摘要: THE rotation of Iberia and its relation to the formation Pyrenees has been difficult decipher because lack detailed sea-floor spreading data, although several models have proposed1–7. Here we use aeromagnetic measurements from sea floor offshore Grand Banks Newfoundland show that moved as part African plate late Cretaceous mid-Eocene time, with a boundary extending westward Bay Biscay. When motion along this ceased, linking extension in King's Trough compression came into existence. Finally, since Oligocene, Eurasian plate, between Eurasia Africa situated Azores–Gibraltar fracture zone.
