New U–Pb and first Hf data were obtained from the Nico Pérez Terrane (NPT).
Results are compared with new data from the Piedra Alta Terrane and Congo Craton.
The NPT was mostly built during Archean episodic crustal growth.
The allochthony of the NPT regarding the Río de la Plata Craton is confirmed.
The NPT underwent crustal reworking during the Paleo- and Neoproterozoic.
