AB In the area of Jimena-Bedmar, in the Guadalquivir basin, the northwards displacement of the ExternalBetic units deformed the sedimentary Miocene infilling of the basin. Especially remarkable is an E-W anticlineaffecting middle-late Miocene limestones and marls. This structure is dissected by two fault sets, strikingN20º and N140º and some reverse faults. Striation and sense of shearing of minor faults in the CerroAtalaya indicate the existence of two main deformation phases. The first one is characterized by N-Scompression congruent with the orientation of regional folds and thrust kinematics. The last one ischaracterized by a roughly E-W extension that produces faults with topographic expression, as theGolondrinas and Bedmar faults. The time of the deformation ranges between the uppermost Miocene(compression) and the present (extension)
