Geothermobarometric calculations were carried out using xenoliths and well-calibrated single crystals of clinopyroxene. Geochronological and isotopic studies were also performed where there were samples available of sufficient quality. Results indicate that the underlying mantle experienced variable conditions of equilibration among the six cites. Subsequent metasomatic enrichment events also support a hypothesis of different sources for these kimberlites. The U/Th values suggest at least two different sources of zircon crystals from the Catoca suite. These different populations may reflect different sources of kimberlitic magma, with some of the grains produced in U- and Th-enriched metasomatized mantle units, an idea consistent with the two populations of zircon identified on the basis of their trace element compositions. Calculated temperature and pressure from xenoliths are less scattered than T-P data calculated from single crystals. The calculated northeastern Angola paleogeotherm is consistent with a single value for the CA and the CU79 kimberlites. The differences in T-P values between these kimberlites may reflect the different way each kimberlite sampled the lithosphere. The lithospheric thickness calculated from the northeastern Angola paleogeotherm yielded 192 km. This research shows that the absence of fresh Mg-rich ilmenite in the Catoca kimberlite (one of the largest bodies of kimberlite in the world), as well as the occurrence of Fe3+-rich ilmenite, do not exclude the presence of diamond in the kimberlite. This is a new insight into the concept of ilmenite and diamond exploration, and leads to the conclusion that compositional attributes must be evaluated in light of textural attributes. 3 The tectonic setting of northeastern Angola was influenced by the opening of the South Atlantic Ocean, which reactivated deep NE–SW-trending faults during the early Cretaceous. The new interpretation of a kimberlitic pulse during the middle of the Aptian and the Albian, which provides precise data on the age of a significant diamond-bearing kimberlite pulse in Angola, will be an important guide in future exploration for diamonds. These findings contribute to a better understanding of the petrogenetic evolution of the kimberlites in northeastern Angola and have important implications for diamond exploration.

Cálculos geotermobarométricos se realizaron utilizando xenolitos del manto y cristales individuales de clinopiroxeno bien calibrados. Estudios geocronológicos e isotópicos se realizaron en aquellos casos donde se contaba con muestras de buena calidad disponibles. Los resultados indican que el manto subyacente experimentó diferentes condiciones de equilibrio. Eventos posteriores de enriquecimiento metasomático también apoyan la hipótesis de diferentes fuentes para estas kimberlitas. Los valores de U/Th sugieren al menos dos fuentes diferentes para los cristales de circón provenientes de la kimberlita de Catoca. Estas poblaciones diferentes puede reflejar diversas fuentes de magma kimberlítico, donde algunos de los granos podrían haberse producido en unidades del manto metasomatizadas y enriquecidas en U y Th, una idea que es coherente con las dos poblaciones de circón identificados con base en composiciones de elementos traza. Los valores de temperatura y presión calculados a partir de xenolitos muestran menor dispersión que los datos TP calculados a partir de cristales individuales. La paleogeoterma calculada para las kimberlitas de CA y CU79 se ajusta a un solo rango de valores. En general, las diferencias en los valores de PT entre estas kimberlitas pueden reflejar la forma diferencial como cada kimberlita muestrea la litosfera. El espesor de la litosfera calculado a partir de la paleogeoterma es de 192 km para el noreste de Angola. Esta investigación también demuestra que la ausencia de ilmenita fresca rica en Mg en la kimberlita de Catoca (una de las kimberlitas más grandes del mundo), así como la presencia de ilmenita rica en Fe3+ no excluye la presencia de diamantes en dicha kimberlita. Esta es una nueva 5 visión sobre el concepto de ilmenita en la exploración de diamantes, y conduce a la conclusión de que los estudios de composición deben estar acompañados de caracterizaciones texturales. El ambiente tectónico en el noreste de Angola fue influenciado por la apertura del Océano Atlántico Sur, lo cual reactivó profundas fallas con tren NE-SW durante el Cretácico temprano. La nueva interpretación de un pulso kimberlítico durante la mitad del Aptiense y Albiense proporciona datos precisos sobre la edad de un pulso kimberlítico diamantífero muy significativo en Angola, esta información será una guía importante para futura exploración de diamante. Estos resultados también contribuyen a una mejor comprensión de la evolución petrogenética de las kimberlitas en el noreste de Angola y tienen importantes implicaciones para la exploración de diamante. Palabras clave: kimberlita; Angola; ilmenita; granate; clinopiroxeno; diamante; circón; xenolito, manto, Lucapa. 6 TABLE OF CONTENTS ABSTRACT.................................................................................................................................3 RESUMEN…................................................................................................................................5 TABLE OF CONTENTS............................................................................................................7 LIST OF ORIGINAL PUBLICATIONS AND PARTICIPATION OF SERC IN EACH PUBLICATION……....................................................................................................................8 PREFACE...................................................................................................................................10

Devido à recusa da descolonização pela ditadura salazarista, a independência dos PALOP realizou-se quinze anos mais tarde do que na maioria das outras colónias europeias em África, na sequência da Revolução de 25 de Abril de 1974 em Portugal. Consequentemente, o contexto histórico-político da descolonização das colónias portuguesas caracteriza-se por algumas particularidades, nomeadamente lutas armadas de libertação, períodos de transição curtos, o êxodo dos colonos portugueses (Angola, Moçambique) e, depois da independência, a instalação de regimes monopartidários de orientação soviética que marcaram os primeiros quinze anos dos PALOP. Passados 35 anos desde a independência política, os caminhos percorridos pelos Cinco mostram semelhanças e diferenças, mudanças e continuidades e, apesar dos desenvolvimentos em algumas áreas, muitas esperanças que a independência criou ficaram ainda por realizar.

NFMA Working Paper No 41/P– Rome, Luanda 2009 Monitorização e Avaliação de Recursos Florestais Nacionais As florestas são essenciais para o bem-estar da humanidade. Constitui as fundações para a vida sobre a terra através de funções ecológicas, a regulação do clima e recursos hídricos e servem como habitat para plantas e animais. As florestas também fornecem uma vasta gama de bens essenciais, tais como madeira, comida, forragem, medicamentos e também, oportunidades para lazer, renovação espiritual e outros serviços. Hoje em dia, as florestas sofrem pressões devido ao aumento de procura de produtos e serviços com base na terra, o que resulta frequentemente na degradação ou transformação da floresta em formas insustentáveis de utilização da terra. Quando as florestas são perdidas ou severamente degradadas. A sua capacidade de funcionar como reguladores do ambiente também se perde. O resultado é o aumento de perigo de inundações e erosão, a redução na fertilidade do solo e o desaparecimento de plantas e animais. Como resultado, o fornecimento sustentável de bens e serviços das florestas é posto em perigo. Como resposta do aumento de procura de informações fiáveis sobre os recursos de florestas e árvores tanto ao nível nacional como Internacional l, a FAO iniciou uma actividade para dar apoio à monitorização e avaliação de recursos florestais nationais (MANF). O apoio à MANF inclui uma abordagem harmonizada da MANF, a gestão de informação, sistemas de notificação de dados e o apoio à análise do impacto das políticas no processo nacional de tomada de decisão.
