Caracterización sedimentológica de un nivel guía y su posible origen sísmico, Corredor del Almanzora (Almería)

A conglomeratic level intercalated in a turbiditic sequence in the Almanzora corridor (Betic Cordillera) has been mapped. This level is 3 to 15 m thick, with clasts bigger than 3 m diameter. It can be continued along 6 km, which makes it being a good key bed in the study area. The level origin has been interpreted as a collapse deposit from the southern margin of the basin, probably due to a seismic event.
