Além de ser constituído como um laboratório de práticas pedagógicas, que abrange reunioes pedagógicas e grupo de estudos, os quais proporcionam leituras e discussoes sobre temas emergentes das aulas, relato de experiências, reflexoes sobre sua prática docente e processo formativo. Sendo assim, a prática docente no Programa revela-se um espaço para prática pedagógica supervisionada e reflexao sobre a formaçao inicial onde se desenvolvem diferentes conteúdos da educaçao física, a intersetorialidade, a ressignificaçao de espaços e a intergeracionalidade

Mineralogy and diagenesis: Their effect on acoustic and electrical properties of pelagic clays at DSDP Leg 86 Holes

Analysis of pelagic clay samples from Sites 576, 578, and 581 shows that physical, acoustic, and electrical trends with increasing burial depth are related to mineralogical and diagenetic changes. The properties of interest are bulk density (roo), porosity (phi), compressional-wave velocity (Vp) and velocity anisotropy (Ap), and electrical resistivity (Ro) and resistivity anisotropy (Ar). In general, as demonstrated in particular for the brown pelagic clay, the increase in roo, Vp, Ro, and to a lesser extent Ap and Ar with increasing depth is primarily caused by decreasing phi (and water content) as a result of compaction. The mineralogy and chemistry of the pelagic clays vary as a function of burial depth at all three sites. These variations are interpreted to reflect changes in the relative importance of detrital and diagenetic components. Mineralogical and chemical variations, however, play minor roles in determining variations in acoustic and electrical properties of the clays with increasing burial depth.

Calcareous nannofossils and planktonic foraminifera of ODP Hole 132-810C

The 136 m of calcareous oozes recovered in Hole 810C span the interval from upper Maastrichtian to middle Pleistocene. Three major hiatuses interrupt the sequence, with the topmost part of the Maastrichtian through the entire lower Paleocene, most of the lower Eocene, and the entire middle Eocene through most of the middle Miocene missing. Severe reworking and displacement affected the lower part of the succession from the Maastrichtian through the middle Miocene. Reworking and displacement gradually decreased in the upper portion. Calcareous nannofossil biostratigraphy enabled us to calibrate precisely the nearly complete magnetic reversal sequence of the Pliocene to the late Pleistocene. Two minor hiatuses detected by calcareous nannofossils across the Pliocene/Pleistocene boundary and in the upper lower Pleistocene, respectively, resulted in shortening of the Olduvai and Jaramillo Events within the Matuyama Chron of the magnetic reversal sequence.

Mineralogy and pyrolysis at DSDP Hole 62-463

A 15-meter sequence of early Aptian organic-matter-rich sediments, cored at Deep Sea Drilling Project Site 463 (western Mid-Pacific Mountains) has been submitted for detailed mineralogical studies (XRD, SEM) and organiccarbon characterization. Although intense diagenesis has obscured the sedimentary record of depositional conditions, the history has been tentatively reconstructed. Through sustained volcanic activity and alteration processes on the archipelago, large amounts of silica were released into the sea water, resulting in a "bloom" of radiolarians. Hard parts settled in large amounts, yielding a hypersiliceous sediment; amorphous silica was diagenetically transformed into chalcedony, opal-CT and clinoptilolite through dissolution and recrystallization. Oxidization of part of the radiolarian soft parts (1) depleted the sea water in dissolved oxygen, allowing the burial of organic matter, and (2) generated carbon dioxide which led to dissolution of most of the calcareous tests. Moderate depositional depth and a high sedimentation rate are though to have prevailed during this episode. An immature stage of evolution is assigned to the studied organic matter, which is of two origins: autochthonous marine material, and allochthonous humic compounds and plant debris. Rhythmic sedimentation characterizes the distribution of the organic matter; each sequence shows (1) an upward progressive increase in organic-carbon content, and (2) an upward enrichment in marine organic matter.

