    Geochronology of the Cordillera Real granitoids, the inner magmatic arc of Bolivia

    No full text
    The Cordillera Real granitoids are a suite of Triassic and Oligocene plutons in the core of the Eastern Cordillera of the Central Andes of Bolivia. Their tectonic setting, chemical and ore compositions make them part of the so-called "Inner Magmatic Arc", which differs from the current "Magmatic Arc" located immediately to the west. U-Pb SHRIMP data were obtained in order to constrain crystallization ages. The Triassic group yielded the following results: 239±2 Ma for the Huato granite, 231±1 Ma for the Illampu granodiorite, 221±3 Ma for the Huayna Potosí granite and 223±2 Ma for the Taquesi granodiorite. For the Oligocene group we obtained ages of 27 Ma for two samples of the Quimsa Cruz granite. Secondary processes related to regional thermal anomalies and magmatic melt-enrichment, reset the K-Ar and U-Pb isotopic systems, producing: a) younger ages by Ar loss and b) anomalous data plot in the Concordia diagram by reorganization of U-Pb isotopic ratios. As noted in previous studies, most zircon analysed from the Zongo/Kuticucho Triassic granite exhibited extremely high U enrichment, producing reverse discordia curves that obscure the true crystallization age. Relatively abundant zircon inheritance was found in these "cold" granitoids, with ages suggesting provenance from early Paleozoic metapelites that also contained recycled older sources. This relatively abundant xenocrystic inheritance probably records the influence of the subduction process acting during the Gondwanide orogeny (336-205 Ma) as an overall subduction arc environment, punctuated at its final stage with the imprint of a continental rifting (245-220 Ma).pp.403-44

    The likely Quaternary active El Arrayán fault, Santiago, Chile

    No full text
    Understanding the location and nature of Quaternary active crustal faults is critical to the reduction of both fault rupture and strong ground motions hazards in built environments. Recent work along the San Ramón Fault (SRF) demonstrates that crustal seismic sources are important hazards within the Santiago Metropolitan region of Chile. In this paper, we present the evidence of a second likely Quaternary active fault (the El Arrayán Fault, EAF) that runs through the northeastern part of Santiago, in the Lo Barnechea area. The EAF is a strike-slip fault zone at least 13 kmlong, has a steep dip (mean dip 77º NNE), and a WNW-ESE general trend (~110º) that cuts across folded rocks of the Abanico Formation and Quaternary deposits. Sequences of meter-wide fault rocks in El Arrayán area are coincident with the tectonic geomorphology of the EAF, with fault scarps, deflected streams, saddles, "island hills", sag ponds and linear valleys in the La Dehesa area and coincident with fault strike from the bedrock exposures. Although direct dating is not yet available, fault exposures tied to fault-related tectonic and geomorphic features that crosscut Late-Quaternary morphologies and deposits (including hillslopes, ridges, landslides and alluvial fans), provides strong evidence that the EAF is a Quaternary active and seismogenic crustal fault. Sinistral slickensides and left-lateral deflected streams indicates a left-lateral kinematics (with slight up to the north reverse motion) for the EAF. Due to the location, geometry, kinematics and likely Quaternary activity of the EAF, this structure is interpreted as an arc-oblique transfer zone of the West Andean Thrust (WATS). If the EAF has stick-slip behaviour, it is potentially an important source of fault rupture and strong ground motions and could be responsible for earthquakes up to Mw 6.4 based on earthquake scaling laws and microseismicity observations in and around Santiago. The lack of fault zone avoidance criteria (i.e., do not build in and around active faults) in Chilean law, requires immediate enhanced fault mapping, legislation and the implementation of active fault rupture avoidance areas to reduce the risk associated with active crustal structures in the built environment.pp.529-54
