- The evolution of Neoproterozoic magmatism in Southernmost Brazil: shoshonitic, high-K tholeiitic and silica-saturated, sodic alkaline volcanism in post-collisional basins Carlos A. Sommer Evandro F. Lima Lauro V. S. Nardi Joaquim D. Liz Breno L. Waichel Multidisciplinaria (Ciencias Naturales y Exactas) Na Post alkaline volcanism shoshonite The Neoproterozoic shoshonitic and mildly alkaline bimodal volcanism of Southernmost Brazil is repre- sented by rock assemblages associated to sedimentary successions, deposited in strike-slip basins formed at the post-collisional stages of the Brasilian/Pan-African orogenic cycle. The best-preserved volcano-sedimentary associations occur in the Camaquã and Campo Alegre Basins, respectively in theSul-rio- grandense and Catarinense Shields and are outside the main shear belts or overlying the unaffected base- ment areas. These basins are characterized by alternation of volcanic cycles and siliciclastic sedimentation developed dominantly on a continental setting under subaerial conditions. This volcanism and the coeval plu- tonism evolved from high-K tholeiitic and calc-alkaline to shoshonitic and ended with a silica saturated sodic alkaline magmatism, and its evolution were developed during at least 60 Ma. The compositional variation and evolution of post-collisional magmatism in southern Brazil are interpreted as the result mainly of melting of a heterogeneous mantle source, which includes garnet-phlogopite-bearing peridotites, veined-peridotites with abundant hydrated phases, such as amphibole, apatite and phlogopite, and eventually with the addition of an asthenospheric component. The subduction-related metasomatic character of post-collisional magmatism mantle sources in southern Brazil is put in evidence by Nb-negative anomalies and isotope features typical of EM1 sources. 2006 artículo científico 0001-3765 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=32778315 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=327 Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências application/pdf Academia Brasileira de Ciências Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências (Brasil) Num.3 Vol.78
