A detailed geological map of 118 fault traces that form the Rio Maro Fault Zone (Malaga, Spain) has been carried out, emphasizing their geometric and kinematics characteristics. Several fault population analysis methods have been applied among them the right dihedra method, and the slip model have been utilized to establish the stress axes orientations (stress tensors) and to calculate the orientations of the maximum horizontal shortening and extension directions. Data have been analyzed to the whole population and discriminating the faults by orientations. Modelling of this fault population shows a dextral pull-apart in which specific fault orientations can influence the genesis of karstic cavities of Cueva de Nerja type
