An oceanic assemblage of alkaline basalts, radiolarites and polymictic breccias forms the tectonic substratum of the Santa Elena Nappe, which is constituted by extensive outcrops of ultramafic and...
Magmatic and geotectonic significance of Santa Elena Peninsula, Costa Rica (2006)
E. Gazel, P. Denyer, P. O. Baumgartner
We present a new integrated interpretation of the geochemistry and geotectonic significance of the Santa Elena Peninsula, which is divided in three units: 1) an overthrust allocthonous unit of...
Emplacement of Jurassic-Lower Cretaceous radiolarites of the Nicoya Complex (Costa Rica) (2006)
We present a new model to explain the origin, emplacement and stratigraphy of the Nicoya Complex in the NW part of the Nicoya Peninsula (Costa Rica) based on twenty-five years of field work,...

Denyer, P., Baumgartner, P.O., Gazel, E.
The Pacific face of Costa Rica and western Panama has been extensively studied because of the wide occurrence of oceanic assemblages. In Northern Costa Rica, the Santa Elena Nappe made by ultramafic...
