Petrologia e geocronologia U-Pb do plúton granítico Serra da Rajada, porção central do domínio Rio Piranhas - Seridó, Província Borborema, NE do Brasil

The ediacaran plutonic activity related to the Brasilian/Pan-African orogeny is one of the most important geological features in the Borborema Province, represented along its extension by numerous batholiths, stocks, and dikes.The object of this study, the Serra Rajada Granitic Pluton (SRGP), located in the central portion of the Piranhas-Seridó River Domain is an example of this activity. This pluton has been the subject of cartographic, petrographic, geochronological and lithogeochemical studies and its rocks were characterized by two facies. First, the granitic facies were described as monzogranites consisting of K-feldspar, plagioclase (oligoclase - An23-24%), quartz and biotite (main mafic) and opaque minerals such as titanite, allanite, apatite, and zircon as accessories. Alteration minerals are chlorite, white mica and carbonate. Second, the dioritic facies consist of rocks formed by quartz diorite containing plagioclase (dominant mineral phase), quartz and K-feldspar. Biotite and amphibole are the dominant mafic minerals; and titanite, opaque minerals, allanite, zircon and apatite are the accessories. However, previous geological mapping work in the region also identified the presence of other lithostratigraphic units. These were described as gneisses and migmatites with undifferentiated amphibolite lenses related to the Caicó Complex (Paleoproterozoic) and metasedimentary rocks of the Seridó Group (Neoproterozoic) composed of paragneiss with calc-silicate lenses, muscovite quartzite and biotite schist (respectively, the Jucurutu formations, Equador and Seridó), the host rocks for the SRGP rocks. Leucomicrogranite and pegmatite dikes have also been identified, both related to the end of the Ediacaran magmatism and colluvial- eluvial and alluvial deposits related to Neogene and Quaternary, respectively. Lithogeochemical data on the SRGP granite facies, highlighted quite evolved rocks (SiO2 69% to 75%), rich in alkalis (Na2O+K2O ≥ 8.0%), depleted of MgO (≤ 0.45%), CaO (≤ 1.42%) and TiO2 (≤ 0.36%) and moderate levels of Fe2O3t (2.16 to 3.53%). They display transitional nature between metaluminous and peraluminous (predominance of the latter) with sub-alkaline/monzonitic (High K calcium-alkali) affinity. Harker diagrams show negative correlations for Fe2O3t, MgO, and CaO, indicating mafic and plagioclase fractionation. REE spectrum shows enrichment of LREE relative to heavy REE (LaN/YbN = 23.70 to 10.13), with negative anomaly in the Eu (Eu/Eu* = 0.70 to 0.23), suggesting fractionation or accumulation in the feldspars source (plagioclase). Data integration allows to correlate the SRGP rocks with those described as Calcium-Alkaline Suite of equigranular High K. The crystallization conditions of the SRGP rocks were determined from the integration of petrographic and lithogeochemical data. These data indicated intermediate to high conditions of ƒO2 (mineral paragenesis titanite + magnetite + quartz), parent magma saturated in H2O (early biotite crystallization), tardi-magmatic processes of fluids rich in ƒCO2, H2O and O2 causing part of the mineral assembly to change (plagioclase carbonation and saussuritization, biotite chloritization and opaques Sphenitization). Thermobarometrical conditions were estimated based on geochemical parameters (Zr and P2O5) and CIPW normative minerals, with results showing the liquidus minimum temperature of about800°C and the solidus temperature of approximately 700°C. The final/minimum crystallization pressure are suggested to be between 3 and 5 Kbar. The presence of zoned minerals (plagioclase and allanite) associated with lithogeochemical data in bi-log diagrams for Rb vs. Ba and Rb vs. Sr suggest the role of fractional crystallization as the dominant process in the magmatic evolution of SRGP. U-Pb Geochronological and Sm-Nd isotope studies indicated, respectively, the crystallization age of biotite monzogranite as 557 ± 13 Ma, with TDM model age of 2.36 Ga, and εNd value of -20.10 to the crystallization age, allowing to infer paleoproterozoic crustal source for the magma.

Utilização de sismos regionais para a determinação de um modelo 1D de velocidades da onda P na Província Borborema - NE do Brasil

In this work it was performed a study to obtain parameters for an 1D regional velocity model for the Borborema Province, NE Brazil. It was used earthquakes occurred between 2001 and 2013 with magnitude greater than 2.9 mb either from epicentres determined from local seismic networks or by back azimuth determination, when possible. We chose seven events which occurred in the main seismic areas in the Borborema Province. The selected events were recorded in up to 74 seismic stations from the following networks: RSISNE, INCT-ET, João Câmara – RN, São Rafael – RN, Caruaru - PE, São Caetano - PE, Castanhão - CE, Santana do Acarau - CE, Taipu – RN e Sobral – CE, and the RCBR (IRIS/USGS—GSN). For the determination of the model parameters were inverted via a travel-time table and its fit. These model parameters were compared with other known model (global and regional) and have improved the epicentral determination. This final set of parameters model, we called MBB is laterally homogeneous with an upper crust at 11,45 km depth and total crustal thickness of 33,9 km. The P-wave velocity in the upper crust was estimated at 6.0 km/s and 6.64 km/s for it lower part. The P-wave velocity in the upper mantle we estimated at 8.21 km/s with an VP/VS ratio of approximately 1.74.

