Abstract The Bacajá domain, southeastern Amazonian craton, comprises Mesoarchaean and Siderian terrains reworked during the Transamazonian cycle. Combined analyses of zircon LA-ICP-MS U-Pb and Lu-Hf with whole-rock Sm-Nd from the northeast portion of this domain made it possible to propose an evolutionary sequence between ca. 2.60 and 2.06 Ga. Gneisses with an igneous protolith age of 2630±15 Ma show negative signatures (ɛHft = -0.3 to -1.7 and ɛNdt = -3.08 to -2.98) and a Mesoarchaean formation (Hf-TDMC and Nd-TDM model ages range from 3.0 to 3.2 Ga). Rhyacian granite genesis lasted about 40 million years (2.10–2.06 Ga) and was divided into two magmatic periods. The first is represented by deformed granitoids with zircons yielding crystallization ages between 2.10 and 2.09 Ga and model ages (Hf-Nd) at about 2.5 Ga. The second event is represented by granitoids with preserved magmatic texture, crystallization ages of 2.06 Ga, and Siderian model ages (Hf-Nd) of around 2.3 Ga. The overall Hf isotopic analyses of this Rhyacian granite genesis exhibit a spread of ɛHft values between 1.8 and -2.9, which show a probably underestimated mantle-derived contribution in this period. craton cycle LAICPMS LA ICP MS UPb U Pb LuHf Lu wholerock whole rock SmNd Sm Nd ca 260 2 60 2.6 206 06 2.0 263015 2630 15 2630±1 0.3 03 0 3 -0. 1.7 17 1 7 -1. 3.08 308 08 -3.0 2.98 298 98 -2.98 HfTDMC TDMC NdTDM TDM 30 3. 32 . 4 2.10–2.06 210206 10 (2.10–2.0 periods 210 2.1 209 09 HfNd (Hf-Nd 25 5 2. texture 23 18 8 1. 2.9, 29 9 -2.9 mantlederived mantle derived period 26 6 20 26301 263 2630± 0. -0 -1 -3. 2.9 2.10–2.0 21020 (2.10–2. 21 -2. - -3 2.10–2. 2102 (2.10–2 -2 2.10–2 (2.10– 2.10– (2.10 (2.1 (2.

Abstract The Carajás (3.0–2.5 Ga) and Xingu-Iricoumé (1.99–1.86 Ga) blocks comprise the Central Amazonia Province (CAP) that is in contact with the Maroni-Itacaiúnas Province (MIP) within the Amazonian craton. The CAP is the oldest portion (Nd-TDM) of the craton and corresponds to an Archean nucleus bordered by younger Paleo-Mesoproterozoic mobile belts, including the MIP. Because the location and tectonic boundaries between these provinces are insufficiently known, we carried out a geological survey along the Middle Xingu River, cutting the WNW-ESE regional trend, to further understand cratonic evolution of the MIP and its southeastern boundary in this key area. Geochronologic results (Pb-evaporation and U-Pb SHRIMP in zircon and monazite), supported by petrographic and field observations, allowed identification of the following lithotypes and their ages: migmatitic gneisses (2859–2080 Ma), tonalitic gneisses (2554 ± 3 Ma, 2480 ± 9 Ma), enderbites (2114 ± 3 Ma), charnockites (2094 ± 4 Ma, 2084 ± 2 Ma), granodiorites (2079 ± 3 Ma), leucogranitic vein (2075 ± 2 Ma), and pelitic paragneisses (2062 ± 8 Ma). These ages are related to the reworking of Archean crust during Rhyacian magmatic arc amalgamation (2.22–2.13 Ga) and collision in the Transamazonian cycle (ca. 2.1 Ga).

ABSTRACT The Camaquã Mines, in the central-southern region of Rio Grande do Sul State, Brazil, contain the largest deposits of base metals (Camaquã, Cu; Santa Maria, Pb-Zn) in the Camaquã Basin. The host rocks are consisted of sandstones and conglomerates of the Santa Bárbara Group and interbedded volcanic rocks of undefined stratigraphic position. Peperitic features were identified in a mineralized trachytic sill. An age of 565 ± 5 Ma (U-Pb LA-MC-ICP-MS) was obtained for another trachytic rock, which allowed for the identification, for the first time, of the Acampamento Velho Formation in the Camaquã Mines region. Stratigraphic relations demonstrate that both rocks represent this magmatism. Data from Pb isotopes and spatial relationship observed in the field indicate a possible genetic link between Acampamento Velho Formation and Camaquã mineralization. Pb isotopic data also suggest a predominantly older crustal source (1.07 Ga model age) for Pb and possibly for the other metals, with intermediate or mixed origin, suggesting that magmatic-hydrothermal fluids leached the metals from the percolated rocks of the basement.

