Contribution to the stratigraphy of the onshore Paraíba Basin, Brazil

Abstract: Several publications have contributed to improve the stratigraphy of the Paraíba Basin in northeastern Brazil. However, the characterization and distribution of sedimentary units in onshore areas of this basin are still incomplete, despite their significance for reconstructing the tectono-sedimentary evolution of the South American passive margin. This work provides new information to differentiate among lithologically similar strata, otherwise entirely unrelated in time. This approach included morphological, … Show more

“…The stratigraphic column of the Paraíba Basin is composed of Cretaceous, Paleocene and Miocene deposits and a variety of Quaternary sediments related to the development of coastal systems (Rossetti et al, 2011(Rossetti et al, , 2012Lima et al, 2017).…”

“…Em superfície, as unidades sedimentares que caracterizam a área de estudo são a Formação Barreiras (BARBOSA et al, 2003) e os Sedimentos Pós-Barreiras (ROSSETTI et al, 2007(ROSSETTI et al, , 2012 (Figura 2). A Formação Barreiras, de idade miocênica (ARAI et al, 1988;LEITE et al, 1997;LIMA, 2008), ocorre ao longo de uma extensa faixa da costa brasileira, entre os estados do Rio de Janeiro e Amapá.…”

“…Revista Brasileira de Geomorfologia, São Paulo, v.16, n.4, (Out-Dez) p.559-578, 2015 Os Sedimentos Pós-Barreiras, de idade pleistocênica tardia a holocênica, ocorrem discordantemente sobre a Formação Barreiras, sendo constituídos por dois intervalos estratigráfi cos morfologicamente distintos, designados informalmente de unidades PB1 e PB2 (ROSSETTI et al, 2007(ROSSETTI et al, , 2012. Geologicamente, a unidade PB1 inclui arenitos intercalados com argilitos e conglomerados, comumente contendo fragmentos de concreções ferruginosas derivadas de paleossolos lateríticos que tipifi cam a discordância basal.…”
