The Antioquia Batholith (Spanish: Batolito Antioqueño, Ksta, Kqd, K2ba) is a cluster of plutons located in and named after Antioquia, Colombia. The plutons stretch over an area of about 7,800 square kilometres (3,000 sq mi), and intruded and cooled in Late Cretaceous times. Much of the batholith is weathered into a 40 metres (130 ft) thick saprolite mantle. In some locations this saprolite reaches thicknesses of about 200 metres (660 ft). The development of this weathering is attributed to the humid climate and to stable conditions with limited amounts of erosion. Where the batholith-derived saprolite is eroded, inselbergs, such as El Peñón de Guatapé, crop out. Inselbergs correspond to rock masses of the batholith that resisted weathering and erosion by being less fractured.

  • Il batolite di Antioquia (in lingua spagnola: Batolito Antioqueño) è una formazione geologica costituita da un gruppo di plutoni situati nel Dipartimento di Antioquia, in Colombia. I plutoni del batolite si estendono su di un'area di circa 7800 km² con intrusione e raffreddamento avvenuto nel Cretacico superiore. La maggior parte del batolite ha subito un processo di degradazione meteorica, che ha formato uno strato di 40 m di . In alcune zone la saprolite raggiunge uno spessore di 200 m. La meteorizzazione viene attribuita al clima caldo umido e alle condizioni di stabilità, con una percentuale minima di erosione. Dove la saprolite è erosa, affiorano dei monadnock (picchi di roccia isolati) come El Peñón de Guatapé. Questi monoliti sono costituiti da blocchi di roccia più dura che ha resi (it)
