Covaultn nDepartment of Geological & Environmental Sciences, Stanford University, Stanford, CA, USA wChevron EnergyTechnology Company, Clastic Stratigraphy R&D, San Ramon, CA, USA zDepartment of Geoscience, University of Calgary,Calgary,AB, Canada ABSTRACT An integrated provenance analysis of the Upper Cretaceous Magallanes retroarc foreland basin of southern Chile (501300^521S) provides new constraints on source area evolution, regional patterns of sediment dispersal and depositional age. Over 450 new single-grain detrital-zircon U-Pb ages, which are integrated with sandstone petrographic and mudstone geochemical data, provide a comprehensive detrital record of the northern Magallanes foreland basin- ¢lling succession (44000- m-thick). Prominent peaks in detrital-zircon age distribution among the Punta Barrosa, CerroToro, TresPasos andDoroteaFormations indicate thatthe incorporation and exhumation ofUpperJurassic igneous rocks (ca.147^155Ma) into the Andean fold-thrust belt was established in the Santonian (ca. 85 Ma) andwas a signi¢cant source of detritus to the basin by the Maastrichtian (ca.70 Ma). Sandstone compositional trends indicate an increase in volcanic and volcaniclastic grains upward through the basin ¢ll corroborating the interpretation of an unroo¢ng sequence. Detrital-zircon ages indicate that the Magallanes foredeep received young arc-derived detritus throughout its ca. 20 m.y.¢lling history,constraining the timing of basin- ¢lling phases previously based only on biostratigraphy.

  • Detrital Thermochronologic Record of Burial Heating and Sediment Recycling in the Magallanes Foreland Basin, Patagonian Andes Julie C

Fosdick,* Marty Grove,† Stephan A. Graham,† Jeremy K. Hourigan,‡ Oscar Lovera§ and Brian W. Romans¶ *Geological Sciences, Indiana University, Bloomington, IN, USA †Geological & Environmental Sciences, Stanford University, Stanford, CA, USA ‡Earth Sciences, University of California, Santa Cruz, CA, USA §Earth & Space Sciences, University of California, Los Angeles, CA, USA ¶Geosciences, Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University, Blacksburg, VA, USA ABSTRACT The Patagonian Magallanes retroarc foreland basin affords an excellent case study of sediment burial recycling within a thrust belt setting. We report combined detrital zircon U–Pb geochronology and (U–Th)/He thermochronology data and thermal modelling results that confirm delivery of both rap- idly cooled, first-cycle volcanogenic sediments from the Patagonian magmatic arc and recycled sedi- ment from deeply buried and exhumed Cretaceous foredeep strata to the Cenozoic depocentre of the Patagonian Magallanes basin. We have quantified the magnitude of Eocene heating with thermal models that simultaneously forward model detrital zircon (U–Th)/He dates for best-fit thermal his- tories. Our results indicate that 54–45 Ma burial of the Maastrichtian Dorotea Formation produced 164–180 °C conditions and heating to within the zircon He partial retention zone. Such deep burial is unusual for Andean foreland basins and may have resulted from combined effects of high basal heat flow and high sediment accumulation within a rapidly subsiding foredeep that was floored by basement weakened by previous Late Jurassic rifting.

Basement inheritance and Foreland basin progressive shallowing of an east-dipping subducting slab are important mechanisms of foreland partitioning, as Provenance dictated by the preexisting (pre-Andean) structural architecture and forelandward (eastward) advance of Late U-Pb geochronology Cretaceous arc magmatism. Previously recognized growth strata help define the timing of fold-thrust belt Hf isotopes shortening and retroarc basement-involved uplift, but the precise consequences for sediment routing remain poorly understood, with uncertainties in patterns of basin evolution before, during, and after shallowing and resteepening of the subducting slab.

The Andes is part of a long- lived continental margin characterized by multiple tectonic cycles which have strongly modified the Andean upper plate architecture. In the Andean retroarc, spatiotemporal variations in the structure of the upper plate and tectonic regimes have resulted in marked along-strike variations in basin geometry, stratigraphy, deformational style, and mountain belt morphology. These along-strike variations include high-elevation plateaus (Altiplano and Puna) associated with a thin-skin fold-and-thrust-belt and thick- skin deformation in broken foreland basins such as the Santa Barbara system and the Sierras Pampeanas.

Here we report ∼1200 new single- Available online 17 September 2011 zircon U–Pb geochronological analyses from 19 Proterozoic rock samples of northwestern South America collected from the Garzón and Las Minas Andean cordilleran inliers, drill-core samples from the foreland Keywords: basin basement, and outcrops of cratonic Amazonia in eastern Colombia (western Guyana shield). Our South America Amazonia new geochronological results document the existence of a previously unrecognized Meso- to Neoprotero- zoic orogenic belt buried under the north Andean foreland basins, herein termed the Putumayo Orogen, Putumayo Orogen Rodinia which has implications for Proterozoic tectonic reconstructions of Amazonia during the assembly of the Grenville supercontinent Rodinia.
