Mountain building in the Andes, the longest continental mountain range on Earth, started in
the Late Cretaceous but was highly diachronous. Reconstructing the timing of surface uplift …

For many years, the geometry, kinematic, and the age of the basement‐involved structures
of the Pre‐Andean basins of northern Chile have been debated. Even, many tectonic …

Decoding the earliest orogenic stages in the Andes, the largest subduction orogen on Earth
is fundamental to understanding changes in climate, drainage organization, and biodiversity …

Filo del Sol is a composite porphyry-epithermal deposit, straddling the frontier between
Argentina and Chile at latitude 28° 29′ S, that has attracted a great deal of recent attention …

Seamounts and ridges are often invoked to explain subduction‐related phenomena such as
flat slab generation, but the extent of their involvement remains controversial. An analysis of …

The Josemaría porphyry copper-gold deposit is located in the Frontal Cordillera of San Juan
Province, Argentina, near the present-day northern limit of the Chilean-Pampean flat-slab …

The Andean orogenic belt, located in the Central Andes “Pampean flat-slab” segment in
northern Chile (27–29° S), is composed of two major tectonic regions: the Coastal Cordillera …

Abstract The Central Andean Forearc (26° S) structure has been debated for decades.
Extension, contraction, and strike-slip deformation are commonly proposed mechanisms to …

Andean fold-and-thrust belts (FTBs) in the western border of South America show important
along-strike variations in their structural style (thin-or thick-skinned) and shortening …

We integrated new field observations, two‐dimensional (2‐D) seismic profiles and new and
previously reported chronological data to understand the effects of pre‐orogenic structures …
