Item The ancestry and magmatic evolution of Archaean TTG rocks of the Quadrilátero Ferrífero province, southeast Brazil.(2013) Lana, Cristiano de Carvalho; Alkmim, Fernando Flecha de; Armstrong, Richard; Cipriano, Ricardo Augusto Scholz; Romano, Rafael CottaCombined LA-ICP-MS and SHRIMP U–Pb ages from Quadrilatero Ferrifero (QF) province reveals for the first time three main periods of TTG magmatism in the southern part of the Sao Francisco Craton (Brazil). These periods – described here as the Santa Barbara (SB), Rio das Velhas I (RVI) and Rio das Velhas II (RVII) events – embody a significant part of a protracted tectonomagmatic history of the Craton, spanning from 3220 to 2770 Ma. The initial stages of TTG magmatism (the SB event) led to formation of a core of Palaeoarchaean TTG crust via magmatic additions of juvenile felsic rocks into mafic–ultramafic rocks, at ca. 3212–3210 Ma. The following event (RVI event) saw the growth of this Palaeoarchaean core into a more composite, polydefomed continental segment through magmatic additions of juvenile TTG rocks and tectonic accretion of mafic–ultramafic greenstone belt terrains. Our U–Pb data and regional constraints suggest that much of the TTG crust exposed in the QF region today was produced during the RVI event, between 2930 and 2900 Ma. The final stages of TTG crust production (RV II event) were marked by convergence-related magmatism, affecting an extensive Palaeo- to Mesoarchaean continental block (The RVI block). The timing and duration of the latest TTG event coincides with the felsic volcanism and deposition of turbiditic wackes of the main greenstone belt sequence.Item Unravelling a Proterozoic basin history through detrital zircon geochronology : the case of the Espinhaço Supergroup, Minas Gerais, Brazil.(2012) Chemale Júnior, Farid; Dussin, Ivo Antonio; Alkmim, Fernando Flecha de; Martins, Maximiliano de Souza; Queiroga, Gláucia Nascimento; Armstrong, Richard; Santos, Marcelo Nascimento dosNew U–Pb in situ zircon dating provides a new approach for the study of the Espinhaço Supergroup units exposed in the São Francisco Craton and Araçuaí Orogen. Located in Southern Espinhaço, Minas Gerais, the following two basins were formed in intraplate conditions: (i) the Lower Espinhaço Basin is marked by a volcano-sedimentary sequence with alluvial, fluvial and eolian deposits that were formed from 1.68 Ga to 1.80 Ga; (ii) the overlying sequence, called the Upper Espinhaço Basin, is a rift-sag basin that presents basal diamond-bearing continental deposits (the Sopa–Brumadinho Formation) with a younger zircon peak at 1192 Ma, which is the maximum age for deposition of the upper units. The obtained U–Pb detrital zircon data of the studied units show age groupings related to the orogenic cycles of Jequié (Neoarchean) and Transamazonian (Paleoproterozoic), which are associated with the stability period from 1.8 Ga to 0.91 Ga in the São Franscico Craton, and record deposition during at least the three basinal cycles. The Stenian–Tonian ages of the Upper Espinhaço Basin units (906 Ma to 1192 Ma) suggest a direct link with the evolution of the Rodinia Supercontinent and represent a marker for Mesoproterozoic to Early Neoproterozoic evolution in the São Franscico Craton and adjacent areas.
