Abstract


We argue about micro and macrostructural data published in the paper in question supporting the hypothesis of some compressive regime being present in the Iberian Chain during the Miocene; at the same time, new data from other localities are presented. All these allow us to design a model of stress field characterized by a near N-S horizontal compression axis. After the LowerMiddle Miocene, E to ESE regional extension linked to the rifting of the eastern margin of the Iberian Peninsula is superposed. As a consequence, each point within the resulting stress field can register either compressive or extensive stress states at different times.
