GEOCHEMISTRY AND PETROGENESIS OF OLIGOCENE DACITES FROM THE CENTRAL BOSNIA AND HERZEGOVINA WITH INSIGHT IN THE POSTCOLLISIONAL TECTONIC EVOLUTION OF CENTRAL DINARIDIC OPHIOLITE BELT
Magmatic rocks of post-Late Eocene magmatic formation are widespread in the Sava segment of SavaVardar suture zone and adjoin areas. The rocks formed as a response to transpressional-transtensional tectonic activity preceded by the Cretaceous-Eocene compression of the Internal Dinarides and Tisia Unit as fragments of Eurasian continental lithospher...

PETROGRAPHY AND MINERAL CHEMISTRY OF OLIGOCENE SHOSHONITIC DACITES FROM THE CENTRAL BOSNIA
Postorogenic volcanic rocks of different Tertiary ages are very common in the Sava-Vardar Zone of the Dinarides and in the southeastern part of adjoing Pannonian Basin. South of the Sava-Vardar Zone, in central Bosnia, Tertiary volcanic rocks occur within ophiolite sequences and genetically related sedimentary formations of the Dinaride Ophiolite Z...

QUALITATIVE CHARACTERISTICS OF BAUXITE „OŠTRELJ“ NEAR BOSANSKA KRUPA
Qualitative characteristics of bauxite deposit „Oštrelj“ are defined through extensive laboratory testing of chemical and mineralogical-petrographic composition, and geomechanical characteristics. Chemical composition has shown that it is a relative poor bauxite with low Al/Si module (2,28). Low values of Al/Si module are result of lower Al2O3 conc...

PETROGENESIS OF THE MAGLAJ VOLCANICS, CENTRAL BOSNIA
In Bosnia and Herzegovina, Tertiary volcanic rocks occur within two geotectonically different areas: (1) in northeastern Bosnia, the wider area of Srebrenica and, (2) to a lesser extent in central Bosnia, the wider areas of Maglaj, Teslić and Nemila (Kolići). The major and trace element variations in the rocks surrounding Maglaj indicate their high...
