| dc.description.abstract | Rift-related volcanism is widely used in models of supercontinent reconstruction, while the associated metasomatic fluids provide information about the mantle-crust process during intracrustal melting events. The Paleoproterozoic/Mesoproterozoic Paramirim aulacogen corresponds to multiple intracratonic rift cycles that register many basin developing events. Intense volcanic activity is recorded in some rift events, but the volcanic lithofacies and their petrogenesis are poorly constrained. Herein, we present lithofaciological characterization, whole-rock and mineral chemistry, and U-Pb and Lu-Hf isotope data from the 1.58 Ga volcanic rocks. Trachytic and trachy-andesitic lava flows and primary to secondary volcaniclastic lithotypes characterize this volcanism. The primary volcaniclastic rocks resulted from direct volcanic activity and can be divided into pyroclastic and hydroclastic lithofacies associations. The pyroclastic lithotypes correspond to air-fall, density currents and blockand-ash flow deposits formed in explosive eruptions; hydroclastic lithotypes are represented by hyaloclastites and peperites, reflecting effusive eruptions and interactions between magma, water and sediments. The secondary volcaniclastic lithotypes resulted from late-stage reworking processes and consist of debris flows, ephemeral streams associated with high energy and gravitational flow deposits. The lava flows show well-preserved primary volcanic features, such as magma flow textures and euhedral phenocrysts. Based on petrographic and chemical characteristics, associated with negative ɛHf(t) values, we infer that high melt rate of an ancient crust, previously metasomatized by H2O-rich alkaline mantle-derived fluids, generated the alkalic ferroan lavas. These fluids promoted potassic and sodic metasomatism that affected all the volcanic rocks, modifying the chemistry of the feldspars to pure orthoclase (Or96-98) and albite (Ab98-100). In some lavas, a higher concentration of Na-rich fluids synthesized aegirine at a minimum temperature of 200 °C and promoted its peralkaline character. The potassic-sodic metasomatism influenced the volcano-sedimentary sequence of the Pajeú Group and the oldest rocks of the basement but did not affect the overlying sedimentary sequences, indicating that fluids ceased with the end of volcanism. We suggest that the H2O-rich alkaline fluids arose by focused degassing in response to a rising asthenospheric mantle during the Calymmian rift of the Paramirim aulacogen. | pt_BR |
