“…In contractional systems, salt is either preserved as squeezed diapirs (e.g., Callot et al., 2012), along thrust welds (e.g., Hossack, 1995; Vidal‐Royo et al., 2021), at the base of the thrust sheets (e.g., Davis & Engelder, 1985; Hudec & Jackson, 2006), and under certain conditions, as allochthonous salt sheets (e.g., Hudec & Jackson, 2006; Rowan, 2017). Upon shortening, the existence and rejuvenation of pre‐existing salt bodies represent efficient channels to evacuate salt from the bodies themselves and the source layer to the surface (Callot et al., 2012; Ferrer, 2012; Nilsen et al., 1995; Roca et al., 2006; Rowan & Vendeville, 2006; Santolaria, Ferrer, et al., 2021).…”
