Heybeli travertines and tufas crop out in the north of Lake Van, in the region between Heybeli village and Lake Van. While there is a 55 m travertine sequence at the base, a 21 m thick tufa sequence lies above these travertines. As a result of field and laboratory studies, Heybeli travertines and tufas were divided into 8 facies: brecciated-lithoclastic facies, crystalline crust facies, scrub type facies, raft type facies, gas cavity facies, phytoherm roofstone facies, phytoherm boundstone facies and micritic tufa facies. The data obtained in the study indicate that tectonism, volcanism and lake level changes played an active role in the formation and development of these travertines and tufas

Heybeli Traverten ve Tufaları, Van Gölünün kuzeyinde, Heybeli Köyü ile Van Gölü arasında kalan bölgede yüzeylemektedir. Tabanda 55 m traverten istifi bulunurken, bu travertenlerin üzerine 21 m kalınlığında tufa istifi gelmektedir. Yapılan arazi ve laboratuvar çalışmaları sonucunda Heybeli traverten ve tufaları, breşik-litoklastlı fasiyes, kristalin kabuk fasiyesi, çalı tipi fasiyes, sal tipi fasiyes, gaz boşluklu fasiyes, fitoherm çatıtaşı fasiyesi, fitoherm bağlamtaşı fasiyesi ve mikritik tufa fasiyesi olmak üzere 8 fasiyese ayırtlanmıştır. Bu çalışmada elde edilen veriler, traverten ve tufaların oluşumları ve gelişimleri sürecinde, tektonizma, volkanizma ve göl seviye değişimlerinin etkin rol oynadığını göstermektedir.
