addition to the protection of our geoheritage, geoparks also aim to increase awareness in human society of the sustainable use of natural resources, reducing the impacts of climate change and the risks associated with natural disasters, etc.
