Evidence of neotectonic activity in the extreme south of the Precordillera Riojana

Neotectonic features to the north of Guandacol (Precordillera of La Rioja) include a variety of fault traces, developed within Quaternary deposits, resulting from the interaction of two morphostructural fronts with opposite vergence. The west-verging crystalline basement blocks of Sierras Pampeanas...
