RT Journal Article T1 Incremento lateral hacia el Oeste del grado diagenètico en el Maastrichtiense medio del Arco Vasco: evidencias en inocerámidos y roca encajante T1 Lateral westward increase of the diagenetíc degree in the mid-Maastrichtian from the Basque Arc: inoceramid and host-rock evidence A1 Gómez Alday, Juan José A1 Elorza, Javier AB Inoceramid bivalve shells and host-rock samples from the mid-Maastrichtian carbonate rocks have been collected at Sopelana, Zumaya, San Sebastián, Loyaand Bidart sections (So-Zu-Ss-Lo-Bi), corresponding to the Basque Arc Domain. The main purpose was to determinate the progressive post-depositional changes suffered by the shells together with the marl and marly-limestone beds. Petrography, scanning electron microscope (SEM) and cathodoluminiscence (CL) observations, as well as oxygen and carbon isotopic values show that calcite prisms, which form the shell microstructure, have undergone a more intense diagenetic modification in the western (Sopelana section) than in the eastern areas (Bidart section) of the Basque Arc, without any substantial textural changes in the prismatic microstructure PB Sociedad Geológica de España YR 1997 FD 1997 LK http://hdl.handle.net/10272/10314 UL http://hdl.handle.net/10272/10314 LA spa DS Repositorio Institucional de la Universidad de Huelva RD 31 may 2026
