Abstract
Se ha realizado un análisis estructural de los materiales paleozoicos,
principalmente carboníferos, del sector NW del Macizo de Montalbán
(Teruel).A partir de la caracterización geométrica y cinemática de los materiales
deformados, se ha identificado una secuencia de tres etapas de deformación
hercínicas, que incluye: 1) etapa D1 de intenso aplastamiento con
desarrollo de pliegues tumbados de orientación NW-SE y esquistosidad de
plano axial, 2) etapa D2 con desarrollo de pliegues vergentes y esquistosidad
de crenulación y 3) etapa D3 con formación de pliegues flexurales sin
esquistosidad asociada. La actual disposición de las estructuras mesoscópicas
hercínicas es resultado del plegamiento alpino flexural del conjunto
A structural analysis of the Paleozoic materials,mainly Carboniferous, of the NW sector of the Montalbán Massif (Teruel) was performed. From the geometric and kinematic characterization of deformed rocks, a sequence of three Hercynian deformation stages has been encountered, including: 1) A intense flattening stage (D1) with associated recumbent cleavage-related folds, 2) a flexural and flattening stage (D2) with inclined folds and crenulation cleavage and 3) stage D3 with flexural folds without –cleavage development. The present-day disposition of the Hercynian mesoscopic structures is the result of the alpine flexural folding
