Özet

Gold exploration works in central Anatolia, Turkey, were intensified during the last decade, and potentially important gold mineralizations were discovered. In the region, important gold discoveries hosted by metamorphic and granitic rocks are, in the west, Savcılıebeyit and Terziali (Kırşehir), in the middle part, Himmetdede and Mahmatlar (Kayseri), Akçataş (Nevşehir), and at the south-east, Gümüşler (Niğde) mineralizations. The Savcılıebeyit gold mineralization consists mainly of gold-quartz veins, and is the first discovered gold enrichment hosted by metamorphic rocks of west-central Anatolia. These veins are situated at the south-eastern margin of the Cefalıkdağ-Baranadağ granite-migmatite dome, at 60 km west of the city of Kırşehir. In this study, preliminary results of geological and structural investigations of the gold-quartz veins are presented.
