This contribution addresses new structural data from Upper Cretaceous-Danian sedimentary rocks of the Fuegian Andes orogenic front in Argentina. The structures studied, called D0 , were formed during the early foreland deformation of the orogen, in the Late Cretaceous-Danian, in times when South Ame...
