![]() ![]() We conclude that a regional orthogonal fl exure of the Sierra Madre Oriental fold-and-thrust belt occurred at the late stage of the Laramide Orogeny and controlled: (1) change of the paleotensor, (2) a fan shaped arrangement of joints and, (3) divergence of paleostress estimated using fold axes from NNW to NE in the leading edge of the Monterrey salient. The change in orientation of the paleotensor in the central part of the Monterrey salient from NNE to approximately E-W appears to be a local effect of progressive deformation in the Monterrey salient. Macro and mesostructures suggest that mechanisms of folding are mainly fl exural shear and orthogonal fl exure at both local and regional scales. These estimates where corroborated with those from meso-scale structures. Paleostresses were determined by means of fault slip data inversion. Data were collected along a N-S trending section in the central part of the Monterrey salient.
