ABSTRACT: The Ulukışla-Çamardı basin is bordered by .Niğde group in the north, Bolkar group in the south, and Ecemiş fault in the east The basin is divided into three sections in terms of stratigraphy and lithology. The purpose of this study is to illustrate the genesis, mechanisms, mineralogies and deposit properties of extensive mineralizations in the studied area., As a result of investigations,,, main mineralizations, some of them are of economic interest, related to magmatisxn resulted from continent-continent collision are Karıncadağı Pb-Zn-Cu, Alkoyağı dere Co, Karnıoğlu Fe-Cu, Esendemir tepe Fe-Co-Cu, Uçurum tepe Cu, Cipcip dere Fe-Cu, Kayserilinin dere Cu and Yağlıtaş Pb-Cu
