“…It is characterized by a series of tectonic domains, with an accretionary wedge in the Coastal Cordillera, Quaternary deposits in the Central Valley, a hybrid thrust belt in the Principal Cordillera, a rigid block uplift in the Frontal Cordillera, basement uplift in the Precordillera and the Sierras Pampeanas, and a series of Neogene‐Quaternary broken foreland basins (Alvarado et al., 2009; Giambiagi et al., 2015; Lossada et al., 2020; Martínez et al., 2016; Ramos et al., 2002, 2004; Rodríguez et al., 2018; Suriano et al., 2017). A decrease of volcanic activity since the early and middle Miocene (Jones et al., 2016; Kay & Abbruzzi, 1996; Litvak et al., 2007; Ramos et al., 2002), and a complex history of shortening and exhumation (Barrionuevo et al., 2019; Lossada et al., 2017, 2020; Martos et al., 2020; Rodríguez et al., 2018; Suriano et al., 2017) is also one of the main features of this area. The transition between the Pampean flat‐slab and the southern normal subduction zone is observed along the Aconcagua fold‐and‐thrust belt (AFTB; Figure 1), characterized by a mixture of thin‐ and thick‐skinned tectonic styles (Giambiagi & Ghiglione, 2009; Giambiagi et al., 2003a, 2015; Porras et al., 2016), that straddle the axis of symmetry of the Maipo Orocline in central Chile (Arriagada et al., 2013; Figure 1).…”
