In this study, trace element and organic matter-trace element relation between Jurassic coals exposed in three different fields in the eastern Taurides were examined and their enrichment values with respect to upper crust values were calculated and the coal characteristics were also compared with world arithmetic means and those from the U. S. In comparison to the Feke and Kizilin coals, Pb, Zn, Ag, and Hg element contents of the Gedikli coals are considerably high; Ni, As, and Ge contents are moderately high; and Cr, Cu, Co, Cd, Sb, Ga, and Sn contents are slightly high. The element concentrations are very similar to those of other fields. In the Gedikli coals, Sr content is extremely low and Ba content is slightly low with respect to other fields. Re, Mo, U, V, and B element concentrations are different for each of three fields. The major element contents of the Feke, Gedikli, and Kizilin coals were correlated with world arithmetic means and average values of coals from the U. S. and Fe, K, Mg, and Na concentrations were found to be similar. Ti and Al contents of the world and USA coals are higher while Ca and Mn concentrations are lower. Considering trace element contents of the world and U. S. coals, Ba is considerably high, Cu and Zr are moderately high, and Ga, Rb, and Sc elements are slightly high. In comparison to world arithmetic means and U. S. coals, Sr content of the Feke and Kizilin coals are very high while those of the Gedikli coals are lower. For major and trace elements, factors of enrichment with respect to upper crust values were also calculated. The highest enrichment values were calculated for Ca and S. Except for Se and Rb, all other trace elements are enriched with respect to upper crust.
