Resumo: The Lower Tagus Basin was subjected to several marine transgressions along the Neogene, related to positive eustatic oscillations and also controlled by the regional tectonic activity. In the Alcácer do SalSines region, previous studies identified an episode of marine sedimentation interpreted as having occurred during the late Serravalian to early Tortonian interval, based on biostratigraphic data. This episode is represented in the Alcácer do Sal Formation. The study of the SMS-12-01B borehole, drilled for mineral prospection purposes, located about 10 km NNE of Melides, allowed the identification of a 3 m thick layer of sediments containing marine fossils. 87Sr/86Sr determinations of oyster shells point to deposition about 11.5 Ma ago, validating previous proposals for the age of the formation. These data correspond to the first numerical ages obtained for the Alcácer do Sal Formation, allowing a solid correlation with other known marine units in the Lower Tagus and Algarve basins related to the same transgression episode.

Na região de Alcácer do SalSines, estudos anteriores identificaram um episódio de sedimentação marinha interpretado como tendo ocorrido durante o Serravaliano final a Tortoniano inicial, com base em dados biostratigráficos. Este episódio está representado pela Formação de Alcácer do Sal. No estudo da sondagem SMS-12-01B, efectuada para prospecção mineral e localizada a cerca de 10 km a NNE de Melides, foi identificado um nível de sedimentos com 3 m de espessura contendo fósseis marinhos. A determinação de razões isotópicas 87Sr/86Sr em conchas de ostras indica idade próxima de 11,5 Ma, validando interpretações anteriores sobre a provável idade da formação. Corresponde à primeira idade numérica obtida para esta unidade sedimentar, permitindo uma correlação sólida com outras unidades conhecidas nas bacias do Baixo Tejo e do Algarve associadas ao mesmo episódio transgressivo.LNEG2021-01-01T00:00:00Z2021-01-01T00:00:00Z2021info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10773/34260eng0873-948X10.34637/stdj-wn53Ressurreição, R.Legoinha, P.Dias, R.Santos, J.Ribeiro, S.Patinha, C.Miranda, R.info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2024-02-22T12:05:13Zoai:ria.ua.pt:10773/34260Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-20T03:05:13.639803Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
