Resumen

We describe and study structural evidences concerning to Alpine tectonics at NE sector of the Spanish Central System (SCS). In Valdesotos area, the Hercynian basement is uplifted over Mesozoic sediments, throughout a main SW verging thrust. Fault population analysis and geological mappinghas been used to look at the relation between structures in the basement and in the cover. As a consequence of accommodation of strains in the basement, kink folds are developed, such as secondary thrust and folds in the tegument. All these meso- and macrostructures seem to answer to ashortening in agreement with the Cenozoic deformation.
