Thermometric studies form Algarrobo del Aguila granitoids, province of La Pampa

The granitic stocks of Algarrobo del Aguila, in the province of La Pampa, are assembled in "Complejo Intrusivo Algarrobo del Aguila" and they crop out in Las Matras Block forming smooth and small hills. Main outcrops of these Permian-Triassic granites are Puesto Los Cerros, Puesto Las Tina...

description The granitic stocks of Algarrobo del Aguila, in the province of La Pampa, are assembled in "Complejo Intrusivo Algarrobo del Aguila" and they crop out in Las Matras Block forming smooth and small hills. Main outcrops of these Permian-Triassic granites are Puesto Los Cerros, Puesto Las Tinajeras and Cerro Colorado. The isolated outcrops of the Chos Malal monzogranite are close to the border with the province of Mendoza.