ABSTRACT: The basic rocks of the Salto do Céu Suite outcrop as sills and flows in the southwestern Amazon Craton, Rondonian-San Ignacio Province, with an age of about 1.44 Ga. Sills are 2 to 30 m thick being hosted by pelites of the Aguapei Group. The flows are up to 5 m thick and cover this unit. Typical textures of magma mingling are observed near the contact with granites of Rio Branco Suite. The Rio Branco Intrusive Suite is composed of basic and acid rocks, as well as hybrid rocks that indicate mixing processes between basic and acids magmas. U-Pb (TIMS zircon) results indicate ages around 1.4 Ga for both terms. The Salto do Céu Suite rocks have tholeiites affinity classified as subalkaline and iron-rich tholeiitic basalts, with mg# values between 0.30 and 0.51. They can be separated into two groups, based on La N ; one is richer in ETR with La N greater than 100, while the other one has La N less than 100. Rocks of the Salto do Céu Suite and Rio Branco Suite are interpreted as a bimodal suites showing magma mingling features such as those developed in continental intraplate settings, extensional regime associated to the Columbia/Nuna breakup.

RESUMO: Este trabalho analisa o registro do magmatismo alcalino potássico saturado-SiO 2 do Quartzo-Monzonito Castanhal e do Quartzo-Sienito Ladeira da Vovó. Essas rochas estão localizadas próximas à borda norte da Bacia do Amazonas. As amostras mostram valores K 2 O + 2 > Na 2 O e K 2 O/Na 2 O < 2, que confirmam o caráter alcalino potássico ou shoshonítico. O Quartzo Monzonito Castanhal contém menos de 20% de quartzo, o qual é também característico de rochas alcalinas potássicas, o que é confirmado nos diagramas geoquímicos. O Quartzo-Sienito Ladeira da Vovó foi alojado e retrabalhado em falhas lístricas, representantes da fase rifte da formação da Bacia do Amazonas, que causou sua proeminente textura granofírica (granófiro) provavelmente durante o período Toniano. Um grupo de 21 cristais de zircão foi extraído do hornblenda-quartzo-monzonito Castanhal e forneceu a idade média de 1872 ± 6 Ma (MSWD = 2,4), contudo um cristal adicional forneceu uma idade Transamazônica de 2062 ± 17 Ma. Essas rochas alcalino-potássicas de idade Orosiriana (1872 Ma) podem corresponder a um ambiente pós-colisional. Os valores negativos em εHft e as idades TDM Hf revelam grande contribuição de componentes crustais máficos Meso- a Neoarqueanos (2,95 - 2,66 Ga) e/ou componentes crustais félsicos Neoarquenos a Siderianos tardios (2,51 - 2,34 Ga).

ABSTRACT: This paper approaches the record of SiO2-saturated potassic alkaline magmatism of Castanhal Quartz Monzonite, Mapuera Suite, and Ladeira da Vovó Quartz Syenite. These samples are located near the Northern border of the Amazon Basin. Such rocks show K2O + 2 > Na2O and K2O/Na2O < 2 values that confirm the potassic or shoshonitic character of these rocks. The Castanhal Quartz Monzonite contains less than 20% volume of quartz, which is also a characteristic of the shoshonitic or SiO2-satured potassic alkaline A-type magma signature observed on geochemical plots. Listric faults, representing the rifting phase of Amazon Basin formation, emplaced and reworked Ladeira da Vovó Quartz Syenite, which caused its granophyric texture, probably during the Tonian period. A group of 21 zircon crystals was extracted from a hornblende quartz monzonite and yields an average age of 1872 ± 6 Ma (MSWD = 2.4). However, an additional zircon crystal yielded a Trans-Amazonian age of 2062 ± 17 Ma. These potassic alkaline rocks of Orosirian (1872 Ma) age may correspond to a post-collisional setting. Dominantly negative εHft values and Hf TDM ages reveal a large contribution of a mafic crustal component from Mesoarchean to Neoarchean age (2.95 - 2.66 Ga), and a felsic crustal component from Neoarchean to later Siderian ages (2.51 - 2.34 Ga).

