The Andes are the longest mountain range on Earth, extending from the Tierra del Fuego archipelago in southernmost South America to Venezuela in the north. In southern Peru, the Andes consist of several mountain chains including the Western Cordillera and the Eastern Cordillera, with elevations of up to , which are separated from each other by the Altiplano.
Eastern Frontal Fault System
The long Afiladores Fault runs through a geographic area of the Andes where the Central and Eastern Ranges merge into a single range known as the "Cordillera Centro-Oriental de Colombia". The fault offsets Precambrian gneisses and schists, metamorphic Paleozoic rocks, Mesozoic granitic rocks, and Tertiary sedimentary deposits. The fault extends south into the Republic of Ecuador and probably connects with the Chingual Fault.
