Located in the centre of the Argentinean Patagonia between 46° and 49°S, the Deseado Region represents the foreland domain of the Southern Patagonian Andes. Its geology is characterized by thick Mesozoic sequences which, at its eastern sector, present a Mesozoic and Cenozoic geologic evolution which has been strongly determined by the development o...

Se describen las características geométricas y cinemáticas de las estructuras que se observan en la región de Los Menucos, en la parte norte del macizo nordpatagónico, caracterizada por extensos afloramientos de rocas volcánicas e intrusivas y sedimentarias del Triásico. Estas estructuras son fallas de rumbo O-E, cuyas longitudes superan los 120 km...

This paper describes the geometry, kinematic and geologic relationships of the structures of the Los Menucos region, in the northern part of the Northpatagonian Massif that is characterized for the extensive outcrops of Late Triassic volcanic rocks accompanied by intrusive and sedimentary rocks. Their structure are characterized by large (>120 km)...

Important precious metal deposits have been discovered during the last 10 years in the Deseado Massif region of Patagonia, Argentina. This region is a plateau consisting of Middle to Upper Jurassic volcanic rocks that host fracture-controlled epithermal Au–Ag mineralization. These mineral deposits represent low sulfidation type hydrothermal systems...
