The Early Paleozoic history of the Cuyania (greater Precordillera) terrane of western Argentina: evidence from geochronology of detrital zircons from Middle Cambrian sandstones
(Universidad de Barcelona, 2005-01)
U-Pb geochronology of large detrital zircons populations is a powerful tool for interpreting sandstone provenance. Here, it is applied to three Middle Cambrian sandstones from the Precordillera of Argentina with the purpose ...
Middle Ordovician (Darriwilian) linguliform and craniiform brachiopods from the Precordillera (Cuyania Terrane) of West-Central Argentina
(Paleontological Society, 2016-12)
Middle Ordovician lingulacean, trematid and a craniid brachiopods are described and illustrated for the first time from the uppermost part of San Juan Formation limestones of the Precordillera Basin, west-central Argentina. ...
Conodont geothermometry of the lower Paleozoic from the Precordillera (Cuyania terrane), northwestern Argentina
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2010-03-09)
The thermal history of the Precordillera terrane of northwestern Argentina has been constrained by the conodont colour alteration index (CAI) in combination with previously published paleothermal data (e.g., illite ...
The Ordovician genus Pygodus (conodont) in the Cuyania Terrane, Argentina
(Cambridge University Press, 2016-06)
This contribution deals with the record of the Ordovician genus Pygodus in Cuyania, Argentina. Several classical sections have been sampled for conodonts in the Precordillera and the San Rafael Block, involving diverse ...
Linguliformean Brachiopods from the Las Plantas Formation (Ordovician, Sandbian), Argentine Precordillera
(Asociación Paleontológica Argentina, 2018-06)
This paper is a brief contribution to the taxonomy of the still poorly known Ordovician lingulate brachiopods of Argentina. A linguliform brachiopod fauna from the Las Plantas Formation (Sandbian, Ordovician) in the northern ...
The mafic-ultramafic belt of the Argentine Precordillera: A geological synthesis
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2021-10)
In central-western Argentina, a mafic-ultramafic belt occurs throughout the western margin of the Precordillera. This belt is interpreted as the suture zone between the Cuyania terrane and the Chilenia terrane, both accreted ...
First late Ordovician paleomagnetic pole for the Cuyania (Precordillera) terrane of western Argentina: A microcontinent or a Laurentian plateau?
(Elsevier Science, 2004-12)
Time and tectonic processes involved in docking of the Argentine Precordillera. (Cuyania terrane) against SW Gondwana has been a matter of much debate. A paleomagnetic study on the Early Caradoc Pavón Formation, exposed ...
Structural evolution of a composite middle to lower crustal section: The Sierra de Pie de Palo, northwest Argentina
(American Geophysical Union, 2011-02)
The Sierra de Pie de Palo of northwest Argentina preserves middle to lower crustal metamorphic rocks that were penetratively deformed during Ordovician accretion of the Precordillera terrane to the Gondwana margin. New ...
