abstract = {A total of 208 boreholes with continuous core sampling, drilled for the construction of the high-speed train line
through the city of Barcelona and other nearby infrastructures, were studied. The correlation of the lithologic logs of
these boreholes allows identifying five main depositional sequences bounded by sharp erosional surfaces: i) lower
Miocene, of alluvial origin; ii) middle Miocene, of deltaic-lacustrine origin; iii) lower Pliocene, of beach-shelf
origin; iv) Pleistocene, of alluvial origin and v) Holocene, of deltaic origin. The erosive surfaces that separate these
sequences represent important erosive hiatus linked to prolonged sea level falls at regional scale, which eliminated
the upper part of each one. Sedimentation took place during decreasing intensity of extensional tectonic activity
that mainly affected the Miocene deposits. The Plio-Quaternary units show their original structure apparently
without tectonic alterations. Some new biostratigraphic data based on foraminifer assemblages allowed making
accurate estimate of the age of the deposits.},
