Özet
In the western part of the Menderes Massif, Selcuk-Dilek Peninsula, relies of Tertiary HP metamorphism under epidote-blueschist facies conditions were recognized in the Mesozoic cover series. This subduction-related high-pressure metamorphism, with temperature of less than 470 degrees C and minimum pressure of about 10 kbar, was subsequently followed by a Barrovian-type overprint under greenschist facies conditions during Late Eocene/Early Oligocene. Based on the lithostratigraphy and the two-fold Tertiary metamorphism, the Mesozoic cover series in this area can be correlated with the Vourliutes unit on Samos Island, belonging to the Cycladic Crystalline Complex.
