Abstract:Mineral chemistry and intensive parameter estimates for the Major Isidoro (626 Ma) and Monteirópolis (627 Ma) magmatic epidote-bearing granitic plutons, emplaced along the Jacaré dos Homens transpressional shear zone (JHSZ), Borborema Province, are focused in this study. These plutons consist of medium-to-coarse grained equigranular to porphyritic tonalite to granite that show abundant dioritic enclaves. These granites contain biotite (Fe# 0.44 to 0.55), Fe-edenite (Major Isidoro), hastingsite (Monteirópolis),… Show more
