Resumen:
The Puesto El Moro Formation (Upper Cretaceous) was originally considered as a continental succession overlying the Piedra Clavada Formation. This unit is exposed in the region of Lake San Martin, near the homonymous Outpost belonging to the Estancia La Lila. The Puesto El Moro Formation is coeval with the Mata Amarilla Formation; both formations are of great interest because they mark the onset of the foreland stage of the Austral Basin. A detailed sedimentological logging at the type locality allows the identification of three main intervals.