RESUMO: O Domínio Tapajós, localizado na porção sul do Cráton Amazônico, é um domínio tectônico da Província Tapajós-Parima, um cinturão orogênico Paleoproterozoico, adjacente a uma crosta arqueana retrabalhada, a Província Amazônia Central. Esse domínio foi interpretado como resultado da acreção de sucessivos arcos magmáticos, seguidos por um magmatismo pós-orogênico do tipo A, representado por granitos de ca. 1880 Ma da Suíte Intrusiva Maloquinha. Este estudo foi realizado em quatro granitos dessa suíte (Igarapé Tabuleiro, Dalpaiz, Mamoal e Serra Alta) da porção leste do Domínio Tapajós, assim como um granito tipo I (Igarapé Salustiano), relacionado à Suíte Intrusiva Parauari. Os granitos tipo A são sienogranitos e monzogranitos, e subordinadamente feldspato alcalino granitos e quartzo sienitos. Essas rochas são ferrosas, alcalicálcica a alcalinas e dominantemente peraluminosas, com anomalias negativas de Ba, Sr, P e Ti, e alto conteúdo de elementos terras raras (ETR) com pronunciada anomalia negativa de Eu. Esse conjunto de características é típico de granitos tipo A. O Granito Igarapé Salustiano apresenta monzogranitos e quartzo monzonitos magnesianos, cálcicos a calcioalcalinos, alto K e dominantemente metaluminosos, com alto conteúdo de Ba e Sr, e empobrecidos em high field strength elements (HFSE) e ETR pesados, característicos de granitos do tipo I. A fonte do magma dos granitos tipo A é similar a de granitos pós-colisionais, enquanto os granitos tipo I mantêm assinatura sincolisional. A maioria dos granitos estudados tem ε Nd (-3,85 a -0,76) e idades modelo Nd T DM (2,22 a 2,46 Ga) compatíveis com a crosta paleoproterozoica do Domínio Tapajós. Conclui-se que fonte crustal arqueana (ε Nd de -5,01 e Nd T DM de 2,6 Ga) é local para os granitos tipo A.

ABSTRACT: The Tapajós Domain, located in the southern portion of the Amazonian Craton, is a tectonic domain of the Tapajós-Parima Province, a Paleoproterozoic orogenic belt adjacent to a reworked Archean crust, the Central Amazonian Province. This domain has been interpreted as the product of an assemblage of successive magmatic arcs followed by post-orogenic A-type magmatism formed ca. 1880 Ma-old granites of the Maloquinha Intrusive Suite. The study presented here was carried out in four granitic bodies of this suite (Igarapé Tabuleiro, Dalpaiz, Mamoal and Serra Alta) from the eastern part of the Tapajós Domain, as well as an I-type granite (Igarapé Salustiano) related to the Parauari Intrusive Suite. The A-type granites are syenogranites and monzogranites, and alkali feldspar granites and quartz syenites occur subordinately. These rocks are ferroan, alkalic-calcic to alkalic and dominantly peraluminous, with negative anomalies of Ba, Sr, P and Ti and high rare earth elements (REE) contents with pronounced negative Eu anomaly. This set of features is typical of A-type granites. The Igarapé Salustiano granite encompasses monzogranites and quartz monzonites, which are magnesian, calcic to calc-alkalic, high-K and mainly metaluminous, with high Ba and Sr contents and depleted pattern in high field strength elements (HFSE) and heavy rare earth elements (HREE), characteristic of I-type granites. The source of magma of these A-type granites is similar to post-collisional granites, while the I-type granite keeps syn-collisional signature. Most of the studied granites have εNd (-3.85 to -0.76) and Nd TDM model ages (2.22 to 2.46 Ga) compatible with the Paleoproterozoic crust of the Tapajós Domain. We conclude that the Archean crust source (εNd of -5.01 and Nd TDM of 2.6 Ga) was local for these A-type granites.
