Resumen
The epicontinental Triassic rocks outcrop to the east of Cieza (Murcia). Fieldwork has enabled to characterize the different Triassic lithostratigraphic units and Cretaceous, Jurassic and Tertiary materials that outcropping nearby. The Muschelkalk and Keuper facies, together with dolmit, ofites and a clayed gypsum unit (gypsum unit) have been identified. Facies and structural features of the gypsum unit have been studied with the purpose of understanding their formation mechanism. This study shows that both halokinesis and resedimentation mechanisms have occurred in the same time, and these two processes have produced diapiric and olistostromic facies. Nevertheless, the Triassic outcrop structure can be interpreted as a complex and deformed diapir that is controlled by the strike-slip fault of Socovos-Calasparra, which shows local resedimentation. The main diapiric movements and the Triassic redeposits could occur in this area since upper Eocene until middle Miocene.
