In this study, characteristics of skarn rocks and associated ore minerals that are developed along intrusive contacts between Upper Cretaceous Elazığ plutonic rocks (granite, granodiorite, tonalite, diorite, gabbro) and Permo-Triassic Keban metamorphites exposed at four different locations at 30 km northwest of Elazığ were studied. Skarn rocks observed as endo and exoskarns are composed of andradite and grossular-rich garnet; pyroxene (diopside, hedenbergite, pigeonite), amphibole (hornblende and tremolite/actinolite), epidote, quartz and sphene. On the basis of calcic and dolomitic character of wall rocks, a skarn zoning from bedrock to wall rock was identified. This zoning is associated with a disseminated ore mineral assemblage of magnetite, hematite, pyrite, chalcopyrite, specularite, ilmenite, pyrrhotite and covelline/chalcosine.
