The aim of this study is to locate and GIS modelling Oligocene Lignite in Malkara (Tekirdag) region.
The study area is located in the province of Tekirdag. Malkara and Hayrabolu districts are located at
the intersection of the borders. (These are city center of Tekirdag) Approximately 35 km west of
Tekirdag city center, approximately 18 km north-east of Malkara district and 28 km south of
Hayrabolu district. This area includes the region where the Oligocene aged lignite deposits are
located. Oligocene aged lignites are found in the Danismen Formation between gray - green
colored claystone, sandstone, conglomerate and tuff alternations. In this study GIS Modelling and
log correlations were made with 8 borings in the field where Malkara lignites is located. 24 different
units have been defined and these units have been correlated with each other. As a result of the
correlation, the continuity of a Lignite layer (Ceiling Lignite) at the top, a Lignite layer (Base Lignite)
at the bottom, and between these layers a Clayey Lignite layer consisting of both clay and lignite
were determined in both North-South and East-West lines. In the study, land modeling was
performed in 2 colors and multiple colors (Rainbow).
