Dating low-grade metamorphism and deformation of the Espinhaço Supergroup in the Chapada Diamantina (Bahia, NE Brazil): a K/Ar fine-fraction study

Abstract: This study focuses on the northernmost part of the Mesoproterozoic Espinhaço Supergroup that crops out in the Chapada Diamantina. The fine-fraction K/Ar dating obtained on slightly metamorphosed sediments of the siliciclastic Espinhaço Supergroup shows a polyphase deformation history that corresponds to the Brasiliano (Pan-African) orogenic cycle. The isotopic results are interpreted to indicate three age domains coincident with three structurally different domains. Constrained by the Kübler Index ('illite cry… Show more

“…Most units generated during the Mesoproterozoic were strongly affected by Neoproterozoic orogenic events. Some restricted cratonic covers escaped this, for instance the central part of the Chapada Diamantina Group, in the São Francisco craton (Süssenberger et al 2014). Several examples of Mesoproterozoic rift deposits were involved in younger Brasiliano mobile belts, many hundreds of million years later (e.g.…”

“…Rochas metassedimentares de baixo grau, ao sul do bloco de Mimoso, apresentaram idades K-Ar em mica fina (Süssenberger et al, 2014) da ordem de 630 Ma, embora a deformação (dúctil e/ou rúptil) não seja claramente percebida. A cobertura pelítico-carbonática mais jovem (do Neoproterozoico, criogeniana talvez) desse domínio cratônico (Grupo Uma ou Bambui) foi intensamente afetada em ampla área, configurando um exemplo marcante de foreland thrust and fold belt, já mencionado (mapeado e devidamente visitados nas folhas de Cafarnaum, Jussara, Irecê e Canarana, na Bahia).…”

“…No "bloco de Mimoso", na parte sul, rochas metassedimentares de baixíssimo grau de metamorfismo (Süssenberger et al, 2014) indicam a presença de idades neopoterozoicas (do Criogeniano superior, do "Brasiliano"), enquanto que na porção mais central do CSF ("bloco de Morro do Chapéu") essa cobertura não foi afetada, embora esteja ladeando a leste o foreland thrust and fold belt de Irecê (reconhecidamente uma estruturação do "Brasiliano").…”
