1. The Barreiro suite in the central Ribeira Belt (SE-Brazil): a late Tonian tholeiitic intraplate magmatic event in the distal passive margin of the São Francisco Paleocontinent
Abstract New geochemical, U-Pb, Lu-Hf and Sr-Nd data from the Barreiro Suite metabasites in comparison with enclaves within the distal Andrelândia Group and the orthogranulites of the Juiz de Fora Complex are presented. Geochemical data suggest intraplate setting, with high and low-TiO 2 , TDM Nd ages between 1.80 and 1.41 Ga, negative ΕNd t and ( 87 Sr/ 8

2. Geochemistry, metamorphic evolution and tectonic significance of metabasites from Caçapava do Sul, southern Brazil
Abstract This paper proposes the generation and closure of a proto-ocean and formation of an island arc in the Neoproterozoic Passo Feio Metamorphic Complex (PFMC), Caçapava do Sul region, southern Brazil. The PFMC, São Gabriel Terrane, consists of a Neoproterozoic supracrustal metavolcano-sedimentary sequence intruded by the Caçapava Granite. The study u

3. Geochemistry of basaltic flows from a basalt ring structure of the Serra Geral formation at Água Vermelha dam, Triângulo Mineiro, Brazil: implications for the magmatic evolution of the Paraná-Etendeka Province
ABSTRACT: The Serra Geral Formation belongs to the Paraná-Etendeka Magmatic Province (PEMP) and its geochemical and petrographic characteristics are not homogeneous. Many studies segment this group into six basaltic and two rhyolitic magma-types. It is believed that its extrusion occurred through crustal fissures in the Cretaceous, but some authors describe

4. Geology, geochemistry and petrology of basalts from Paraná Continental Magmatic Province in the Araguari, Uberlândia, Uberaba and Sacramento regions, Minas Gerais state, Brazil
Abstract: This study covers the region between the cities of Sacramento and Araguari/Uberlândia (Minas Gerais State, Brazil), where basalt flows from the Paraná Continental Magmatic Province outcrop. The investigated rocks present tholeiitic signature, with high titanium content, and are classified as Pitanga magma-type. The preserved basalt thickness is b

5. Petrography and geochemistry of the Pedra Dourada Granulite, southeastern Minas Gerais, Brazil
Abstract The Pedra Dourada Granulite (PDG) occurs at the southeastern portion of the Araçuaí Belt, north of the town of Ponte Nova. It comprises bodies up to 45 km2 inserted into amphibolite-facies gneisses of the Mantiqueira Complex. Motivated by the discrepancy of metamorphic grade with surrounding rocks, this paper presents results of the petrographic a

6. Petrologia e geocronologia do complexo máfico-ultramáfico trincheira, sudoeste do cráton amazônico: implicações tectônicas do mesoproterozóico
The tectonic framework of the ultramafic-mafic rocks of the southwestern Amazon Craton is generally little known. Most of work this cratonic portion is focused on the geochronological studies of granitoids, so that little is known about the origin and tectonic significance of these rocks. In this context, this study contributes to the knowledge of the tecton

7. Structural constraints on Paraná basalt volcanism and their implications on agate geode mineralization (Salto do Jacuí, RS, Brazil)
The Paraná-Etendeka Continental Flood Basalt province hosts world-class agate and amethyst geode deposits in Rio Grande do Sul (Brazil; Serra Geral Fm.). Salto do Jacuí Mining District (Rio Grande do Sul, Brasil) has different types of agate geode hosted in vesicular basalt. A series of structural features has recently been investigated in the Salto do Jac

8. Geoquímica das rochas máficas toleíticas da suíte pós-colisional Paulo Lopes, Neoproterozóico do Sul do Brasil
The Paulo Lopes Suite (SPL), composed of the Paulo Lopes Granite (GPL), Garopaba Granitoids (GG) and Silveira Gabbro (GS), is an association of contemporaneous acid and basic rocks, comprising monzo and syenogranites associated to basic dikes, with abundant mafic microgranular enclaves, interpreted as co-mingling products. The contacts between the granitoids

9. Geoquímica de rocha total, geocronologia de u-pb e geologia isotópica de sm-nd das rochas ortognáissicas e unidades litológicas associadas da região ipameri - Catalão (Goiás)
The part of the southern Brasília Belt, Tocantins Province, exposed in central Brazil, comprises metasedimentary rocks, metavolcano-sedimentary sequences, amphibolites and intrusive granites, and a large orthogneiss belt. These units are tectonically imbricated, and vary in metamorphic grade from lower greenschist to amphibolite facies, characterized by a 7

10. Rare earth and other trace element behaviour in sills and flows from north-northeast region of Paraná Magmatic Province / "Comportamento de terras raras e outros elementos-traço em soleiras e derrames da região norte-nordeste da província magmática do Paraná"
It is presented the determination of rare earth (La, Ce, Nd, Sm, Eu, Tb, Yb and Lu) and other trace (Cs, Rb, Ba, U, Th, Ta, Hf, Co and Sc) element concentrations in 51 representative samples of flows and sills from northern and northeastern Paraná Magmatic Province, particularly those located at north of São Paulo State and south of Minas Gerais.

11. Petrogenesis of low-TiO2 basalts of the Serra do Mar dyke swarm in Região dos Lagos, RJ / Petrogênese dos basaltos de baixo-TiO2 do enxame de diques da Serra do Mar na Região dos Lagos, RJ
Diques de basaltos toleíticos de baixo-TiO2 ocorrem na porção oriental do Enxame de Diques da Serra do Mar, na Região dos Lagos, entre Niterói e Búzios. Eles têm direções, preferencialmente, NE-SW, subordinadamente, NNE-SSW e mais raramente, NW-SE, e formas intrusivas variáveis. Os basaltos são holocristalinos a hipocristalinos, inequigranulares a

12. Models of earth structure inferred from neodymium and strontium isotopic abundances
A simplified model of earth structure based on the Nd and Sr isotopic characteristics of oceanic and continental tholeiitic flood basalts is presented, taking into account the motion of crustal plates and a chemical balance for trace elements. The resulting structure that is inferred consists of a lower mantle that is still essentially undifferentiated, over
