Estratigrafía del Cretácico Superior-Paleoceno del área de Bahía Thetis, Andes fueguinos, Argentina: acontecimientos tectónicos y paleobiológicos

Structure and evolution of the Fuegian Andes foreland thrust-fold belt, Tierra del Fuego, Argentina: Paleogeographic implications

“…A fourth depocenter is recognized in front of the compressive structures of the thrust-fold belt, including deformed to subhorizontal sedimentary rocks from uppermost Eocene to middle Miocene, considered to be the fill of the last foredeep formed within the Austral and Malvinas basins prior to the deactivation of the compressive regime (Fig. 2;Olivero and Malumián, 1999;Olivero et al, , 2003Malumián and Olivero, 2006;Olivero and Malumián, in press). …”

Upper Oligocene–Miocene clinoforms of the foreland Austral Basin of Tierra del Fuego, Argentina: Stratigraphy, depositional sequences and architecture of the foredeep deposits

“…By the late Campanian (Olivero et al, 2003), the continuation of this compressional regime resulted in the uplift of the Fuegian Andes and the subsequent generation of the foreland Austral and Malvinas basins (Biddle et al, 1986) (Fig. 1a).…”

Sand dispersal in the southeastern Austral Basin, Tierra del Fuego, Argentina: Outcrop insights from Eocene channeled turbidite systems

“…4A). This foredeep had an elongated geometry parallel to the orogen, and was fed by turbidite systems derived from the Fuegian Andes and the South Patagonian andesitic magmatic arc (Olivero et al, , 2003Martinioni, 2010;Torres Carbonell, 2010).…”

“…The closure of the back-arc basin started at the beginning of the Late Cretaceous, while foreland subsidence, detrital supply, and facies changes related to the creation of the foreland basin system, are recorded from the Turonian to Campanian (Biddle et al, 1986;Fildani et al, 2003;Olivero et al, 2003;Fildani and Hessler, 2005;Romans et al, 2010Romans et al, , 2011.…”
