Abstract
Two sequences of pre-Tertiary volcano-sedimentary rocks with island arc affinities have been differentiated in the Zacazonapan area, State of Mexico. These rocks are part of the Tierra Caliente complex or the tectonostratigraphic Guerrero terrane.
The lower sequence, grouped as pre-Cretaceous metamorphic rocks, is essentially made up of about 1,500 m of carbonaceous phyllite interbedded with greenschist (chlorite-actinolite-epidote schist) and metarhyolite lenticular bodies. This package is characterized by penetrative foliation associated with recumbent tight to isoclinal folding under greenschist facies conditions...
