Peritidal Carbonate–Evaporite Sedimentation Coeval to Normal Fault Segmentation During the Triassic–Jurassic Transition, Iberian Chain

Abstract: Around the Triassic-Jurassic transition, a major tectonic rifting phase affected the northern part of the Iberian Basin (northeast Spain). Extensive normal faulting resulted in basin segmentation, as reflected by the rapid thickness and facies variation of the syn-rift, shallow-marine to supratidal carbonate-evaporite units. The upper Rhaetian-Hettangian syn-rift units exposed around the locality of Morata de Jalón (northeast Spain) provide good exposures that enable a precise sedimentological and structural a… Show more

“…Diagenetic dissolution of evaporite sequences (probably including anhydrite levels) provided ideal conditions for the formation of the widespread Hettangian collapse-breccia (e.g. Aurell et al, 2007;Bordonaba & Aurell, 2002;Gómez et al, 2007;Hernández et al, 1985;Ortí et al, 2017Ortí et al, , 2020. 6.1.3 | Remarks on the 'Jurassic-Early Cretaceous unconformities related to diapiric uplift'…”

“…Around the Triassic-Jurassic transition, intensification of extensional tectonics favoured the localized deposition (up to 200 m) of alternating peritidal limestones and evaporites (Aurell et al, 2007;Ortí et al, 2017Ortí et al, , 2020San Román & Aurell, 1992) or evaporite-dominated units, especially in the area situated close to the boundary with the Cenozoic Ebro basin (Lecera Fm; Bordonaba & Aurell, 2002). Diagenetic dissolution of evaporites contributed to the development of carbonate breccia in most parts of the region (San Román & Aurell, 1992).…”
