%X in this article is presented the design, construction, setting in operation and calibration of the automated system for the separation of heavy minerals (asshm). this equipment processes big volumes of rocks and silts with the purpose of accomplishing a primary mineral concentration thatlater will be refined and whose final grains of heavy minerals (apatite, zircon, sphene, among other) they will be used under the external detector technique (edt) for its dating by the fission tracks dating method (ftdm) used in the thermochronology laboratory of the ucv. this work is the result of an interdisciplinary effort between geologists, mathematicians, mechanical engineers and technicians in metallurgy.
