TEZ12842Tez (Yüksek Lisans) -- Çukurova Üniversitesi, Adana, 2017.Kaynakça (s. 117-150) var.XXI, 127 s. :_res. (bzs. rnk.), tablo ;_29 cm.In this study, determining the heavy metal/mineral contents of coastal sands of selected locations of Turkish east Mediterranean (between Samandağı and Narlıkuyu) and TRNC (Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus) was investigated. 32 samples were taken from appropriate locations. Chemical compositions of the materials were revealed. Particle size distributions of the samples were presented by sieve analysis. Mineralogical analysis was performed by using XRD and microscopic images. Mineral contents of the samples were determined. Mineral paragenesis of the each area was presented. Elemental distribution and size distribution values of the specimens were graphed by running ArcGIS computer software. Preliminary magnetic separation test was applied to K2 sample. It is thought that this research dealing with the characterization of Turkish coastal sands will contribute positive feedbacks to the literature.In this study, determining the heavy metal/mineral contents of coastal sands of selected locations of Turkish east Mediterranean (between Samandağı and Narlıkuyu) and TRNC (Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus) was investigated. 32 samples were taken from appropriate locations.
