Summary edit

Description
English: Conglomerate (Poudingue de Valensole) of Les pénitents des Mées in France.
Français : Les pénitents des Mées sont issus de l’érosion de la puissante formation détritique des Poudingues de Valensole. Le Poudingue de Valensole est issue des matériaux transportées depuis les Alpes sous forme de galets par les rivières dont la Durance. L’importance du dépôt dans le secteur de Valensol est lié à la formation d’un bassin causée par le jeux de la fameuse faille de moyenne Durance. Le dépôt de galet s’est consolidé par cimentation pour donner un conglomérat à éléments ronds c’est-à-dire un poudingue. Depuis 3Ma le plateau de Valensole est soumis à l’érosion dont le résultat sont les spectaculaires pénitents des Mées juste au-dessus de la vallée de la Durance.
