Tectonic model for the latest Triassic-Early Jurassic extensional event in and around the Iberian Peninsula

An array of 200-Ma-old (Lower Jurassic) dolerite dikes in both the eastern and western sides of the Atlantic records an episode of SE directed extension which occurred in and around the Iberian Peninsula. This extensional regime episode is responsible for the formation of the main structures in the...

Sumario:An array of 200-Ma-old (Lower Jurassic) dolerite dikes in both the eastern and western sides of the Atlantic records an episode of SE directed extension which occurred in and around the Iberian Peninsula. This extensional regime episode is responsible for the formation of the main structures in the Iberian Peninsula and neighboring areas at the beginning of the Jurassic.
