Structural and tectonic assessment of the western Huincul High, Neuquén Basin (Argentina)—The role of structural inheritance and mechanical stratigraphy in inversion systems
Abstract:The Neuquén Basin is a major Mesozoic sedimentary depocentre located in the retroarc foreland of the Argentinian Andes. The basin hosts world renowned inversion systems that have been the target of georesource exploration for the last three decades. The Huincul High is a structurally and economically prominent ca. 270 km long, E–W trending feature that formed by the accretion of exotic Palaeozoic terranes, influencing subsequent Mesozoic deformation in the basin. Exploration in the Huincul High has been mainly… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
