The tectono-sedimentary evolution of synrift supra-detachment basins in distal rifted margins,examples of the Samedan basin (central alps, SE Switzerland) and the Mauléon basin (Western pyrenees SW France)
Le rifting continental est un processus polyphasé conduisant non seulement à la création de blocs basculés dans les marges proximales mais également à la mise en place de systèmes de failles de détachement dans les marges dites distales . Les failles dOne of the most effective geodynamical processes creating sedimentary basins is the continental rifting. Investigations performed in deep magma-poor rifted margins showed that the crust can be extremely extended and associated with low-angle detachment f
