AGRADECIMENTO Eu gostaria de agradecer a minha mãe (Rosa Quispe) e meus irmãos (Joseph, Luis, Deysi, Frederick, Rosalyn e Andrea) pelo apoio e carinho, a Dr. Maria José Mesquita pela orientação, tolerância e hospitalidade, a Vanessa Pimenta pela ajuda útil com a revisão do Inglês, a Companhia Mato-Grossense de Mineração-METAMAT e a Companhia Biogold pela ajuda com a coleta de dados e logística no campo e ao professor Dr. Mauro Geraldes da Universidade estadual do Rio de Janeiro pela datação geocronológica. Eu estou muito agradecido com o Instituto de Geociências da Universidade Estadual de Campinas-IG / UNICAMP pelo apoio constante, ao CNPq pelo apoio financeiro, número: 132501 / 2014-7. A meu filho (Joaquin Cañabi), estendo o meu agradecimento especial por me ensinar o amor incondicional, para ser feliz, ter esperança e não me render das adversidades da vida. Há homens que lutam um dia e são bons, há outros que lutam um ano e são melhores, há os que lutam muitos anos e são muito bons. Mas há os que lutam toda a vida e estes são imprescindíveis. ” Bertolt Brecht RESUMO A Província Aurífera Alta Floresta está inserida na porção sul do Cráton Amazonas, no limite entre as províncias geotectônicas Venturai-Tapajós (1.95-1.80 Ga) e Rio Negro-Juruena (1.8-1.55 Ga). A maioria dos depósitos auríferos primários e secundários está concentrada no segmento leste da Província Aurífera Alta Floresta, principalmente na região de Peixoto de Azevedo, foco desta pesquisa. No entanto, embora seja uma área economicamente importante, a região possui um contexto geológico e tectônico com escassez de dados. Mapeamento em escala 100 000 e dados petrográficos, geoquímicos e geocronológicos evidenciam o seguinte ambiente geológico: (a) o Hornblenda quartzo- diorito, o Biotita tonalito e granodiorito e dacito Naiuram, o apresentam altos teores de CaO e Al2O5, com afinidade metaluminosa a peraluminosa, magnesiana, e fazem parte da série magmática cálcio- alcalina médio a alto-K, formados provavelmente em arcos magmáticos. A o dacito Naiuram têm idade de cristalização magmática de 2012 ± 13 Ma (U-Pb em zircão) e o Hornblenda quartzo-diorito idade de 1981.2 ± 8.1 Ma; (b) o granada-muscovita Leucogranito Braço Norte apresenta alto teor de sílica, com afinidade peraluminosa, magnesiana, e é considerado parte da associação leucocrática peraluminosa. A idade de cristalização magmática é 2006 4.7 Ma, onde altos teores de Rb e baixo de Nb e Y sugerem granitos de fusão crustais; (c) os granitoides Gringo e Cruzeiro exibem afinidade peraluminosa, com trend magnesiano a ferroso. O baixo teor de CaO e Al2O5, especialmente nos granitos Cruzeiro, sugere que estes granitóides não fazem parte da série magmática cálcio-alcalina, e podem fazer parte da série magmática toleítica de alto K, descrita para magmatismo pós-colisional. A foliação e microestruturas de alta T podem indicar deformação subsolidus, com caráter sin-tectônico ao sistema de zonas de cisalhamento transcorrente Peru-Trairão; e (d) as rochas vulcânicas e subvulcânicas Batistão (Quartzo feldspato pórfiro e Microesferulito maciço riolito) exibem afinidade peraluminosa, ferrosa e fazem parte das rochas tipo A, conforme o alto teor de HFSE e FeOt / (FeOt + MgO) ~ 0.9, provavelmente relacionadas a ambientes pós-colisionais a intraplaca. No sistema de zonas de cisalhamento Peru-Trairão, quatro zonas de cisalhamento de primeira ordem NW-SE, transcorrentes, dúctil a rúptil-dúctil, foram reconhecidas e denominadas de Joaquim, Paraíba, Peteca e Serrinha. Estas afetam principalmente os granitóides, dioritos e quartzo-dacitos, foliados, desenvolvendo milonitos e filonitos. Os dados obtidos sugerem que a região de Peixoto de Azevedo é parte da província Tapajós-Parima, onde Hornblenda quartzo-diorito, Biotita tonalito e as rochas Naiuram podem estar relacionados ao arco magmático Cuiú Cuiú (2001-1986 Ma); o granada- muscovita Leucogranito Braço Norte pode estar provavelmente relacionado à leucogranitos e interpretado como parte de um evento collisional do arco magmático Cuiú Cuiú. Os granitoides Gringo e especificamente Cruzeiro podem estar relacionados ao arco Creporizão (1980-1957 Ma) e provavelmente se alojaram no sistema de cisalhamento Peru-Trairão rm ambiente pós-colisional. Este novo contexto geológico leva a uma melhor compreensão da região de Peixoto de Azevedo, contribui para aprimorar as relações geotectônicas entre as províncias auríferas de Alta Floresta e Tapajós e consequentemente aprimorar novas estratégias de exploração na área.

    GENESIS OF THE BALLYNOE BARITE DEPOSIT,IRELAND,AND OTHER BRITISH STRATABOUND BARI1E DEPOSITS. A THESIS SUBMITTED FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY OF THE UNIVERSITY OF LONDON By JOHN RUSSELL BARRETT Mining Geology Division, Department of Geology, Royal School of Mines, Imperiel College of Science and Technology, The University of London. February 1975 IA curious grey rock' A,B.Wynne 1861 -3- ABSTRACT This thesis describes the geology of a large,stratiform barite deposit located at Ballynoe (near Silvermines) Co.Tipperary,Ireland.The deposithas been investigated from the sedimentological,mineralogical and geochemical aspects in order to determine its probable genesis. The bedded barite is a conformable,mineralised-horizon of Upper Tournaisian age.The barite horizon is associated with a non-sequence at the top of the Muddy Reef Limestone and marks the transition from a quiet water environment to one of dynamic sedimentation.In the footwall succession (Upper Devonian - Lower Tournaisian) a major sedimentary cycle is evident,a cycle which terminates in a non-sequence and is overlain by the barite horizon.Mass extinction of the fauna is associated with the non-sequence. The geometry of the barite orebody correlates with the palaeo-topography of the footwall,the topography acting as an important control over the lateral extent,thickness and nature of the mineralisation.Sedimentary features within the barite horizon suggest that the barite was precipitated in the form of a cryptocrystalline mud.Lithification and diagenesis resulted in extensive stylolitisation,recrystal- lisation and remobilization of the barite. The wallrock geochemistry suggests that the dispersion of anomalous barium is strictly confined to a mineralised- horizon directly overlying the Muddy Reef Limestone.Iron and silicon were associated with the initial emplacement of the barite.Sulphur and oxygen isotope values suggest that contemporaneous slavvater so played a significant role in the precipitation of the barite.

The Proterozoic ones result from accretionary orogens that become successively younger southwestwards, such as the Rondonian/San Ignacio (1.37 - 1.32 Ga) and the Sunsás orogenies (1.20 - 1.00 Ga). The PGC crops out mainly on the “Paragua craton” bounded to the south by the Sunsás belt, and composed of granites and subvolca- nic terms, and subordinately of syenites, granodiorites, tonalites, trondhjemites and diorites as orogenic representatives of the Rondonian/San Ignacio Orogeny, intrusive into the Lomas Maneches (ca.
