Resumen
Between the Sierra de Ponce and the Peñarrubia-Castellar mountain ranges deposits of blocks-in-clay are found. Within it can be differenciate three main facies: matrix with clasts, mixedblocks-in-clay, and blocks with scarce matrix. The formation of this deposit took place during the middle Burdigalian and was sealed by lower langhian marls. El Francés Chaotic Complexcan be interpreted as a collisional melange of the Subbetic.
