Source areas in the Agost Basin (Betic Cordillera)
A new work to illustrate a changes in source areas related with pull-apart basin in the Betics. Here the link to the work in researchgate. Sedimentary and mineralogical analyses were performed in the Neogene Agost Basin (External Domain, Betic Cordillera) to reconstruct relationships between tectonics and sedimentation, and source areas evolution over time. Geological Setting […]

The Agost Basin (Betic Cordillera, Alicante province, Spain): a pull-apart basin involving salt tectonics
A new work to illustrate a strike-slip basin in the Betics. Here the link to the publisher. The Agost Basin is characterized by a Miocene-Quaternary shallow marine and continental infilling controlled by the evolution of several curvilinear faults involving salt tectonics derived from Triassic rocks. From the Serravallian on, the area experienced a horizontal maximum compression […]
