Late Quaternary morpho-stratigraphic record of diapir rise in the Cardona salt extrusion, NE Spain. Halokinetic sequences, raised terraces and uplift rates
Active diapirism has received very limited attention from the geomorphological and Quaternary Science perspective, despite the role played by this ground deformation process in the development of landforms and sedimentary environments, and the important practical implications associated with mobile...

The Cardona salt extrusion (NE Spain) was initiated in late Quaternary times from the post-shortening unroofing of the crest of a salt anticline by the entrenchment of the transverse Cardener River. Detailed mapping, outcrop analysis, geophysical data and trenching indicate that the diapir-flanking deposits show halokinetic complexes comprising two types of morpho-stratigraphic units: (1) an older flap of coarse-grained drapefolded colluvial deposits; and (2) younger lacustrine and fluvial deposits in peripheral depressions confined between the upturned colluvial flaps and the country rock slope. These synkinematic units record an overall relief inversion and correspond to the so-called wedge and hook halokinetic sequences, recording ratios between diapir rise rate and sedimentation rate lower and greater than 1, respectively. The radiocarbon ages obtained from several raised late Holocene strath terraces carved in the salt indicate uplift rates within the range of 36.5–12.1 mm/yr, consistent with geodetic data. The spatial variability of the uplift rates can be related to increasing flow rates towards the axis of the salt wall and potential along-strike variations. The relatively high diapir rise rates observed at Cardona diapir, unaffected by contractional displacement loading (tectonic squeezing), is attributed to the youthful stage of the salt extrusion and the low dynamic viscosity of the Cardona Saline Formation, with a low proportion of impurities and a significant amount of potash saltsAquest treball ha estat desenvolupat pel Projecte DIAPERNO ( PID2021-123189NB-I00) finançat pel Govern espanyol (Ministerio de Ciencia e Innovación)Elsevier2024info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionpeer-reviewedapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10256/25395http://hdl.handle.net/10256/25395Quaternary Science Reviews, 2024, vol. 324, art. núm. 108462Articles publicats (D-CCAA)reponame:Recercat.

Active diapirism has received very limited attention from the geomorphological and Quaternary Science perspective, despite the role played by this ground deformation process in the development of landforms and sedimentary environments, and the important practical implications associated with mobile salt structures (e,g., mining, hydrocarbon production, geostorage). The Cardona salt extrusion (NE Spain) was initiated in late Quaternary times from the post-shortening unroofing of the crest of a salt anticline by the entrenchment of the transverse Cardener River. Detailed mapping, outcrop analysis, geophysical data and trenching indicate that the diapir-flanking deposits show halokinetic complexes comprising two types of morpho-stratigraphic units: (1) an older flap of coarse-grained drapefolded colluvial deposits; and (2) younger lacustrine and fluvial deposits in peripheral depressions confined between the upturned colluvial flaps and the country rock slope. These synkinematic units record an overall relief inversion and correspond to the so-called wedge and hook halokinetic sequences, recording ratios between diapir rise rate and sedimentation rate lower and greater than 1, respectively. The radiocarbon ages obtained from several raised late Holocene strath terraces carved in the salt indicate uplift rates within the range of 36.5–12.1 mm/yr, consistent with geodetic data. The spatial variability of the uplift rates can be related to increasing flow rates towards the axis of the salt wall and potential along-strike variations.
