macuira neis

The guajira is divided into three zones, the high guajira corresponds to the macuira
mountain range, jarara carpinteros and cosina, the middle guajira where we can find low
elevation land, and the guajira that corresponds to the Montes de Oca (García González et
al., 2008). . The metamorphic rocks of La Guajira correspond to a contact, dynamic and
orogenic metamorphism, we can see that it shows geological evolution from the Paleozoic
to the Paleogene and that some of these samples are intruded by igneous bodies of the
Jurassic and Eocene, we can say that the units The metamorphic rocks of the upper guajira
show an evolutionary process beginning with the Precambrian jojoncito neis (pcnj), which
is composed of granulites and easy amphibolitic neis, granulites determined by opx
paragenesis (zuluaga et al., 2009)

It is generated in high-grade metamorphic conditions at temperatures greater than 700 °C

which are located in easy amphibolite-granulite and were formed from a sedimentary
sequence of arkosic composition (Rodriguez & Londoño, 2002), style we relate to the
collision of the cartons of Laureada and Amazonia during the formation of Rodinia
approximately 1300 Ma ago, which generated the formation of the Greenville orogen that
outcrops as a granulitic metamorphic belt in the Garzon massif, Santander massif, Sierra
Nevada de Santa Marta and the high guajira (zuluaga et al., 2009). The paleozoic macuira
gneiss by which it can be evidenced that there are no records of previous events such as the
separation of rodinia (Neoproterozoic) and the separation of patonia (late neoproterozoic)
(powell, 1995) this comprises amphibolite gneiss and locally migmatitic, schists, marbles
and, to a lesser extent, calco-silicate rocks (zuluaga et al, 2009) The similarity of this gneiss
with rocks from the Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta indicates that this regional metamorphic
event occurred during the formation of the Pangea supercontinent and that this gneiss it was
the result of a volcanic event < Permian sedimentary. This increases magmatic activity in
Colombia by causing distant environments on the edge of the continent.

Alta Guajira registers global regional tectonic events that mainly highlight the structure of
Rodinia, the formation and separation of Pangea, and the development of the Caribbean
plate. The tectonic evolution of the Alta Guajira can be understood through the simura
fault, which will spontaneously block and connect off-field blocks, the relevant geographic
boundaries will be defined, and the differences in tectonic events experienced millions of
years ago will be identified. we have also found changes in granular facies in Precambrian
rocks. Green shale facies in calcareous rocks, we assume that the temperature decreases as
the rocks get younger and change color, we also find a difference and the presence of
higher temperature facies as we travel southeast from the top of la Guajira and we see
metamorphism Geographical distribution Contacts with the extreme northwest of South
America.
