Dr. Silvio RF Vlach (Silvião), for guiding me in the last five years over the universe of igneous rocks and their processes. Thank you very much for your uncommon patience, the enormous encouragement, scientific discussions, conversations, and especially our friendship. Certainly, this research would not be the same without his comments and suggestions. I would like to thank Dr. Francisco A Negri (Chico), who accompanied me on the first reconnaissance work of the main outcrops in the Limeira Intrusion, at the beginning of my undergraduate scientific work. Thanks to the NAP GeoAnalítica staff (José Paulo, José Vinícius, Marcos and Leandro) for their support during sample preparation and analysis steps.
