• Resumen

  • The Alpeñés anticline is a detachment fold of the Jurassic-Cretaceous cover, whose location and geometry is controlled by the Alpeñés NNE-SSW-trending basement fault. This fault constituted the southwestern margin of the Aliaga basin (lberian Chain) during the Cretaceous, with a normal movement slipping northwards and was re-activated during the Tertiary compression as a right-lateral strike-sfipreverse fault. The cumulative heave of the Alpeñés fault in the detached mesozoic cover is about 400 m, the western block being uplifted with respect to the eastem block during the mesozoic extension and tertiary inversion.
