Saline paleolake of the Cañadón Asfalto Formation (Middle-Upper Jurassic), Cerro Cóndor, Chubut province (Patagonia), Argentina
The carbonate-evaporitic sequence of the Cañadón Asfalto Formation that crops out in Cañadón Carrizal (Chubut province, Argentina) is characterized by a lacustrine facies association. This sequence includes an extensive biohermal belt, flood facies with high lake-level and low lake-level stages, and...

The carbonate-evaporitic sequence of the Cañadón Asfalto Formation that crops out in Cañadón Carrizal (Chubut province, Argentina) is characterized by a lacustrine facies association. This sequence includes an extensive biohermal belt, flood facies with high lake-level and low lake-level stages, and desiccation - evaporation facies. The biohermal belt shows three growth-stages of microbial communities. This belt controlled sedimentation in nearby areas, favoring the formation of the pan lake of Cañadón Carrizal. High lake-level flood facies represent sedimentation during periods of great water input to the pan lake. Low lake-level flood facies are characterized by low-energy conditions and by the development of a shallow lake with marginal zones and palustrine subenvironments. Desiccation facies represent a dry mudflat that borders the saline lake.
