The Paleozoic-Triassic Patagonian basins, at present comprising the Andean hinterland and structural basement of active basins, document a pre-Jurassic evolution associated with accretionary processes at the paleo-Pacific convergent margin. The Early Cambrian basins constitute the earliest record fo...
