Estimacion de acortamiento en pliegues chevron que han experimentado deformacion post flexion

Revista Mexicana de Ciencias Geológicas (2019)

Alberto Vásquez-Serrano Gustavo Tolson Elisa Fitz-Díaz Peter J. Hudleston

Los pliegues son estructuras geológicas que se presentan en muchos medios geológicos. Analizar su geometría nos permite obtener una aproximación de la deformación que acomodaron. Los pliegues tipo chevron son útiles para hacer estimaciones de acortamiento en sistemas orogénicos debido a su particular geometría. A pesar de esto, no se ha propuesto un método para calcular la deformación total (dinámica y cinemática) que experimentan estas estructuras. En el presente trabajo se expone un método para el cálculo del acortamiento en pliegues chevron que han sufrido una deformación post flexión o post pandeo, el cual toma como base el modelo propuesto por Ramsay en 1974. El método propuesto es conceptualmente sencillo y general, lo que permite su aplicación para estimar el acortamiento en sistemas orogénicos alrededor del mundo.

Key Points Transverse-to-the-orogen faults may also participate in slip partitioning resulting from oblique subduction We implement a forward 3-D model of Andean subduction to simulate interseismic and coseismic deformation We constrain kinematics, slip rate, and seismic hazard associated with differently oriented regional faults

Cartografía geológica para la gestión del geopatrimonio y la planeación de rutas geoturísticas: aplicación en el Geoparque Mundial de la UNESCO Comarca Minera, Hidalgo

Terra Digitalis (2017)

Carles Canet Juan Carlos Mora-Chaparro A. Iglesias Miguel Á. Cruz-Pérez Erika Salgado-Martínez

La Comarca Minera de Hidalgo (México) es desde mayo de 2017 un Geoparque Mundial de la UNESCO; dicha denominación se justifica por un geopatrimonio de relevancia internacional que incluye: (a) el sistema epitermal (Ag‒Au) de clase mundial de Pachuca‒Real del Monte; (b) la localidad tipo de la tridimita y la cristobalita; (c) los basaltos con disyunción columnar de Huasca de Ocampo (conocidos como Prismas Basálticos de Santa María Regla); y (d) el patrimonio industrial minero, que comprende vestigios prehispánicos y haciendas de beneficio coloniales. El geoparque se articula alrededor de una red de 31 geositios cuyo propósito general es la geoconservación y el aprovechamiento turístico y educativo del geopatrimonio. El mapa geoturístico del geoparque, presentado en esta contribución, se ha elaborado con el fin de que sea usado como un recurso educativo y, además, como una herramienta para la catalogación, aprovechamiento y conservación de la geodiversidad.

Estimación de desplazamiento mínimo en fallas inversas de alto ángulo: Caso de estudio en la Falla de San Marcos, Coahuila

Boletín de la Sociedad Geológica Mexicana (2020)

Fausto l Alonso-Manue Elisa Fitz-Díaz Rodrigo Gutiérrez-Navarro

The San Marcos fault (SMF) cuts across Coahuila state along a NW-SE trend.This long-lived structure is part of a Middle Jurassic normal fault system, with a Late Jurassic reactivation, which constrained the deposition of Early Cretaceous red beds and carbonate deposits and was reactivated as reverse fault during Paleogene.The SMF coincides with the northwestern boundary of the Coahuila platform, with its best exposure at Las Palomas village.The Cupido Formation thrust over pelagic limestone, in a locality which was studied in detail and informally referred as Cerro La Bruja beds (CCLB).This unit correlates with the Eagle Ford Formation (EFF) in the Sabinas Basin to the north and with the Indidura Formation in the Parras Basin, to the south, all of Turonian age.The CCLB are involved in kilometer scale folding in both basins.However, these rocks are sub-horizontal in the Coahuila platform, where they were shortened only 400 m in the closest position to the SMF, showing chevron folds within a deformation wedge limited by a basal fault separating folded rocks from unfolded rocks underneath.Near the fault plane and along the thicker portion of the wedge, folds are tighter compared to the furthermost portion.Based on a detailed fold shortening analysis in the CCLB, a horizontal shortening of about 500 meters was estimated for these beds.If we assume that only one folding generation is present in the CCLB and that this shortening event was the result of the SMF activity, we propose a new method to estimate the minimum displacement on the frontal fault, which considers folds of CCLB and the fault plane inclination.A minimum displacement of 1300 m is calculated along the fault plane, showing consistency with estimations of at least 3000 m suggested by previous authors for the entire fault system.Fault displacement estimates have always been a challenge in structural analysis, and that is the reason why we consider that our new method has potential to become a valuable tool in fault kinematic analysis.
