Resumen

The main Quaternary tectonic ativity in the Huércal-Overa Basin is related to the Albox fault, which extends from Tljola in the Almanzora Corridor (SSW) to the eastern Huércal-Overa Basin (NNE), In this work an example of the effects of the fault movement both in the sediments and in the relief is presented linked to a fault segment in the Alto de Ruchete area, Analysis of deformation structures related to the main fault present in the Quaternary sediments, such as smalf and medium reverse faults, monoclinal folds, drag-folds and scarps, alfow the establishment of an evolution model during the Quaternary for the tectonic and sedimentary activity and their effects in the relief genesis.
