Emplazamiento en una zona de cizalla dúctil - frágil transtensiva para el Plutón de Pájara, Fuerteventura, Islas Canarias

Abstract

The mésostructures within the host-rocks as well as the internal deformation ofthé Pájara Pluton in Fuerteventura, allow the definition of a N 5-15 E directed ductile-brittle transtensive shear-zone, that conditioned the emplacement of the intrusive core represented by this ptutonic body. We ha ve indirectly estimated an age of 22-21 Aia for this shear-zone, which is considered as coeval to the thermal metamorphism
