Tectonic breccia of the Cabo Frio area, State of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, intruded by Early Cretaceous mafic dyke: evidence of the Pan-African brittle tectonism?

Abstract: Esse trabalho apresenta as descrições de campo e observações petrográficas de uma brecha tectônica no embasamento gnáissico das áreas de Cabo Frio e Arraial do Cabo, RJ, e seu contato intrusivo com um dique máfico do Eocretáceo. Na proximidade da ilha do Japonês, ocorre um excelente afloramento de contato entre esses litotipos. A zona da brecha tectônica tem 10 a 20 m de largura e tem direção de N30ºE. Os clastos da brecha são angulosos e caracterizados pela textura de auto-brechação, sendo similares aos de br… Show more

“…They are cut by the tectonic breccia of the last phase of this orogeny (Motoki et al, 2011). All of them are intruded by the early Cretaceous mafic dykes related to the continental flood basalt of the Paraná Province (Guedes et al, 2005;Motoki et al, 2009a).…”

“…Heilbron & Machado, 2003;Schmitt et al, 2004) O embasamento metamórfico é intrudido por granitos pós-tectônicos, tais como Andorinha, Mangaratiba, Pedra Branca, Surui, Frades, Nova Friburgo, Silva Jardim e Sana, com idades intrusivas variando de 481 a 512 Ma (Valeriano et al, 2011). Os gnaisses e granitos são cortados por faixas de brecha tectônica silicificada (Motoki et al, 2011;2012b;Figura 5A). Estes todos são intrudidos por diques máficos do Eocretáceo (Motoki et al, 2009b;Figura 5A).…”

“…Zr, Nb, Hf, Ta, and Ti), are convenient for classification of altered rocks there are about 20 occurrences of alkaline intrusive bodies, called Serra do Mar alkaline rock province (Ulbrich and Gomes 1981). These bodies intrude into Pan-African metamorphic basement of granitic orthogneiss and pelitic paragneiss (Heilbron et al 2000, Valladares et al 2008, post-tectonic granite (Valeriano et al 2011), silicified tectonic breccia (Motoki et al 2011), and Early Cretaceous mafic dykes (Guedes et al 2005, Motoki et al 2009.…”
