Comments on the geologic information

  • EN EL AREA AFLORAN CALIZAS GRISES SUPRAYACIENDO A LUTITAS NEGRAS, LA ESTRATIFICACION FORMA PARTE DEL FLANCO OESTE DE UN ANTICLINAL PRESENTE. LOS ESTRATOS SEDIMENTARIOS SON ATRAVESADOS POR DIKES DIORITICOS DE POCA POTENCIA (5 A 10 M. DE ANCHO). HACIA EL SE EMPLAZA UN INTRUSIVO TONALITICO, EL CUAL HA SIDO EL CAUSANTE DE LA MINERALIZACION DE LA ZONA.
