THE LOWER PALEOZOIC METASEDIMENTARY BASEMENT OF THE COASTAL RANGES OF CHILE BETWEEN 25° 30' and 27° S

C.M. Bell    

Resumen

RESUMEN:El basamento sedimentario de la Cordillera de la Costa del norte de Chile (Formacion Las Tortolas), entre los 25°30' y 27°S, esta constituido por una secuencia de turbiditas distales, con intercalaciones menores de calizas y cherts pelagicos. Esta secuencia se deposito en un ambiente submarino, de planicie abisal, con paleocorrientes de direccion SEE, probablemente paralelas a un margen continental, activo, del tipo cordillerano. La edad de las sedimentitas se ubicaria en el lapso Ordovicico-Devonico y su depositacion fue acompanada por erupciones de basaltos alcalinos. Tanto las rocas sedimentarias como las volcanicas fueron deformadas y afectadas por un metamorfismo, que alcanzo hasta las facies de esquistos verdes, con anterioridad a la intrusion de monzogranitos del Permico Inferior. La existencia, en la region, de una importante zona de "melanges" tectonicos ("melange" de Chanaral) indica que este conjunto de rocas forma parte de un complejo de subduccion de probable edad paleozoica superior.
