Abstract

Development of the Northern Colombian basins has been strongly influenced by the interaction of Caribbean and South American tectonic plates. As a result, three major geotectonic features or provinces are recognized, the Lower Magdalena Basin (LMB), the San Jacinto Fault Belt (SJFB) which represents the first accretionary event (Accretionary Wedge -1, AW-1), and the Sinu Fault Belt (SFB) formed by two additional stages of accretion, i.e. accretionary wedges 2 and 3 (AW-2 and AW-3).
