In Colombia, the Parguaza Granite exposures are limited to the left margin of the Orinoco River and isolated hills surrounded by recent deposits. Also, other Parguaza-like bodies were identified to the south, intruded within rocks of the Mitú Complex (Bruneton et al., 1983; De la Espriella et al., 1990; Bonilla et al., 2016).

The Parguaza granite batholith covers an area in excess of 30,000 km 2 and, thus, belongs to the largest known Rapakivi-type intrusions (Rämö and Haapala, 1993). Radiometric dating by the Rb/Sr whole rock as well as U/Pb zircon methods yielded mid-Proterozoic ages of 1545±20 and 1532±39 Ma, respectively (Gaudette et al., 1978). …
