Tectonic and paleoenvironmental significance of the Paleogene coal seams of Estancia La Correntina, Fuegian Andes

The continental sedimentary coaly outcrop of Estancia La Correntina, San Pablo River (54° 33' 01″ S, 64° 00' 20″ W), is described. The palynological assemblage compare closely with the similar one described from the Sloggett Formation, and is referred to the late Eocene-early Oligocene. Po...
