description | The importance of this detailed analysis of the La Paila formation in La Uribe - Sevilla (Valle) section, sponsored by the ANH, arises from the contribution of stratigraphic data on the cenozoic rocks that compose this formation, which correspond mainly to coarse clastic levels, tuffs, green lodolitas and plants remains; this formation is in the vicinity of the Nogales formation, a hydrocarbon generating unit, the reason why La Paila formation could constitute a potential reservoir. The facial analysis of this section indicates that the sedimentation is alluvial. It reveals massive clast-supported conglomerates (debris flows), clast-supported conglomerates with imbrications, trough-cross-bedded and planar-cross-bedded conglomerates (gravel bars). The parallel-flat-laminated sands, the massive lodolitas and the clast- supported conglomerates with imbrications are produced by non-canalized flows when floods and correspond to deposits of alluvial fan and braided streams. During the sedimentation volcanic activity will take place, something from which evidence is found in the tuff levels. In previous geologic studies the La Paila formation the has been correlated with different litologic units of the Valle del Cauca due to the scarse stratigraphic data, which has generated confusions in the up-to-date geologic maps. In the west part of the section rocks with different characteristics from the superficial rocks on the east part were found and they are separated by an important fault, suggesting two different litologic units. |

La importancia de este análisis detallado de la formación La Paila en la sección Uribe - Sevilla (Valle), patrocinado por la ANH, radica en el aporte de información estratigráfica sobre las rocas cenozoicas que componen dicha formación, que corresponden principalmente a niveles clásticos gruesos, tobas, lodolitas verdes y restos de plantas. Esta formación está en vecindad con la formación Nogales, una unidad generadora de hidrocarburos, por lo que la formación La Paila podría constituir un potencial reservorio. El análisis facial de esta sección indica que la sedimentación es aluvial. Se presentan conglomerados clastosoportados macizos (Flujos de escombros), conglomerados clastosoportados con imbricación, estratificación inclinada en artesa y con estratificación inclinada planar (barras de grava). Las arenitas con laminación plana paralela, lodolitas macizas y conglomerados clastosoportados con imbricación, se producen por flujos no canalizados cuando hay inundaciones. Estos sedimentos son originados tanto por flujos de corrientes como por flujos gravitacionales y corresponden a depósitos de abanico aluvial y corrientes trenzadas. Es probable que durante la sedimentación se presentara actividad volcánica, que está evidenciada en los niveles de tobas. En estudios geológicos anteriores la formación La Paila ha sido correlacionada con diversas unidades litológicas del Valle del Cauca, debido a la escasa información estratigráfica, lo que ha generado confusiones en los mapas geológicos actuales. En la parte occidental de la sección se encontraron rocas con características diferentes a las aflorantes al oriente de la misma y están separadas por una falla importante, sugiriendo dos unidades litológicas diferentes.
