Evolución del flujo de fluidos desde la extensión Mesozoica hasta la compresión alpina en los cinturones de pliegues y cabalgamientos del Gran Cáucaso y Adjara-Trialeti, SW de Georgia

Abstract

La historia tectónica de la región del Cáucaso desde el Mesozoico hasta la actualidad incluye la apertura de una serie de cuencas extensivas de retroarco e intracontinentales a lo largo del margen sur de la Placa Euroasiática como respuesta a la subducción hacia el norte del Neo-Tetis debajo de Eurasia. Posteriormente, la colisión Arabia-Eurasia se tradujo en la inversión tectónica de estas cuencas de rift. La cuenca del Gran Cáucaso se desarrolló desde el Triásico como una cuenca extensiva marina profunda, flanqueada por la Plataforma Escita al norte y el macizo de Dzirula al sur. A partir del Cretácico, se formó una segunda cuenca marina profunda al sur del macizo de Dzirula, la cuenca Adjara-Trialeti. La inversión tectónica durante Cenozoico tardío de estas cuencas dio como resultado el levantamiento de los cinturones de pliegues y cabalgamientos del Gran Cáucaso y de Adjara-Trialeti, que actualmente se sitúan en el norte y el sur de Georgia, respectivamente. En este trabajo, presentamos datos preliminares del sistema de fluidos de estos dos cinturones compresivos para mejorar nuestra comprensión sobre las condiciones en que se formaron y determinar la edad absoluta de la actividad tectónica. Presentamos datos estructurales de fracturas, de termometría de Clumped Isotopes y de geocronología U-Pb de cementos de calcita precipitados en fracturas. Los resultados de este estudio de interdisciplinar indican el origen de los fluidos, cambios en la interacción fluido-roca y la edad de la deformación tectónica.

The complex Mesozoic-to-present tectonic history of the Caucasus region includes the opening of several intracontinental back-arc extensional basins along the southern edge of the Eurasian continental plate as a response to the northward subduction of the Neo-Tethys beneath Eurasia, followed by the Arabia- Eurasia collision and the tectonic inversion of these intracontinental extensional basins. The Greater Caucasus Basin developed as a deep-marine extensional basin since the Triassic, flanked by the Scythian Platform to the north and the Dzirula Massif to the south. Since the Cretaceous, a second deep-marine basin formed south of the Dzirula Massif, the Adjara-Trialeti Basin. Late Cenozoic tectonic inversion of these basins resulted in the uplift of the Greater Caucasus and Adjara-Trialeti fold-and-thrust belts, situated in today northern and southern Georgia, respectively. In this work, we undertake an extensive investigation of the fluid system in both the Greater Caucasus and Adjara-Trialeti fold-and-thrust belts to improve our understanding of the conditions and the timing of tectonic activity. We present structural field data, clumped isotope thermometry results, and U-Pb calcite ages from carbonate veins of both fold-and-thrust belts. Preliminary results of this multi-proxy study reveal the source and temperature of fluids, variations in the fluid-rock interaction, and the timing of tectonic deformation.
