Abstract

Geochemical investigation was carried out on tuffs intercalated with Neogene volcano-sedimentary rocks in the Yenice-Saraycik area (Demirci, Manisa), Turkey. The tuffs are classified as peraluminous and they show calc-alkaline character. They represent mainly rhyolitic to rhyodacitic composition.
