Bursa Beige Marble

BURSA BEIGE MARBLE STONE
 

 Name : BURSA BEIGE MARBLE
 Location : BURSA-SOGUTALAN/ KILLIK 
 INCIRLIPINAR‑KOREKEM VILLAGES

 LITHOLOGICAL AND GEOLOGICAL
 CHARACTERISTICS

 Early Cretaceous 
 (Berriasien.Valenjinian) aged 'Bursa
 Beige' marble is lithologically defined as
 fossiliferous, biomicriric limestone.
 These beige, yellowish, grayish colored,
 medium layered rocks are known as
 Inatlar Limestone Unit. The lowermost
 part of the unit includes pink colored,
 sandy‑clayey limestone's that contain
 ammonites whereas middle part
 includes cherry limestone's. Uppermost
 part is micritic, pseudo‑oolitic
 limestone with abundant snicrofossils.
 The limestones of the uppermost part
 that quarried our for the marble,
 consist of crypro‑microcrysralline
 calcite minerals, microfossil shells,
 pellets and intraclast components. This
 limestone sequence is underlied by
 Triassic aged rock units at the bottom
 and is overlied by Late Cretaceous
 aged rock units at the top.
