Özet

Ikizdere Pluton consists of granite, granodiorite, tonalite, monzonite, quartz monzonite containing pinkish colored K-feldspar megacrysts (KFMs). The crystal sizes of the KFMs range from 1 to 4 cm. The lath-shaped megacrysts are uniformly (i.e., randomly) distributed in the host plutonic rocks and have mafic and felsic inclusions whose crystal sizes are smaller than 1 mm. The crystal inclusions are biotite, slightly annitic in composition with X-Mg[=Fe-tot/(Fe-tot+Mg)]=0.50-0.58, amphibole (magnesio-hornblende, X-Mg[=Mg/(Mg+Fe-tot)]=0.70-0.79), iron-titanium oxide (low titanium magnetit and ilmenite), plagioclase (Ab(75-25)An(65-35)) and as minor quartz. The compositions of the KFMs range from Or(95)Ab(5)An(0) to Or(82)Ab(17)An(1). BaO contents of the megacrysts increase from core to rim, The mafic and felsic inclusions are compositionally similar those of the host rocks.
