La Guajira Terrane (Spanish : Terreno de La Guajira , TLG ) is one of the geological provinces (terranes ) of Colombia . The terrane, dating to the Late Cretaceous , is situated on the North Andes Plate and borders the Caribbean , Tahamí and Chibcha Terranes along the Bucaramanga-Santa Marta Fault .[1] The southern boundary is formed by the Oca Fault with the Chibcha Terrane.[2] [3]