Bulk and clay mineralogy of ODP Leg 110 holes

The mineralogy of both bulk- and clay-sized fractions of samples from Sites 671, 672, and 674 of ODP Leg 110 was determined by X-ray diffraction. The major minerals include quartz, calcite, plagioclase feldspar, and the clay minerals smectite, illite, and kaolinite. The smectite is a dioctahedral montmorillonite and is derived primarily from degradation of volcanic ash. Percentage of smectite varies with sediment age; Miocene and Eocene sediments are the most smectite-rich. High smectite content tends to correlate with elevated porosity, presumably because of the ability of smectite clays to absorb significant amounts of interlayer water. Because of a change in physical properties, the decollement zone at Site 671 formed in sediments immediately subjacent to a section of smectite-rich, high-porosity, Miocene-age sediments. Sediments above the decollement at Site 671, as well as all sediments analyzed from Sites 672 and 674, contain nearly pure smectite characteristic of the alteration of volcanic ash. Within the decollement zone and underthrust sequence, however, the smectite contains up to 65% illite interlayers. Although the illite/smectite could be interpreted as detrital clay derived from South America, its absence in the sediments stratigraphically equivalent to the decollement and underthrust sequences at Sites 672 and 674 favors the interpretation that it originated by diagenetic alteration of pre-existing smectite similar to that in the overlying sediments. A significant percentage of the freshening of the pore waters observed in these zones could be due to the water released during smectite dehydration.

Element and Sr isotope composition of interstitial waters in sediments of ODP Leg 129

Interstitial water samples from Leg 129, Sites 800, 801, and 802 in the Pigafetta and Mariana basins (central western Pacific), have been analyzed for major elements, B, Li, Mn, Sr, and 87Sr/86Sr. At all sites waters show enrichment in Ca and Sr and are depleted in Mg, K, Na, SO4, B, alkalinity, and 87Sr compared to seawater. These changes are related to alteration of basaltic material into secondary smectite and zeolite and recrystallization of biogenic carbonate. Water concentration depth profiles are characterized by breaks due to the presence of barriers to diffusion such as chert layers at Sites 800 and 801 and highly cemented volcanic ash at Site 802. In Site 800, below a chert layer, concentration depth profiles are vertical and reflect slight alteration of volcanic matter, either in situ or in the upper basaltic crust. Release of interlayer water from clay minerals is likely to induce observed Cl depletions. At Site 801, two units act as diffusion barrier and isolate the volcaniclastic sediments from ocean and basement. Diagenetic alteration of volcanic matter generates a chemical signature similar to that at Site 800. Just above the basaltic crust, interstitial waters are less evolved and reflect low alteration of the crust, probably because of the presence in the sediments of layers with low diffusivities. At Site 802, in Miocene tuffs, the chemical evolution generated by diagenetic alteration is extreme (Ca = 130 mmol, 87Sr/86Sr = 0.7042 at 83 meters below seafloor) and is accompanied by an increase of the Cl content (630 mmol) due to water uptake in secondary hydrous phases. Factors that enhance this evolution are a high sediment accumulation rate, high cementation preventing diffusive exchange and the reactive composition of the sediment (basaltic glass). The chemical variation is estimated to result in the alteration of more than 20% of the volcanic matter in a nearly closed system.

Mineralogy and inorganic geochemistry of sediments at DSDP Leg 65 Holes

During Leg 65, 15 holes were drilled at four sites located on young crust in the mouth of the Gulf of California. Quaternary to upper Pliocene hemipelagic sediments above and interlayered within the young basaltic basement were cored. The influence of hot lava, high temperature gradients, and hydrothermal activity on the mineralogy and geochemistry of the terrigenous sediments near contacts with basalts might therefore be expected. The purpose of the present study was to determine the mineralogy and inorganic geochemistry of these sediments and to analyze the nature and extent of low temperature alteration. To this end we studied the mineralogy and inorganic geochemistry of 75 sediment samples, including those immediately overlying uppermost basalts and those from layers alternating with basalts within the basement. We separated three size fractions - <2 µm (clay), 2-20 µm (intermediate), and >20 µm (coarse) - and applied the following mineralogical determinations: x-ray diffraction (XRD), infrared spectroscopy, transmission and scanning electron microscopy, and optical microscopy (for coarse fractions, using thin sections and smear slides). We calculated the percentages of clay minerals using Biscaye's (1964) method, and used routine wet chemical analyses to determine bulk composition and quantitative spectral analyses for trace elements.

