Propuesta de estructura geológica para el depósito gigante de sulfuros masivos volcanogénicos de Río Tinto, Faja Pirítica Ibérica

Abstract

New field reconnaissance around the Río Tinto Mine led to a better structural knowledge on the area. The improved map support a different geological evolution on this sector determined by an earlier extensional event, which probably conditioned the mineralization processes. Later compressive poly-cyclic Variscan events developed thin-skinned tectonics
