Argon data for Central Anatolian Ophiolite
June 4, 2020
This dataset accompanies planned publication 'Conditions, mechanisms, and timing of high-grade metamorphism and ductile deformation of the southern segment of the Central Anatolian Ophiolite'. The Ar/Ar data are for samples that record the metamorphic deformation of the ophiolite. The geochronology provides time constraints for the deformation studied in the manuscript. Samples were collected from the Central Anatolian Ophiolite by Molly Radwany and Donna Whitney, who sent them to the USGS for Ar/Ar analysis.

Conditions and timing of high-grade metamorphism and ductile deformation of the southern segment of the Central Anatolian Ophiolite
Ophiolitic fragments scattered over a wide area of Central Anatolia exhibit varying degrees of metamorphism, from unmetamorphosed to upper amphibolite facies, although geochemical similarities suggest they are all part of the Central Anatolian Ophiolite (CAO). Magmatic crystallization of oceanic crust in the CAO at ~ 91 Ma coincided with high-grade metamorphism of rocks that underlie the southern,
