          Abstract

          Estudios geocronológicos recientes realizados en la Formación Silgará (nombre original asignado a un grupo de esquistos y filitas aflorantes al SW del Macizo de Santander), han servido de base para proponer la escisión de ésta formación en las siguientes unidades: Esquistos del Silgará s.s., Esquistos del Chicamocha y, Filitas de San Pedro. Estas unidades, se caracterizan por presentar diferentes litologías metamorficas y diferentes edades de depositación de su protolito. En el contexto de ideas antes referido, el trabajo que aquí se presenta tiene como propósito aportar nuevas evidencias que apoyan la propuesta de escisión antes referida, a partir de análisis isotópicos del Hf en zircones detríticos presentes en cada una de las tres unidades ya referidas, y puntualmente a partir de análisis de geoquímica de roca total. Adicionalmente, con base en la información geológica acumulada, se plantea un nuevo marco estratigráfico para el basamento metamórfico del Macizo de Santander.

          Translated abstract

          The latest geochronological studies carried out in the Silgara Formation (an original name given to a group of schist and phyllites outcropping southwestern Santander Massif), has provided the basis for proposing this formation's split-off in the following units: Silgara Schist s.s., Chicamocha Schist and San Pedro Phyllites. These units are characterized by its different metamorphic lithologies and by its different protolith deposition' ages. In the context of the aforementioned ideas, the current work aims to provide new evidences supporting the referred proposal concerning the Silgara Formation' split-off, based on detrital zircons isotopic analysis from the already mentioned new three metamorphic units and on some whole rock geochemistry analysis as well. Likewise, based on the accumulated geological information, a new stratigraphic framework for the Santander Massif' metamorphic basement is here proposed.
