    The Bolu Massif represents the Late Neoproterozoic crystalline basement of the Istanbul Zone (NW Turkey), and is made up of two tectonometamorphic units which are separated by a major tectonic line. The lower tectonometamorphic unit comprises amphibolite-facies metamorphic rocks which are dominated by the migmatitic amphibolite and locally trondhjemite. On the other hand, the overlying tectonometamorphic unit comprises greenschist-facies mafic to felsic metavolcanic rocks intruded by a huge granitoid of Late Neoproterozoic age. This study deals with the metamorphic evolution of the underlying amphibolite-facies tectonometamorphic unit. The amphibolite-facies tectonometamorphic unit comprises migmatitic amphibolite (ca. 80% of the exposure area) and concordant to crosscutting trondhjemite sills/dykes/stocks (ca. 20% of the exposure area). Although this amphibolite unit was formerly interpreted to the crustal part of an ophiolite, rare earth element patterns and multi-element variation diagrams involving fluid immobile elements differ from the well-documented ophiolites. The geochemical features of these voluminous amphibolites are more consistent with those in intra-oceanic arcs and magmatic arcs. U-Pb dating of zircons from four trondhjemite samples and from three amphibolite samples consistently yielded ages of 255-260 Ma (Middle to Late Permian). Only zircons from one amphibolite sample defined a discordia with an upper intercept age of 554 ± 34 Ma (2) (Late Neoproterozoic-Cambrian). The geochronological data shows that the amphibolite-facies tectonometamorphic unit does not represent the Late Neoproterozoic basement of the Istanbul Zone. It is related to Late Palaeozoic to Late Mesozoic orogenic events.
