Abstract

The relationship between the Santa Quitéria Magmatic Arc - AMSQ, Ceará Central Domain (northern portion of the Borborema Province), and the sequences of marginal metasedimentary rocks to the arc deserves attention on the establishement of paleogeographic and geotectonic framework evolution of this broad feature. The presente paper was realized over three (03) sections cross to the arc, in order to analyze through isotopic and lithogeochemical data the provenance of the above-mentioned metasedimentary rocks. It includes para and orthoderivative lithologies belonging to AMSQ, to Grupo Ceará (Canindé and Independência Units) and to polycyclic basement. Inserted in AMSQ, neoproterozoic granites associated with tangential phase are represented in research by monzogranite and quartz monzonite. Multi-elements diagrams signal on the orthoderivated a strong negative anomaly of P in all samples, wich may reflect the fractionation of the apatite. Negative anomalies of Sr and Ti in granites can be attributed to the fractionation of plagioclase and the Nb in orthogneisses may be the indicative of crustal sources contribution to the magmatic process. The samples of sedimentary origin include lithologies predominantly acidic having as possible protolith shales and greywacke. The Eu/Eu* values in those rocks range from 0.38 to 0.82, similar to the patterns of PAAS (Pos-Archean Austrália Share), implying in crustal derivation on these. In its turn, the reason (Gd / Yb)N values between 1.1 and 1.9 (<2.0), being indicative of derivation of post-Archean rocks. Whole-rock Sm-Nd isotopic data gave TDM ages interval between 1.25Ga and 2.41Ga indicate participation from multiple sources in the formation of neoproterozoic land. Negative values of ƐNd(t) and positive values of ƐSr(t) indicate for most of the samples a marked participation of metasedimentary sources and / or meta-igneous with long periodes of crustal residence in the genesis of those. All samples are continental derivation, whose degree of reworking inferred to, mixing and heterogeneity of crusts involved during the Brasiliano Cycle. In geochronological terms, ages of U-Pb in zircon with intervals between 2.39 and 623.7Ma obtained from rocks of the Canindé e Independência Unitis with 807 Ma suggest multiple source for the genesis of the rocks. Such characteristics can be attributed to the occurrence of several regional geotectonic events and involving the participation of Archean terrains (little contribution); paleoproterozoic (greater contribution and participation of TTG land type); the rifting period 1.7 - 1.8 Ga; a marked participation of the Brasiliano event and further possible involvement of mesoproterozoic cross track. The ages of U-Pb in zircon obtained for the samples GH001 (2.39Ga) and GH017 (2.15Ga) (Canindé Unit) allow us to suggest that these represent "parts" or "windows" of the basement, suggestive of the presence of new areas paleoproterozoic in the geological context on the area of study.
