Geochemistry and mineral assemblages of the Mediterranean evaporite deposits: the Tuzla rock-salt deposit in Bosnia and Hercegovina.

The evaporitic deposit of the Tuzla salt basin in Bosnia-Hercegovina is treated in terms of the regional Mediterranean evaporite formations. The geological and tectonic processes leading to the breakup of the Tethyan ocean during the middle and upper Miocene have caused a sequence of dessication and marine transgression periods which have resulted in the formation of extensive evaporite deposits along the continental margins of the Paratethyan and Mediterranean Seas. The lithofacial, mineralogical and geochemical characteristics of the Tuzla evaporite series show a similar pattern with the Gessoso-Solifera Messinian series in Sicily and set the requisite framework for a complex investigation of the depositional environments of Mediterranean evaporites.
