Archean crust and metallogenic zones in the Amazonian Craton sensed by satellite gravity data

Abstract: The formation of ore deposits has been extensively studied from a shallow crust perspective. In contrast, the association of mineral systems with deep crustal structure of their host terranes remains relatively undisclosed, and there is evidence that processes throughout the lithosphere are coupled for their evolution. The current debate centers on the control of the regional deep crustal architecture in focusing and transferring fluids between geochemical reservoirs. Defining such architecture is not unequivo… Show more

“…Motta et al. (2019) suggest that CJD and BD are a single lithospheric unit with the same evolution at least up to 2.5 Ga based on Sm‐Nd models and crystallization ages. Likewise, p ‐wave velocity corroborates this theory due to the high‐velocity anomaly shared by BD and CJD.…”

“…Melting of the Archean mantle evidenced by greenstone belts influenced the rigidity of the crust, enhancing its mobility (Lourenço et al, 2016;Nebel et al, 2018). Motta et al (2019) suggest that CJD and BD are a single lithospheric unit with the same evolution at least up to 2.5 Ga based on Sm-Nd models and crystallization ages. Likewise, p-wave velocity corroborates this theory due to the high-velocity anomaly shared by BD and CJD.…”

“…Posterior forward modeling of the gravity effect of the rocks contained at the topographic surface (from the ETOPO1 model 11 lead to the topography effect and its removal from the simple Bouguer anomaly led to the Complete Bouguer Anomaly map. The processing pipeline is as in the previous publications 12,13 . The resulting Complete Bouguer Anomaly map and other data were interpreted qualitatively as maps.…”

“…1A), the Amazonian Craton consists of the largest Precambrian domain in the South American Platform (Almeida et al, 1981). This terrane hosts some of the most important mineral deposits of the world (e.g., Juliani et al, 2005;Bettencourt et al, 2016;Motta et al, 2019), as well as a significant geological record of the Paleoproterozoic period. The widespread Uatumã volcano-plutonic event (1.89-1.87 Ga) covers 1.2 million km 2 of the Amazonian Craton (Fig.…”
