          Abstract

          RESUMEN La Unidad Ortoneis presente en el Macizo de Santander, ubicado en los Andes del Norte de Colombia, está compuesta principalmente de ortoneises cuarzo-feldespáticos, pelíticos y en menor proporción ortoneises de composición máfica y anfibolitas. Estudios petrográficos, geoquímicos y geocronológicos realizados en ortoneises de la franja Silos-Babega indican que son de composición granodiorítica y granítica con protolito formado a partir de fusión parcial de corteza en ambientes de arco continental activo. Los protolitos de estos ortoneises se emplazaron de forma sintectónica en rocas de la unidad Esquistos del Silgará. El metamorfismo de la Unidad Ortoneis alcanzó condiciones de la facies anfibolita, con presiones y temperaturas en el rango 4,3-10 Kb y 540-690 °C, respectivamente. Edades U-Pb LA-ICP-MS en circones de 471 y 479 Ma son similares a las obtenidas en los sectores central y nororiental del Macizo de Santander y confirman la continuidad del protomargen andino como resultado de la orogenia Famatiniana.

          ABSTRACT The Orthogneiss unit in the Santander Massif, Northern Colombian Andes, mainly consists of quartzfeldspathic, pelitic and minor mafic orthogneisses and amphibolites. Petrographic, geochemical and geochronological studies carried out on orthogneisses from the Silos-Babega belt, indicate that they are granodioritic and granitic in composition with protolith formed by crustal melting in an active continental magmatic arc. They were syntectonically emplaced in the Silgara Schists unit. Metamorphic peak of the Orthogneiss unit reach amphibolite facies conditions in the range of 4.3-10 kbar in pressure and 540-690 °C in temperature. Zircon U-Pb LA-ICP-MS ages of 471±11 and 479±10 Ma were obtained and these ages are similar to those known for the Orthogneiss unit in the central and the eastern Santander Massif and confirm the continuity to the north of the Andean protomargin as a result of the Famatinian orogeny.
