Resumen
This work presents a diagnosis of the existing research advances on the sources of stone aggregates in Colombia and in the Department of Boyacá, for civil works. Additionally, the work includes the geological definitions of sands and gravels, as well as the definitions and uses of the different stone aggregates. The mineralogical characterization that is established theoretically includes petrography, chemical and mineralogical analyses, as well as physical and mechanical characteristics. The granulometric analysis, wear analysis, as well as the methodologies to determine the specific weight and absorption of both fine and coarse aggregates are described. Likewise, harmful reactions in concrete are described. Specifically in the department of Boyacá it was possible to locate partial information, both in official institutions, as well as in academic research and specialized sources. One of the main conclusions of the work refers to the specialized information gap that exists in the department of Boyacá for the characterization, quantification and localization of the stone aggregates that the construction industry needs in that region of the country, so it is suggested the articulation of future research that could be led by the State, so that, with the support of the academic community, the information available on these resources that are in constant demand is expanded in an organized manner.
