The Caribbean Terrane (Spanish: Terreno del Caribe, TC) is a geological province (terrane) of Colombia. The terrane, dating to the Late Cretaceous, is situated on the North Andes Plate and borders the La Guajira, Chibcha and underlying Tahamí Terrane along the regional Bucaramanga-Santa Marta Fault.[1] The terrane overlies the Tahamí, Arquía and Quebradagrande Terranes along the Romeral Fault System.[2][3]
