“…In the Atacama Basin area, this mountain building stage is recorded as a strong angular unconformity between the Co. Tótola Fm. and the Paleocene Naranja Fm., and by coetaneous rapid cooling (65 to 50 Ma) of neighboring igneous bodies(Andrienssen and Reuter, 1994, Mpodozis et al, 2005, Jordan et al, 2007 (Fig. 10B).…”

“…1a), which combining reflection seismic and outcrop data, show that it formed as a consequence of tectonic inversion of a Jurassic-Early Cretaceous back-arc basin within a continuous contractional regime in the Cordillera de Domeyko from mid-Cretaceous through Paleogene times (Muñoz et al, 2002;Mpodozis et al, 2005;Arriagada et al, 2006a;Jordan et al, 2007). It has been proposed that the main structural style of the Cordillera de Domeyko is strongly dependent on 'inherited structures', and that the shortening is due to reactivation of pre-existing extensional faults related to Triassic and Late Jurassic-Early Cretaceous rifts (Amilibia et al, 2008).…”

“…Although evidence of tectonic shortening and mountain building between the Late Cretaceous and the Tertiary seems reasonably well documented for the Andes of northern Chile (Moscoso and Mpodozis, 1988;Maksaev and Zentilli, 1999;Mpodozis et al, 2005;Arriagada et al, 2006a;Jordan et al, 2007;Amilibia et al, 2008), the complex interactions between extensional and compressional structures remain unresolved. Consequently, so far consistent evidence has not been shown to account for the structural style of the superposed Tertiary inversion.…”

“…The stratigraphic record of foreland basins is generally very complete (Jordan 1995), and shortening, mountain building and the initiation of the Andean foreland basin started in Late Cretaceous-Paleocene times (Balkwill 1995;DeCelles & Horton 2003;Barragan et al 2005;Martin-Gombojav & Winkler 2008 and references therein). South of 22°S, although debated (see Jordan et al 2007 and references therein), the Andean foreland basin initiated in the CretaceousEarly Tertiary (Arriagada et al 2006) and migrated eastwards throughout the Paleogene (Carrapa & DeCelles 2008). In southern Bolivia, the Andean foreland basin defi nes a four-component foreland basin system (wedge-top, foredeep, forebulge and backbulge therefore they provide ample information on the geometry of thrust sheets, ages of movement on particular thrust sheets, rheology of the lithosphere, drainage history, denudation history, slab subduction rate and dip history, and climate history .…”
