Abstract:

The Santa Lucía Basin (Uruguay): a Jurassic-Cretaceous dextral transtensive pull-apart. The Santa Lucía Basin is located on the Precambrian cratonic area in the south-south-eastern part of Uruguay. From surface and subsurface data (NS trending seismic lines and wells) the Santa Lucía Basin is interpreted as being a 150 km long 45 km wide, rombohedral- shaped pull-apart basin (subparallel to the Atlantic South American plate margin). It shows a transtensive ENE and E-W framework of discontinuities formed by dextral wrenching and listric normal growth-faults. Its architecture is characterized by two different and asymmetric depocentres (north and south) separated by the central and elongate Santa Rosa High, which extends subparallel to the longest margins of the basin. The Santa Lucía Basin contains 2,450 m of Upper Jurassic to Cenozoic volcano-sedimentary rocks. The lower part of the sequence starts with scarce basaltic and rhyolithic volcanic eruptive rocks interbedded with coarse sediments. They associated with a dextral transtensional regime (controlled by old cratonic discontinuities). These are followed by a thick sequence of syn-rift sedimentary rocks (mainly Albian) deposited in a pull- apart regime. During the Senonian, the sedimentation changed to that of a siliciclastic post-rift sequence. Finally, a localised thin sequence of siliciclastic Oligocene (and younger) sediments covered both the basin and the basement unconformably. The genesis and the tectonic evolution of the Santa Lucía Basin was associated with the early opening of the Atlantic Ocean, controlled initially by old structures of the Gondwanan crystalline basement. This tectono-sedimentary history, the Andean reactivation of the ENE dextral strike-slip structures, and the spatial connections between the Santa Lucía Basin and the southernmost basins of Salado and Punta del Este, and with the northern Laguna Merin Basin are discussed.
