The picture shows an anticlinal vertical axis crease in lower Cretaceous materials whose deposits are the consequence of marine transgression which formed a shallow carbonated platform in the Iberian basin, south of the Ebro Massif, where communities of foraminifera, mollusks and echinoderms growed up.
