Evidence of a microplate in the Southern Andes?
Authors:D.A. Valencio  J.F.A. Vilas
Abstract:Paleomagnetic poles for Late Paleozoic-Early Mesozoic rocks exposed in stable and possible mobile zones of Western Argentina are reported. They suggest two interpretations.One of the interpretations suggests that a mobile zone situated at about 32.1°South 69.3°West, in the Central Andes, rotated about 60° clockwise after Late Paleozoic time.The other interpretation suggests that at least the Andean zone between 32.1° and 31.7° South is allochthonous and was situated in the Pacific, at tropical latitudes, in the Late Paleozoic. On this interpretation the accretion of this microplate to South America ocurred in Permo-Triassic times.