Carbonat-free sediment components of ODP Leg 115 holes

From the equatorial Indian Ocean, carbonate-free portions of sediment samples of Paleocene to Miocene calcareous oozes and chalks from Sites 707, 709, and 711 were studied using X-ray diffraction measurements and the scanning electron microscope. Downhole variations in biogenic opal, quartz, barite, and clinoptilolite were investigated. The abundance patterns of these major mineral phases show several similarities and may be used for additional lithologic correlations. Variations in biogenic opal contents reflect biogenic silica productivity. Beside the general pattern, a succession in biogenic silica decrease through time is generally recorded since the Oligocene. This succession started earliest at northernmost Site 711 and latest at southernmost Site 707, including Site 709 within these two. Opal-A variations as well as the barite distribution may be influenced by the paleoposition of the sites in relation to the high-productivity zone, which today lies south of the equator. Authigenic clinoptilolite apparently formed in two different modes. In deeper sediment intervals, clinoptilolite was the last mineral phase formed associated with enhanced silica diagenesis. In late Oligocene to middle Miocene sediments, clinoptilolite was the only authigenic silica phase encountered where otherwise strong opal dissolution was observed. The sponge spicules showed special dissolution features probably related to microbiological activity. Silica concretions mainly composed of opal-CT and authigenic quartz occur in carbonate-rich environments and are formed during later diagenesis when burial depth causes the sediments to reach higher temperatures. Opal-CT concretions in carbonate-free siliceous oozes were found at Site 711 and are probably formed during an early stage of silica diagenesis.

Bulk mineralogy of Cretaceous to Quaternary sediments from the Kerguelen Plateau

Carbonate-free portions of Upper Cretaceous to Holocene sediment samples from the Kerguelen Plateau in the southern Indian Ocean were investigated by X-ray diffraction. Downhole variations in the content of opal-A, opal-CT, quartz, feldspar, barite, and clinoptilolite were studied at Site 737 on the northern Kerguelen Plateau and at Sites 744 and 738 on the southern Kerguelen Plateau. The variation of these components reflects temporal changes in the depositional history of the Kerguelen Plateau as well as major differences in the sedimentary evolution between the northern plateau and the southern plateau. Carbonate is the dominant component in the pelagic sediments on the Kerguelen Plateau. In addition, biogenic opal sedimentation plays an important role throughout most of the sequence. A major increase in opal accumulation is documented at all sites in late Miocene time, which is in accordance with the well-known increase in silica productivity probably caused by a major cooling step. Because of its position near the Polar Frontal Zone, sediments from Site 737 show a more extensive opal deposition than at Sites 744 and 738. An earlier productivity pulse is documented at Site 744 on the southern plateau within the early Oligocene, following the initial phase of intense East Antarctic glaciation. This cooling event resulted in higher amounts of ice-rafted terrigenous quartz and, to a lesser extent, feldspar. With the exception of the Site 744 sediments, opal deposition in Paleogene and older sediments can be reconstructed only from the diagenetic transformation products of opal-CT and probably clinoptilolite. In contrast to the southern sequence, on the northern Kerguelen Plateau higher amounts of clinoptilolite and no opal-CT were found. These major differences in the diagenetic environments may be due to extensive volcanism in the northern area. The volcanic influence at Site 737 is well recorded by the higher feldspar content and higher amounts of volcanic glass shards.

