... and the Punta del Cobre district. To support their syngenetic model, Naslund et al. (2003) further argue that between 120 to 83 Ma there was an interval with normal polarity, which would be incompatible with the reversed magnetic anomaly that led to the discovery of La Candelaria ( Ryan et al., 1995...
