    O Cinturão Salvador-Esplanada-Boquim (CSEB) é provavelmente um ramo nordeste do Orógeno Itabuna-Salvador-Curaçá. Neste trabalho, inédito para a região, é apresentada a caracterização petrográfica, petroquímica e geocronológica preliminar das rochas granulíticas da porção central-norte desse cinturão, onde foram separadas quatro unidades granulíticas ácidas e intermediárias, além de bandas de granulitos máficos, granulitos aluminosos e quartzitos. As quatro unidades ácidas e intermediárias são ortogranulitos foliados onde os granulitos máficos encontram-se encaixados sob a forma de lentes. Essas rochas foram atravessadas por diques orosirianos, dacíticos-riolíticos (Diques de Arauá). O estudo litogeoquímico dos granulitos ácidos e intermediários revelou quatro séries cálcio-alcalinas de baixo a alto K, assim denominadas: enderbítica (Ed1), enderbítica (Ed2); charnockítica de composição monzogranítica (MCh) e charnoenderbítica (Ch-Ed). Diagramas multielementares indicam que as quatro unidades possuem anomalias negativas de Nb, Ti e P e baixos teores de high field strenght elements (HFSE), sugerindo haver associação genética ligada a zonas de subducção e arcos vulcânicos. Os granulitos máficos, por sua vez, apontam para uma filiação toleítica com características tipo island-arc tholeiite (IAT). Os dados geocronológicos indicam idades que sugerem a presença de eventos tectônicos ocorridos na área, a saber: formação do protólito do granulito (Ed2) em 2,90 Ga (idade-modelo TDM-Nd); cristalização do granulito (Ed2) em 2582 ± 11 Ma e do MCh em 2473 ± 13 Ma; metamorfismo regional com idades entre 2087 e 2073 Ma; e preenchimento de falhas em forma de diques em torno de 2015 ± 12 Ma. Os dados obtidos, sobretudo aqueles da litogeoquímica, estão permitindo interpretar que essas rochas metamórficas de alto grau se adequam àquelas do tipo arco vulcânico. Essas, ao colidirem no Paleoproterozoico com o Bloco Serrinha, situado a oeste da área estudada, formaram uma cadeia de montanhas, a qual, ao ser erodida, expôs suas raízes granulíticas.

    Sedimentation, metamorphism and granite generation in a back-arcregion : records from the Ediacaran Nova Venécia Complex, Araçuaí Orogen, Southeastern Brazil.
    (2016) Richter, Fabiana; Lana, Cristiano de Carvalho; Stevens, Gary; Buick, Ian S.; Soares, Antônio Carlos Pedrosa; Alkmim, Fernando Flecha de; Cutts, Kathryn Ann
    The Nova Venécia migmatite-granulite-granite Complex (NVC) in the core of the Arac¸ uaí Orogen (AO,630–480 Ma), southeast Brazil, exposes a mid-crustal section with abundant evidence for high-grademetamorphism linked to production, extraction and emplacement of peraluminous melts. Although theAO represents the textbook example of a confined orogen, there is surprisingly a lack of detailed studieson its metamorphic evolution related to widespread granitogenesis occurring from the Neoproterozoic toearly Paleozoic. In this study, we combine U–Pb geochronology and metamorphic petrology to constrainthe evolution of the NVC migmatitic metasedimentary granulites, from deposition to high-grade meta-morphism, and to correlate the metamorphic history of the terrain with the several episodes of granitemagmatism (G1–G5) in the AO. The sedimentation of the NVC can be bracketed within a maximum 13 Myperiod, between its maximum depositional age at ca. 606 Ma and the intrusion of early syn-collisionalgranitoids at 593 Ma. Compilation of available U–Pb data shows that the bulk of the magmatic rocks in theAO (G1 + G2 rocks) crystallized contemporaneously over a period of 15 My (ca. 595–570 Ma) with a peakat ca. 575 Ma. Although it is inferred a protracted period of crustal heating in the AO (from ca. 640–480),U–Pb ages of metamorphic and magmatic zircons and monazites suggest at least two major heat pulsesat ca. 593–560 and 523–495 Ma. The timing of peak regional metamorphism is constrained from 575 to560 Ma, which temporally overlaps with the crystallization of the youngest granitoids. Phase equilibriummodeling of metasedimentary granulites from three different localities within the NVC, indicates thatall areas record similar peak P–T conditions of 750–850◦C and 5300–7500 bar. This is followed by hightemperature retrograde evolution to 640–800◦C and 4500–6000 bar. A post-collisional thermal eventlinked to the intrusion of large norite bodies (520–480 Ma) is recorded in our metagreywackes (monaziteU–Pb) and in granites (monazite and zircon U–Pb) from 523 to 495 Ma.

    Electron microprobe Th-U-Pb monazite dating and metamorphic evolution of the Acaiaca Granulite Complex, Minas Gerais, Brazil.
    (2016) Medeiros Júnior, Edgar Batista de; Evangelista, Hanna Jordt; Queiroga, Gláucia Nascimento; Schulz, Bernhard; Marques, Robson de Abreu
    The Acaiaca Complex (AC) is located in southeastern Minas Gerais state, and comprises felsic, mafic, ultramafic, and aluminous granulites as well as lower grade gneisses and mylonites. The complex is distributed over an area of ca. 36 km by 6 km, surrounded by amphibolite facies gneisses of the Mantiqueira Complex (MC). The discrepancy in the metamorphic grade between both complexes led to the present study aiming to understand the metamorphic history of the AC by means of geothermobarometric calculations and electron microprobe Th-U-Pb monazite dating. Estimates of the metamorphic conditions of the granulites based on conventional geothermobarometry and THERMOCALC resulted in temperatures around 800 ºC and pressures between of 5.0 and 9.9 kbar and a retrometamorphic path characterized by near-isobaric cooling. Part of the granulites was affected by ana¬texis. The melting of felsic granulites resulted in the generation of pegmatites and two aluminous lithotypes. These are: i) garnet-sillimanite granulite with euhedral plagioclase and cordierite that show straight faces against quartz, and is the crystallization product of an ana¬tectic melt, and ii) garnet-kyanite-cordierite granulite, which is probably the restite of anatexis, as indicated by textures and high magnesium contents. Th-U-Pb monazite geochronol¬ogy of two granulite samples resulted in a metamorphic age around 2060 Ma, which is similar to the age of the MC registered in the literature. The similar Paleoproterozoic metamorphic ages of both complexes lead to the conclusion that the Acaiaca Complex may be the high grade metamorphic unit geochronologically related to the lower grade Mantiqueira Complex.
