Resumen de Pliegues magmáticos en el plutón trondhjemítico de La Fronda, Sierras Pampeanas de Córdoba, Argentina
From structural and magnetic fabric patterns, this work reports a complex folded structure in the La Fronda pluton, a small trondhjemite massif located in the Sierras de Córdoba which form the eastern part of the Sierras Pampeanas in Argentina. Isoclinal folds with no thickening at the hinge zones deform the compositional banding of these igneous rocks. Both the orientation of axial surfaces and fold axes vary from place to place and do not concur with the orientation of folds from the metamorphic country rocks. Microstructural data point to a fabric formed by grain-supported flow in a crystal-rich magma during the imprint of a vanishing regional stress field.
