“…[36,60,61]. Zerfass [62], proposed a regional uplift due to oblique compression for Lower to Middle Triassic times which is somehow in agreement with the geodynamic contest envisioned by Llambías [63] for the basement of the Neuquén Basin, except for the thermomechanical parameters that could have triggered this upwelling, for these latter authors suggest the probable influence of a thermal rise and/or slab brake off.…”

“…In the Late Carboniferous, the sedimentation of the El Plata Formation took place in a back-arc extensional basin (Fig. 11C), representing the first Gondwanan pre-orogenic sequence (Mpodozis and Ramos, 1989;Fernández Seveso et al, 1993;Astini, 1996;Azcuy et al, 1999;Charrier et al, 2007). The Carboniferous rocks of the study area are part of the Río Blanco-Calingasta-Uspallata basin (Amos and Rollieri, 1965 (Azcuy and Morelli, 1970;Salfity and Gorustovich, 1983;López Gamundi et al, 1987;Azcuy, 1985;Fernández Seveso et al, 1993;Azcuy et al, 1999;Limarino y Spalletti, 2006;.…”

“…Traditionally the 1,300 to 1,900 m thick, folded lower section (Oligocene to early Miocene in age) has been mapped as the Abanico Formation or the equivalent Coya-Machalí Formation south of 34°S (Klohn, 1960;Aguirre, 1960;Thiele, 1980;Charrier et al, 2002Charrier et al, , 2005, whereas the upper unconformable subhorizontal volcanic rocks (1,300 to 3,000 m thick) are considered to be part of the Farellones Formation (Charrier et al, 2002). In fact, a progressive unconformity (time-transgressive) separates these units and the K-Ar ages of the two volcanic units overlap between 22 and 16 Ma (Nyström et al, 2003;Charrier et al, 2002Charrier et al, , 2005Charrier et al, , 2007. The volcanism of the Principal Andean Cordillera of central Chile appears to have initially developed during the Eocene-Oligocene under an extensional tectonic regime (Charrier et al, 2002).…”
