The study area is located in southeastern part of Sultandaglari, 50 km to the northeast of Isparta. The geological units exposed in the area are: The Lower-Middle Cambrian Caltepe Formation, which comprises grey and pink coloured recrystallized limestone, nodular limestone, dolomitic limestone and dolomite, is the oldest unit. The Upper Cambrian - Lower Ordovician Seydisehir Formation conformably overlies the Caltepe formation and comprises green to brown coloured metasandstone, quartzite, phyllite, calcshists, sc...

In the study area the lowermost unit is the autochthonous GeyikdagД± unit (Upper Cambrian-Lower Ordovician Seydisehir Formation, Upper Jurassic Hacialabaz formation, Upper Cretaceous Cokelen diabase and Upper Cretaceous Saytepe formation). The BolkardagД± unit (Devonian-Lower-Middle Carboniferous Hocalar formation, Upper Permian, Taskent formation and Jurassic-Upper Cretaceous SinatdagД± formation) rests allochthonously on the GeyikdagД± Unit.

The Goze\ccukuru As-Sb mineralization was occured in an area of 2,1 km2, which is located near the small town of Sahin Village, 22 km west of Kutahya. Low-grade metamorphic rocks (metasandstones, metaconglomerate, chalcshist, graphitic mikaschists, and micaschist and quartz schist) of Upper Paleozoic (Carboniferous- Permian) aged Sahin Formation form the basement. The rhyolitic and rhyodacitic tuffs of Middle-Upper Miocene aged TavsanlД± volcanites uncomformably covers to the Sahin Formation. The Upper Pliocene ag...
