An Entity of Type: SpatialThing, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Caldera Basin (Spanish: Cuenca de Caldera) is a sedimentary basin located in the coast of northern Chile west of Copiapó. The basin has a fill of marine sediments of Late Cenozoic age. With a north-south extension of 43 kilometres (27 mi) and an east-west width of 20 kilometres (12 mi) the basin occupies an area between the coast and the Chilean Coast Range and between the port of Caldera and the mouth of Copiapó River. The sedimentary fill rests on metamorphic rocks of Paleozoic age and on plutonic rocks of Mesozoic age.

  • La Cuenca de Caldera es una cuenca sedimentaria ubicada en la costa del norte de Chile, al oeste de Copiapó, en la comuna de Caldera. La cuenca está llena de sedimentos marinos de la era del Cenozoico tardío. Con una extensión norte-sur de 43 kilómetros (27 mi) y un ancho este-oeste de 20 kilómetros (12 mi), la cuenca ocupa un área entre la costa y la Cordillera de la Costa de Chile, y entre el puerto de Caldera y la desembocadura del río Copiapó. El relleno sedimentario descansa sobre rocas metamórficas de la era paleozoica y sobre rocas plutónicas de la era mesozoica.​ (es)
