| Sumario: | A stratigraphic unit deposited close to the Messinian-Pliocene boundary is newly discovered in the Malaga basin. This unit mainly consist of alluvial and lagoonal deposits. Paleontological and paleomagnetic data from these deposits and from the overlying sediments indicate that the former were formed in the latest Miocene, thus can be correlated with the so-called Lago Mare deposits. The latest Messinian and lower Pliocene deposits are separated by an erosive surface (latest-Messinian discontinuity) that is related to a relative sea-level fall previous to the earliest Pliocene general flooding |
