Episodic Jurassic to Lower Cretaceous intraplate compression in Central Patagonia during Gondwana breakup
From Lower Jurassic to Lower Cretaceous, several intraplate compression events affected discrete sectors of Central Patagonia, under a general context of crustal extension associated with Gondwana breakup. This was demonstrated by means of 2D and 3D seismic and borehole data, which show partial inve...
