Estratigrafia y estructura del devónico-carbonífero en el sector septentrional de la Sierra de la Punilla, precordillera de La Rioja y San Juan

The stratigraphy and structure of the Devonian and Carboniferous units of northern Punilla rangeare analysed. The Punilla Formation mid-upper Devonian to lower Carboniferous in age, is the oldest unit recognized. It is composed by two sequences: the lower one is mainly sandstones with some conglomer...
