Sedimentary environments, overburden thickness, and sequence architecture of Vaca Muerta Fm. (a) Sedimentary environments for Early and Late Tithonian, modified after Legarreta & Uliana (1996). Facies become more distal to NW. Huincul Arch was a structural high during deposition. (b) Isopach map of Mendoza Group, modified after Cruz et al. (1996). Contours (brown curves) are in kilometres. Cumulative thicknesses of Mendoza and Rayoso Groups at five localities (open circles, labelled in metres) are from Cruz et al. (1996), Leanza et al. (1997, 2001, 2006) and Rovere et al. (2004).
