The type of boundary that the Andes mountains are, in South America, is a convergent plate boundary. This was formed from the collision of the South American plate boundary and the Nazca plate.

A constructive plate boundary, as it pushes land upwards (which formed the mountains)
The Himalaya mountains were formed in a collision of the Indian Plate pushing into the Eurasian Plate, in a convergent boundary known as a continental collision.

Convergent Boundaries.
The Andes mountains were formed from the interaction of the South American Plate and the Nazca Plate, which is a convergent plate boundary. The Nazca Plate is subducting beneath the South American Plate, leading to the uplift and formation of the Andes mountains.
what is happening at a convergent plate boundary is the two plates are coming together and forming mountains.
