    (2022) Lana, Cristiano de Carvalho; Gonçalves, Guilherme de Oliveira; Mazoz, Ariela Oliveira; Buick, Ian S.; Kamo, Sandra L.; Cipriano, Ricardo Augusto Scholz; Wang, Hao; Moreira, Hugo Souza; Babinski, Marly; Queiroga, Gláucia Nascimento
    This study has determined the trace element and the U-Pb, Sm-Nd and Sr-Sr isotope composition of the Sume apatite (from NE Brazil) to assess its suitability as a primary/secondary reference material for LA-ICP-MS. Reproducibility tests demonstrate that one batch (~ 100 g) of the Sume apatite (Sum e-570) is uniform in terms of Nd-Nd and U-Pb isotope compositions. Bulk isotope dilution TIMS/ICP-MS and LA-MC-ICP-MS analyses confirm that the apatite is well suited for use as quality control material for Nd isotopes and U-Pb geochronology. U-Pb ID-TIMS analyses yield weighted mean ratios of 0.09211 0.00053 (2s; 206Pb*/238U) and 0.06120 0.00063 (2s; 207Pb*/206Pb*) and a weighted mean 206Pb*/238U date of 568 3 Ma (95% c.l.). U-Pb LA-(SF/MC)-ICP-MS runs using Sume-570 as a primary RM and reproduces the dates of other established RMs within 1% deviation (except for Durango 2–4%). Major and trace element abundances show that Sume-570 is a fluorapatite derived from a syenitic source. It also strongly shows LREE-enriched chondrite-normalised REE patterns with significant negative Eu anomalies, due to crystallisation of plagioclase in the residue.

    Depositional setting and U-Pb detrital record of rift‐related deposits in the Moeda Formation (Minas Supergroup) at the Gandarela and Ouro Fino synclines, Quadrilátero Ferrífero, Brazil.
    (2021) Madureira, Rafael da Silva; Martins, Maximiliano de Souza; Queiroga, Gláucia Nascimento; Lana, Cristiano de Carvalho; Dutra, Luiz Fernandes; Alkmim, Ana Ramalho
    The Moeda Formation (Caraça Group, base of Minas Supergroup) registers the initial rift stages of the Minas Basin in the Quadrilátero Fer- rífero, Southern São Francisco craton, SE-Brazil. We present stratigraphic and U-Pb detrital zircon dating analyses of the Moeda Formation that contribute to the comprehension of its sedimentary evolution in the southernmost Gandarela and Ouro Fino synclines (Central-Eastern Quadrilátero Ferrifero). The Moeda Formation sequence consists of a basal proximal alluvial fan with clast-supported conglomerates, grading upward into an alluvial floodplain with quartz arenites, and upper massive sandstones from distal fluvial fans. Because the Moeda Formation is normally limited by similar lithologies at both its base (Nova Lima Group, Rio das Velhas Supergroup) and top (Batatal Formation, upper- most Caraça Group) and stratigraphic inversion has occurred in the study area, U-Pb detrital zircon dating was also extended to these units to differentiate them stratigraphically. The youngest clusters of detrital zircon ages in the Nova Lima Group and Moeda and Batatal formations were 2716, 2777 and 2786 Ma, respectively. Based on our data and relevant literature, the depositional age of the Moeda Formation was interpreted as between 2716 and 2520 Ma with the Mesoarchean continental crust, the Rio das Velhas Supergroup and the Archean TTG complexes as its main source areas.

    A-type Medina batholith and post-collisional anatexis in the Araçuaí orogen (SE Brazil).