Late Cretaceous volcaniclastic rocks at DSDP Holes 74-525A and 74-528

Volcaniclastic rocks of Late Cretaceous age occur in four out of five sites (525, 527, 528, 529) drilled on the crest and the northwest flank of the Walvis Ridge during Leg 74. They are mostly interlayered with and overlie basement in the lowermost 10-100 m of the sedimentary section. Rocks from Holes 525A and 528 were studied megascopically and microscopically, by XRD, and XRF chemical analyses of whole-rock major and trace elements were undertaken. The dominant rock of Hole 528 volcaniclastics is a fine-grained (silt to fine sand), mostly matrix-bearing (partly matrix-rich) vitric "tuff," occurring as 5-110 cm thick, partly graded layers, some of which are distinctly bedded. Volcaniclastics of Hole 525A are generally richer in sanidine crystals. Most rocks contain some nonvolcanic clasts, chiefly foraminifers and lesser amounts of shallow-water fossil debris. Scoria shards, clasts of tachylite, and fine-grained basalts as well as chemical analyses suggest a basaltic to intermediate composition for most rocks of Hole 528, whereas volcaniclastics of Hole 525A are more silicic. The occurrence of tachylite and epiclastic, coarse-grained, basaltic clasts throughout the volcaniclastic sequence at Site 528 indicates shallow-water eruptions and perhaps even ocean island volcanism. The minor occurrence in Hole 528 of trachytic? pumice shards with phenocrysts of K-feldspar and the abundance of such shards in rocks from Hole 525A indicate Plinian eruptions characteristic of more mature stages of ocean island evolution. The sedimentary structures of volcaniclastic layers and their occurrence within deep sea calcareous oozes indicate a mass flow origin. Diagenetic alteration of the volcaniclastic rocks is pronounced, and four major stages of glass shard alteration are distinguished. Despite the effects of alteration and small-scale redistribution of elements and the admixture of nonvolcanic components, there were no drastic changes in the chemical composition of the rocks, except for pronounced increases in K and Rb and decreases in Ca and Fe. The basaltic volcaniclastic rocks very much resemble basement basalts in that they are moderately evolved tholeiites derived from an LIL-enriched mantle source with Zr/Nb ratios (Hole 528) of 5 to 6. This, in conjunction with the interbedding of volcaniclastic rocks and basement lavas, indicates contemporaneous seamount or island and basement volcanic activity involving magmas derived from similar sources.

Mineral composition and geochemistry of sediments from ODP Leg 127 sites

The lithostratigraphy of Neogene hemipelagic sediments recovered from the Japan Sea during Leg 127 was revised to improve intersite consistency and to remove confusion stemming from diagenetic modification of the lithology through the opal-A to opal-CT transformation. Special emphasis was put on the presence and nature of dark-light cycles in revising the lithostratigraphy. Mineral composition analysis was conducted for samples from Sites 794, 795, and 797. In addition, major element chemical composition analysis was conducted for these same sample sets from Site 794. The result of mineral composition analysis suggests that the detrital component, which consists of such minerals as quartz, plagioclase, illite, and kaolinite plus chlorite, is diluted to various degrees by biogenic silica (opal-A) and its diagenetic equivalents (opal-CT and quartz). Smectite, on the other hand, may be a diagenetic or hydrothermal alteration product of volcanic material, although more study is necessary to confirm its origin. As a whole, vertical variation in the sediment composition is consistent with the revised lithostratigraphy and helps to characterize the redefined lithologic units quantitatively.

Physical properties and bulk minerals from IODP Holes 308-U1322B, U1322D and U1324B

How the micro-scale fabric of clay-rich mudstone evolves during consolidation in early burial is critical to how they are interpreted in the deeper portions of sedimentary basins. Core samples from the Integrated Ocean Drilling Program Expedition 308, Ursa Basin, Gulf of Mexico, covering seafloor to 600 meters below sea floor (mbsf) are ideal for studying the micro-scale fabric of mudstones. Mudstones of consistent composition and grain size decrease in porosity from 80% at the seafloor to 37% at 600 mbsf. Argon-ion milling produces flat surfaces to image this pore evolution over a vertical effective stress range of 0.25 (71 mbsf) to 4.05 MPa (597 mbsf). With increasing burial, pores become elongated, mean pore size decreases, and there is preferential loss of the largest pores. There is a small increase in clay mineral preferred orientation as recorded by high resolution X-ray goniometry with burial.

