Abstract:Orthopyroxene-bearing tonalites/trondhjemites with scarce quartz diorites comprise the Café enderbite that crops out in three Neoarchean plutons in the central portion of the Canaã dos Carajás domain, Carajás Province, northern Brazil. Intrinsic parameters based on the mineral chemistry of plagioclase, biotite, amphibole, and pyroxene constrain crystallization conditions to 1150-850°C and 750-600 MPa, moderate water content in the melt (4.8-5.6 wt.%) and relatively oxidizing conditions, between the fayalite-ma… Show more