Petrologia do Plutão Bom Jardim de Goiás (PBJG): implicação na evolução neoproterozoica da Província Tocantins

The Bom Jardim de Goiás Pluton (PBJG) is a semi-circular body, located in the central portion of the Tocantins Province, intrusive into orthogneisses and metassupracrustals of the Arenópolis Magmatic Arc. These metasupracrustals present a low to moderate dipping banding or schistosity, have a low to moderate angle of banding / foliation, defined by mica, andalusite and sillimanite and cordierite, which characterize an amphibolite facies metamorphism. This structure is crosscut by the emplacement of the PBJG rocks. The abrupt nature of the contacts and the absence of ductile structures indicate that the intrusion took place in a relatively cold crust. Under petrographic grounds, the pluton consists mainly of monzodiorites, tonalite and granodiorite, following the low to medium-K calk-alkaline alkaline trend. Rocks of the PBJG have hornblende and biotite as the main mafic phases, besides subordinate clinopyroxene, titanite, epidote and opaque. Late dikes of leucogranite contain only mineral biotite as relevant accessory mineral. One U-Pb zircon dating of a monzodiorite yielded an age of 550 ± 12 Ma (MSWD = 1.06). Whole-rock and mineral chemistry suggest that the studied rocks are calc-alkaline, having evolved by fractional crystallization of Ca- and Fe-Mg minerals under high oxygen fugacity. Using the amphibole-plagioclase geothermometer and the Al-in amphibole geobarometer, we calculate temperatures and pressures of, respectively, 692-791 °C e 2.4-5.0 kbar for the intrusion of the PBJG, which is corroborated by previous metamorphic assemblages in the country rocks. The geological, geochemical and geochronological features of PBJG demonstrate their post-tectonic or post-collisional nature, with emplacement into an already uplifted and relatively cool crust at the end of brasiliano orogeny in this portion of the Tocantins Province.

"Do alto da colina" - a província do Rio Grande do Norte, o comércio, os rios Potengi e Jundiaí e o complexo comercial do Guarapes 1850 - 1900

The commercial complex Guarapes was during the second half of the nineteenth century most commercial street of Rio Grande do Norte province. In that time frame, you can see its flourishing as one of the central places of trade in the province in 1850, and its subsequent abandonment in 1900. This thesis aims to investigate, in its first part, the paths that help to understand, as the context of the expansion of global markets in the second half of the nineteenth century enabled the conditions for the emergence of the commercial complex. However, trade relations established in this province through the commercial complex, even participating in this global environment, reserved particular characteristics in their social and trade relations, as if dealing with a peripheral province, we look at the uniqueness of the relationship occurred in this space. In the second part, we seek to understand the importance that the rivers Potengi and Jundiaí had to install the commercial complex Guarapes in the second half of the nineteenth century. As the geographical position in relation to rivers, enabled this space became flow zone and confluence of goods distributed to the various parts of the interior of the province. We also monitor the process that made these rivers leave the role of mobility and transport relations in this space, giving way the railways and roads shooting. In the third part, we seek to understand the commercial complex Guarapes in focus. Analyzing their spatial distribution on the landscape, and how the spatial organization held at the same time traces of the Brazilian patriarchy exposed by Gilberto Freyre, but also "modern" features, due to the increase of a new culture inserted material in the province. We also seek to understand elements of material culture that was the environment of the complex, and how these materials are important sources for understanding this society under study. We treat from the biggest to the smallest fragments without hierarchize them. Understanding that, the study associated the written sources and materials provide a gain in understanding of everyday these people who lived in that area of the complex in the second half of the nineteenth century.

Late Bronze Age in Eastern Iberian Peninsula: Archaeological Bases and Periodization

Research surrounding the transition from II to I millennium cal BC in Eastern Iberian Peninsula has a large and extensive tradition of investigation. However, the chances to do research on this historical process have been limited by the lack of a well contextualized and dated stratigraphic sequence. For this reason, recent studies in this topic have followed the periodic proposals which were developed in closer regions and areas, especially in the South East and North East of the Peninsula. The investigation perspective about the Late Bronze in Eastern Iberian has however now improved, with the development of several archaeological investigations, the increase in the number of sites being dated and more recent studies into the region helping to bring about this change. As such, it is now in the correct state to be able to propose a new periodization and delve into the changes which occurred in the transition between 1500 and 725 cal BC.

