This fieldtrip has the potential of encouraging exploration activities in the region and trigger collaboration projects between industry and academia. The fieldtrip has the potential to gather people from different institutions and companies who might be able to identify problems and discuss potential solutions. This could be the inception of collaboration projects that will enhance the geological knowledge of the Sinú-San Jacinto Basin. The main objective of this field trip is to identify the main outcropping lithologies and structures in the northern part of the Sinú-San Jacinto onshore basin. Work Plan Barranquilla - Tubará - Juan de Acosta - Boca Tocino Beach - Totumo Volcano - Galerazamba: Structural styles and depositional environments of Cenozoic rocks What to Bring The field trip fee includes transportation, refreshment, lunch, and field guide. Participants may bring cash (in pesos) to purchase additional snacks, souvenirs and to pay the admission to the Totumo mud volcano (if times allow it). Participants should bring hats, sunglasses, sunscreen, and insect repellent as well as comfortable walking shoes.
