Abstract
The studied volcanic rocks in Kumanovo, Sveti Nikole and Demir kapija areas are of Late Miocene - Pilocene age and potassic to ultrapotassic character (Romanian type). They have been clasified as phonotephrites, shoeshoites and latites with high Mg# (> 70) and high Ni and Cr contents indicative of their primitive nature. The volcanics contain phenocrists of Fo - rich olivine, diopside to augite, phlogopite to Ba - and Ti - rich biotete (close to a kinoshitalite) in a groundmass consisting of microlites of the same minerals + leucite. Ti - magnetite +-ilmenite enclosed by Na - sanidine and/or anorthose. The rocks are significantly enriched in LILE and show negative Ta, Nb, Ti an positive Pb anomalies.
