Resumo

La estratigrafía del intervalo sedimentario correspondiente al Keuper, Triásico, y al Lías basal ha atraído históricamente mucho menos interés que los sedimentos adyacentes del Muschelkalk y Buntsandstein, y del Lías Inferior y Medio. Se ha confeccionado una correlación de 12 sondeos profundos del área de La Mancha para mostrar la distribución de facies de estas formaciones, así como su ordenación en secuencias sedimentarias. Los datos de pozo muestran la existencia de secuencias evaporíticas complejas y multiepisódicas en la unidad inferior K1, de carácter más salino, y en la unidad superior K4-K5, relativamente más anhidrítica. El episodio clástico correspondiente a las unidades K2-K3 está extendido en toda la zona, con varias áreas preferenciales de acumulación de arenas. La unidad K6, la más alta del Keuper, constituye un excelente nivel guía. La sedimentación continúa en el Lías basal con otra potente unidad evaporítica, la Zona de Anhidrita, que muestra un episodio salino muy signifi cativo en la parte central de la correlación. Es de resaltar la buena correlación que existe entre los afl oramientos y las sondeos para estas formaciones.

The Stratigraphy of the Triassic Keuper and the lowermost Liassic sedimentary interval has historically attracted much less attention than the adjacent sediments of Muschelkalk and Buntsandstein, and Lower to Middle Lias. A twelve wells correlation, along a cross-section of the La Mancha area, has been prepared to demonstrate the arrangement of facies in these formations, as well as their respective ordering in sedimentary sequences. Well data show the existence of complex multistage thick evaporitic sequences in the lower and more saline K1 unit, and in the upper and relatively more anhydritic K4-K5 units. A clastic episode, K2-K3 units, extends across the zone with several sand rich fairways. The topmost Keuper K6 unit is a very good marker. Sedimentation continued upwards, lowermost Lias, with a thick evaporitic section, the Anhydrite Zone, which has a signifi cant halite episode in the central part of the cross-section. It is remarkable the good correlation existing between outcrops and well data, for these formations.
