The Higuer-Getaria Formation, which appears along the Gipuzkoa coastline between Cap Higuer and Zumaia, comprises an Eocene turbiditic succession which is more than 2.500 m thick. At the eastern outcrops the unit is mainly constituted by thick sandstone layers, very resistant to erosional processes, which is know as the Jaizkibel Mountain, an orographic element which is 543 m at it’s highest point. These deposits, defined as Higuer-Getaria Formation, have two main turbiditic systems which are partly contemporaneous, named Cabo highest point and Abra de Pasajes, and are included in the Discoaster binodosus and Marthasterites tribrachiatus calcareous nanofossil biozones, upper Ilerdian and lower Cuisisian age (Ypresian). The lithology of the succession is mainly siliciclastic and four facies association have been characterised: very coarse grained or pebbly sandstones organised in channel-shape beds, exhibiting large-scale erosional and traction structures; usually amalgamated up to 10 m thick beds made up of coarse -to very coarsegrained sandstones with erosional and depositional structures and dewatering features; and plane-parallel sandstone beds with great lateral continuity and occasional hemipelagic interbeddings of limestones. Interbedded in these three facies associations there often appears the fourth one, which comprises ichnofauna-rich lutites, although it occurs mainly in the second and third facies association. The unit is interpreted as a turbiditc system complex, feded from septentrional areas, and organised as a continuous transitions from channalised flow areas to proximal and distal lobes, and abyssal plain areas.