Vigilância Epidemiológica de Doenças Infecciosas de Origem Bacteriana na Província do Cuanza-Norte

seguinte trabalho teve como objetivo a pesquisa da vigilância epidemiológica das doenças infecciosas de origem bacteriana na província do Cuanza-Norte em Angola. Todos os resultados foram obtidos a partir da base de dados da Direção Provincial de Saúde do Cuanza-Norte em Ndalatando, onde foram recolhidos os dados relativos aos doentes com Febre Tifóide e Tuberculose de 2010-2014, sendo estas, as doenças bacterianas predominantes na província. Os dados recolhidos demonstram valores elevados relativos à pesquisa de Tuberculose e Febre Tifóide, tendo sido estudados casos de prevalência das doenças relacionadas com a idade, sexo e origem do município. Destaca-se a faixa etária de indivíduos com menos de 20 anos para o caso da Febre Tifóide e idades superiores aos 20 anos para a Tuberculose. Os municípios mais afectados para o caso da Febre Tifóide são Lukala, Bolongongo, Banga, Quikulungo, e Ngonguembo. Para o caso da Tuberculose são mais afectados os municípios de Gongembo, Banga, Quiculungo e Bolongongo, uma vez que são municípios em situação instável com uma escassa vigilância sanitária. No tempo húmido (chuvoso), os meses de Março e Abril se distinguiram com maiores taxas de prevalência de febre tifóide e no tempo seco (frio), os meses de Junho, Julho e Agosto se distinguiram com maiores taxas de prevalência de tuberculose durante este estudo. A análise dos resultados permite afirmar que se registou, durante os cinco (5) anos deste estudo, uma tendência crescente para a tuberculose e uma tendência decrescente para a Febre Tifóide. A prevalência é, ainda, muito elevada em ambos os casos, sendo, por isso, necessário agir rapidamente - aplicando as respetivas medidas de vigilância sanitária que haja um maior controlo efetivo e sustentável de doenças bacterianas negligenciadas e melhor acompanhamento dos doentes.

Contribuição de uma seção gravimétrica transversal ao estudo da estruturação litosférica na porção setentrional da Província Borborema, NE do Brasil

Este trabalho apresenta um modelo gravimétrico 2,5D gerado a partir de 315 novas estações gravimétricas levantadas ao longo de uma seção transversal NW-SE com 750 km de extensão na porção setentrional da Província Borborema, NE do Brasil. A modelagem gravimétrica foi aplicada separadamente nas componentes regional e residual do campo gravitacional. A modelagem 2,5D das anomalias regionais revelou que a profundidade da interface crosta-manto varia de 28 a 32 km, considerando uma densidade média de 2,8 g/cm3 para a crosta continental e de 3,3 g/cm3 para o manto litosférico. As anomalias residuais de alta frequência foram interpretadas a partir do contraste de densidade da crosta superior, com uma espessura não superior a 10 km, e uma ampla associação litológica, com densidades variando de 2,55 a 2,9 g/cm3. A configuração geotectônica litosférica atual da Província Borborema é claramente resultado da ruptura dos continentes Sul-Americano e Africano no Mesozoico, na qual boa parte dos vestígios das estruturas tectônicas de grandes profundidades formadas durante a orogênese Brasiliana/Pan-Africana foi mascarada pelo último episódio tectônico responsável pela fragmentação do Gondwana Ocidental. _______________________________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACT

Nova Lusitania : historia da guerra brasilica : a purissima alma e saudosa memoria do Serenissimo Principe Dom Theodosio, Principe de Portugal, e Principe do Brasil : por Francisco de Brito Freyre : decada primeira

Francisco de Brito Freire nasceu em Coruche, em 1625, e morreu em Lisboa, em 1692. Foi capitão de cavalaria da Província da Beira, governador da Praça de Juromenha, no Alentejo, e conselheiro de guerra, tendo sido, por duas vezes, almirante da armada portuguesa no Brasil. Foi governador de Pernambuco e assinou a capitulação dos holandeses em 1654. Como autor original, Brito Freire pôde observar pessoalmente os acontecimentos e relatá-los a seu modo. Os autores puristas do século XIX consideravam-no escritor de grande credibilidade. ‘Nova Lusitana, historia da guerra brasilica..’ que sempre foi considerado um clássico, é uma das melhores fontes sobre os eventos que o correram em Pernambuco, entre 1630 e 1638 . A condição de governador de Brito Freire possibilitou o seu acesso à ampla documentação, tanto portuguesa com o holandesa. permitindo-lhe formular uma opinião própria e narrar, em primeira mão, aqueles eventos. Rico em detalhes curiosos, corajoso nas críticas políticas, trata-se de um livro raro e procurado.
