Resumen:
The Gastre fault system: e par si muove. The Gastre Fault System (SFG) in
central Patagonia is a major shear zone and geological boundary. A review of
the characteristics of the SFG system is presented, with emphasis on the
paleogeographic hypothesis associated with the early Mesozoic activity that
preceded the break-up of Gondwana. On the other side, the episodic reactivation
of the SFG during the whole Meso-Cenozoic is well documented, raising severe
geological constrains for the feasibility of the Gastre area as a suitable site
for a radioactive waste disposal reservoir.
