“…The fault which is the normal fault, E-W trending and 36-45° S-dipping faults in the study area. The mildly acid meteoric water infiltrates and reacted with carbonate host rocks, dissolves the host limestone giving rise to a large karst throughout the Upper Triassic carbonate rock of the Bolkar Mountain (Kahya et. al., 2019).…”

“…The hypogene sulfide mineralization is a relicts of cave wall/floor, and tectonic contacts between marble and melange. The sulfide mineralization (hypogene) in the area is extensively oxidized as a result of uplift the Tauride block during Oligo-Miocene, progressive erosion of landscape, development of fractures (tension gashes) under extensional conditions, and consequently weathering of the protore (Kahya et al, 2019). Locally occurred Zebra dolomite (ZD) near the Maden Village carbonated hosted ore deposit.…”

Zebra dolomites and carbonate-hosted Au-Ag-Zn±Pb deposits of Maden Village is located in the shelf type carbonate rocks of the Bolkar Mountains. The zebra dolomite locally form and there is no evidence for relation between dolomitization and mineralization. Maden village ZD is characterized by parallel light and dark bands that have similar mineralogy and chemistry by petrographic and SEM+EDX investigation. The δ 13 C (V-PDB) composition of the zebra dolomite from 2.59‰ to 2.72‰ and the δ 18 O (V-PDB) values of the zebra dolomite from-11.39 ‰ to-14.88 ‰. These isotopic values show that the source of oxygen and carbon was derived from marine carbonates and freshwater carbonates. Fluid inclusion studies on zebra dolomite show temperatures of 80-180 °C. Based on petrographic, isotope values and fluid inclusion study, we can say that the dolomitization occurred during the late diagentic conditions prior mineralization.
