Neogene mammal sites in Molina de Aragón (Guadalajara, Spain): correlation to other karstic sites of the Iberian chain, and their geoheritage values Morales Romero, Jorge Peláez Campomanes, Pablo Pérez Dios, Patricia Alberdi, Mª Teresa Azanza, Beatriz Pickford, Martin Ríos Ibáñez, María Sanisidro Morant, Óscar Alcalde Rincón, Gema María Cantalapiedra, Juan Fraile Gracia, Susana García Yelo, Blanca Ana Gómez Cano, Ana Rosa Hernández Ballarín, Verónica Oliver Pérez, Adriana Cantero Hernández, Enrique Valenciano Vaquero, Alberto Montoya, Plinio Corral de Lobato, a karstic site in the area of Molina de Aragón has been studied in a preliminary way. Even though there are not many Neogene karstic sites in the Iberian Chain, they occur in four clusters, with ages ranging from latest middle Miocene (MN7/8) to early Pleistocene (MN17). Correlations between these clusters and the reference stratigraphical units of the Tagus Basin, as well as with local and global events, are proposed. These karstic sites provide a complementary source of fossil vertebrate remains to that of the stratified sites formed lowland. The Heritage significance of such sites arises from the enhanced preservation of rare taxa or associations, and the operation of biotic concentrative processes. 2024-01-31T13:31:33Z 2024-01-31T13:31:33Z 2024-01-31T13:31:33Z 2018 journal article https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14352/97211 1867-2477 10.1007/s12371-018-0294-z 1867-2485 eng info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/MINECO//CGL2015-68333-P/ES/LOS YACIMIENTOS PALEONTOLOGICOS SEUDOCARSTICOS DEL CERRO DE LOS BATALLONES ( MADRID) EN EL CONTEXTO DE LOS CAMBIOS AMBIENTALES DEL MIOCENO SUPERIOR DE LAS CUENCAS CENTRO-IBERI/ Morales, J., Peláez-Campomanes, P., Pérez, P. et al.
