Experimental melting of cordierite gneiss and the petrogenesis of syntranscurrent peraluminous granites in southern Brazil

TL;DR: The role played by structures such as shear zones in experiments show that fluid-absent melting begins at nearsolidus collecting and transporting melts from their original conditions, around 700°C, promoted by participation of retrogressive sources to midand upper-crustal environments, has phengitic muscovite in the reaction Mus + Kf ± Qz = melt ± been an important field of study as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sm–Nd isotope geochemistry of metamorphic volcano-sedimentary successions in the São Gabriel Block, southernmost Brazil: evidence for the existence of juvenile Neoproterozoic oceanic crust to the east of the Rio de la Plata craton

TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a geotectonic model for the Sao Gabriel block and the eastern margin of the Rio de la Plata craton, which showed the existence of Meso/Neoproterozoic juvenile oceanic crust and island arc rocks during the Brasiliano orogenic events.
Journal ArticleDOI

Zircon U–Pb SHRIMP dating of gneissic basement of the Dom Feliciano Belt, southernmost Brazil

TL;DR: The age of a basement gneiss of the Dom Feliciano Belt along the coast of Rio Grande do Sul has been determined by zircon U-Pb SHRIMP to be about 2.08-Ga for the K-granitic magmatism and 800-590-Ma for the associated low-angle and sub-vertical shear zone deformations as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Neoproterozoic Dorsal de Canguçú strike-slip shear zone: its nature and role in the tectonic evolution of southern Brazil

TL;DR: The Dorsal de Cangucu Shear Zone (DCSZ) is part of a strike-slip fault system showing trends parallel to the Neoproterozoic Dom Feliciano Belt in southern Brazil as discussed by the authors.
