Superimposed Variscan and Alpine deformation in the basement rocks of southern Andorra, central Pyrenees

Aina Margalef Porcar,
Pablo Granado,
Josep Maria Casas

Abstract: Detailed mapping, structural analysis and cross-section constructions yield new data on the geometry and chronology of Variscan and Alpine deformations in the central Pyrenees of southern Andorra. The studied area is characterized by polyphase deformation and strain partitioning due to the presence of an efficient décollement level within Silurian black shales. Variscan macrostructures gave rise to a minimum shortening of ca. 22% for Cambrian-Ordovician and Upper Ordovician units below … Show more