Geochemical and mineralogical analyses of clay-rich intervals in ODP Sites 166-1006 and 166-1007

The western flank of the Great Bahama Bank, drilled during ODP Leg 166 at seven sites, represents a prograding carbonate sequence from late Oligocene to Holocene [Eberli et al., Proc. ODP Init. Reports 166 (1997)]. The signatures of the detrital input and of diagenetic alteration are evident in clay enriched intervals from the most distal Sites 1006 and 1007 in the Straits of Florida. Mineralogical and chemical investigations (XRD, TEM, SEM, ICP-MS) run on bulk rocks and on the clay fractions enable the origin and evolution of silicate parageneses to be characterized. Plio-Pleistocene silt and clay interbeds contain detrital clay assemblages comprising chlorite, illite, interstratified illite smectite, smectite, kaolinite and palygorskite. The greater smectite input within late Pliocene units than in Pleistocene oozes may relate either varying source areas or change in paleoclimatic conditions and weathering intensity. The clay intervals from Miocene-upper Oligocene wackestone sections are fairly different, with prevalent smectite in the fine fraction, whose high crystallinity and Mg contents that point towards an authigenic origin. The lower Miocene section, below 1104 mbsf, at depths where compaction features are well developed, is particularly characterized by abundant authigenic Na-K-clinoptilolite filling foraminifer tests. The authigenic smectite and clinoptilolite paragenesis is recorded by the chemical trends, both of the sediment and the interstitial fluid. This diagenetic evolution implies Si- and Mg rich fluids circulating in deeper and older sequences. For lack of any local volcaniclastic input, the genesis of zeolite and the terms of water rock interaction are discussed. The location of the diagenetic front correlates with that of the seismic sequence boundary P2 dated as 23.2 Ma. This correspondence may allow the chronostratigraphic significance of some specific seismic reflections to be reassessed.

Mineralogy micromorphology, and geochemistry at DSDP Site 89-585

At Site 585 of Deep Sea Drilling Project Leg 89 more than 500 m of volcaniclastic to argillaceous middle-Late Cretaceous sediments were recovered. Analyses by X-ray diffraction (bulk sediment and clay fraction), transmission electron microscopy, molecular and atomic absorption, and electron microprobe were done on Site 585 samples. We identify four successive stages and interpret them as the expression of environments evolving under successive influences: Stage 1, late Aptian to early Albian - subaerial and proximal volcanism, chiefly expressed by the presence of augite, analcite, olivine, celadonite, small and well-shaped transparent trioctahedral saponite, Al hydroxides, Na, Fe, Mg, and various trace elements (Mn, Ni, Cr, Co, Pb, V, Zn, Ti). Stage 2, early to middle Albian - submarine and less proximal volcanic influence, characterized by dioctahedral and hairy Mg-beidellites, a paucity of analcite and pyroxenes, the presence of Mg and K, and local alteration of Mg-smectites to Mg-chlorites. Stage 3, middle Albian to middle Campanian - early marine diagenesis, marked by the development of recrystallization from fleecy smectites to lathed ones (all of alkaline Si-rich Fe-beidellite types), by the development of opal CT and clinoptilolite, and by proximal to distal volcanic influences (Na parallel to Ti, K). Local events consist of the supply of reworked palygorskite during the Albian-Cenomanian, and the recurrence of proximal volcanic activity during the early Campanian. Stage 4, late Campanian to Maestrichtian - development of terrigenous supply resulting from the submersion of topographic barriers; this terrigenous supply is associated with minor diagenetic effects and is marked by a clay diversification (beidellite, illite, kaolinite, palygorskite), the rareness of clay recrystallizations, and the disappearance of volcanic markers.

Mineralogy and petrographic summary of ODP Leg 198 sites and DSDP Hole 62-463, Shatsky Rise

This petrological study of the lower Aptian Oceanic Anoxic Event (OAE1a) focused on the nature of the organic-rich interval as well as the tuffaceous units above and below it. The volcaniclastic debris deposited just prior to the OAE1a is consistent with reactivation of volcanic centers across the Shatsky Rise, concurrent with volcanism on the Ontong Java Plateau. This reactivation may have been responsible for the sub-OAE1a unconformity. Soon after this volcanic pulse, anomalous amounts of organic matter accumulated on the rise, forming a black shale horizon. The complex textures in the organic-rich intervals suggest a history of periodic anoxia, overprinted by bioturbation. Components include pellets, radiolarians, and fish debris. The presence of carbonate-cemented radiolarite under the OAE1a intervals suggests that there has been large-scale remobilization of carbonate in the system, which in turn may explain the absence of calcareous microfossils in the section. The volcanic debris in the overlying tuffaceous interval differs in that it is significantly epiclastic and glauconitic. It was likely derived from an emergent volcanic edifice.
