Abstract:

The areas marginal to main glaciated centers are appropriate sites to distinguish the record of glacioeustatic sea level fluctuations. The Late Paleozoic basins of western Argentina show a marginal position with respect to the glaciated areas of eastern South America (Brazil). In three of these basins (Tarija, Calingasta-Uspallata and Central Patagonian) widespread glacial-marine diamictites and their gravity-reworked counterparts pass upward to open-marine fine clastics (mudstones, shales and scarce fine sandstones) with fossils of the Levipustula zone of Middle Carboniferous (Late Namurian-Westphalian) age. The presence of fine-grained marine sequences capping the diamictitic deposits is interpreted as the sedimentary response to a glacioeustatic sea level rise, expressed as a transgression in stratigraphic terms. The glacioeustatic nature of this sea level rise is confirmed by the interbasinal, facies-based correlation of the transgressive episode and the paleolatitudinal positioning of this portion of Gondwanaland during Carboniferous times. © 1989.