    The Medina batholith and its host granitic migmatites record intriguing plutonic processes in the northern Araçuaí orogen (SE Brazil). This orogen shows a long lasting (630–480 Ma) succession of granite production events from the earliest pre-collisional plutons to the latest post-collisional intrusions. The Medina batholith includes granite intrusions ascribed to the post-collisional stage. They show high alkali and halogen contents, low CaO (at SiO2=71%:Na2O+K2O=7 to 9%; CaO=1.6%), and high FeOt/(FeOt+MgO) ratios (0.78 to 0.92). The Medina granites are metaluminous to weakly peraluminous, with ASI (molecular ratio Al/(Ca-1.67P+Na_K)) values of 1.76 to 2.07, and have high concentrations of high field strength elements (Zr+Nb+Ce+Y N 700 ppm), as well as high Ga/Al ratios. Accordingly, the Medina intrusions are typical ferroan A-type granites. U\\Pb ages fromzircon (501±2 Ma) and monazite (497±2 Ma) constrain the emplacement timing of theMedina batholith. Surprisingly, all monazite ages from host rocks also cluster around 500Ma, despite their nature and distance from the batholith, suggesting that they would have shared a same thermal process. The studied host rocks are granitic migmatites varying from patch metatexite to nebulitic diatexite, comprising paleosome of foliated sillimanite-garnet-biotite metagranite to gneiss, and non-foliated garnet-cordierite neosome poor to free of biotite. A metatexite (R14) located relatively far from the Medina batholith, and a diatexite (M26) found at the batholith contact were sampled for detailed studies. The paleosome of foliated metagranite (R14A) only shows zircon grains with igneous features and Th/U ratio from1.64 to 0.26. Although the spreading of zircon spots, themain cluster yields a Concordia age at 556±6 Ma, constraining the protolithmagmatic crystallization. A minor cluster furnishes a Concordia age at 499±7 Ma, in agreement with the U\\Pb monazite age at 501±2Ma. Extracted from the same metatexite sample, the non-foliated garnet-cordierite neosome (R14B) shows both igneous and metamorphic zircon domains with Th/U ratios ranging from 1.47 to 0.00. Again, the U\\Pb spots cluster at two distinct Concordia ages (562±3Ma and 499±3Ma). The youngest of them, fitting with themonazite age (495±3Ma), constrains melt crystallization,while the oldest age suggests paleosome inheritance. The nebulitic diatexite (M26) showsmonazite (497±2Ma) and zircon (Th/U=1.7 to 0.0; Concordia ages at 564±2Ma and 507±3Ma) populations similar to themetatexite neosome, alsowith the youngest ages bracketing themelt crystallization process around 500 Ma. Accordingly, all those ages at around 500Ma disclose a partial melting episode coeval with the Medina batholith emplacement. Phase equilibrium modeling on a garnet-cordierite neosome furnished P-T conditions of 750–840 °C at 2.4–3.5 kbar for that post-collisional anatexis. Evidence for such a late thermal event are common in the Araçuaí orogen, even far from the post-collisional batholiths. Thus, a possible major heat source can be envisaged, like a mantle plume triggering crustal anatexis and regional fluid circulation during the gravitational collapse of the Araçuaí orogen.

    Petrogenesis and age of skarns associated with felsic and metamafic dykes from the Paraíba do Sul Complex, southern Espírito Santo State.
    (2017) Mesquita, Raissa Beloti de; Evangelista, Hanna Jordt; Queiroga, Gláucia Nascimento; Medeiros Júnior, Edgar Batista de; Dussin, Ivo Antonio
    This paper concerns the study of petrography, mineral chemistry and geochronology of skarns generated at the contact of marbles of the Paraíba do Sul Complex with felsic and metamafic dykes in the southern Espírito Santo State. The marbles were metamorphosed under P-T granulite facies conditions during the syn-collisional stage of the Neoproterozoic Araçuaí orogen. Metamafic bodies are composed of amphibolite and hornblende granofels, while felsic dykes consist of alkali-feldspar granite, monzogranite or syenogranite. From marble towards the dyke, skarns related to the metamafic bodies are composed of carbonate + olivine and diopside + hornblende zones. Skarn associated to the granitic dykes are composed of three different zones: carbonate + tremolite, diopside, scapolite + diopside. Variations in mineral chemical compositions along the metasomatic zones suggest introduction of Mg and Ca from the marbles, Fe from the metamafic dykes and Na from the granitoids. The presence of spinel in the metamafic dykes and their skarns indicates that both were metamorphosed under granulite facies conditions during the 580–560 Ma syn-collisional stage. U-Pb zircon geochronology (LA-ICP-MS) of an alkali-feldspar granite dyke resulted in a crystallization age of ca.540 Ma, which suggests that its skarns are therefore younger than skarns associated with the syn-collisional metamafic dykes.
