Conclusions
Tectonically, Sivas Basin has been developed on the Alpine-
Himalayan belt with the complex interactions of Eurasian,
Arabian and African plates. Remarkable marks of this
collisional process were observed roughly in N-S direction
within the Oligocene Hafik formation, which was composed of
mainly massive gypsum deposits after Upper Miocene.
Deformational behaviour of décollement levels are proofed the
presence of thin-skinned deformation along their contacts
within horizontally Mio-Pliocene sediments.
Brovey transform, which was also known a useful image fusion
method, may be very useful spatially in lithological
differentiation studies combining with panchromatic band in
Landsat ETM+ images. On the other hand, public use digital
elevation data such as SRTM-3 and their evaluations in planar
and three-dimensional modes aid structural evaluation efforts in
geosciences and clench the results of directional edge
enhancement processes.
