“…Therefore, these data allow the timing of this tectonic phase of the Brasiliano orogeny to be broadly constrained to the time span 630-600 Ma. The 587 ± 8 Ma and 573 ± 4 Ma ages of the Cachoeirinha pluton and Cabanas granite, respectively, are consistent with field relationship and internal structures in these intrusions, which suggest that the Cachoeirinha pluton is older than the Cabanas granite (Neves et al, 2005). The lack of large mylonitic zones in the Cachoeirinha pluton and its NNE-trending orientation indicate that it was not intensely affected by strike-slip-related deformation.…”

“…Dextral and sinistral shear zones are consistently oriented NNE and ENE, respectively. These observations, in association with an AMS survey, are evidence that intrusion of the Cachoeirinha pluton occurred during bulk NW-SE shortening, with zones of non-coaxial shear developing locally (Neves et al, 2005).…”

“…These are the first U-Pb zircon ages reported so far for this portion of the southern domain. Along with available structural information (Neves et al, , 2005, they provide well-constrained age limits for the main period of tectonic activity related to the Brasiliano orogeny and shed new light on the age of basement rocks underlying the study area. In addition, we compare our new data with recently published data pertaining to north of the EPSZ (Brito Neves et al, 2001;Neves et al, 2006) to evaluate possible correlations between the central and southern domains.…”

“…De acordo com a metodologia aplicada por Archanjo et al (2002), Neves et al (2005), Mariano et al (2009) e Davis et al (2010, neste estudo foram coletados em cada estação de dois a três testemunhos cilíndricos com comprimento entre INTRODUÇÃO A Anisotropia de Susceptibilidade Magnética (ASM) tem sido empregada para obter informação dos alinhamentos dos grãos minerais, mesmo para rochas que são consideradas visualmente isotrópicas (Tarling e Hrouda, 1993;Borradaile e Henry, 1997;Bouchez, 1997). Na presença de um campo magnético, todas as substâncias naturais são magnetizáveis, embora com intensidades e orientações diferentes.…”

“…localizado no domínio Sul da Província Borborema (Figura 1). Devido à existência local de apenas foliações magmáticas no PC, foi utilizada a técnica de ASM para obtenção das foliações e lineações magnéticas (Borradaile e Henry, 1997;Neves et al, 2005;Mariano et al, 2009;Davis et al, 2010;Borradaile e Jackson, 2010). Associado à ASM, foi realizado no PC o levantamento magnetométrico, tratando-se de uma aplicação inédita destas ferramentas no modelamento de corpos ígneos.…”

Recebido em 8 de abril de 2015; aceito em 25 de maio de 2016Resumo O Plúton Cupira está localizado no Domínio Sul da Província Borborema, possui área aflorante de aproximadamente 300 km 2 e forma ovalada com leve alongamento na direção E-W. Com objetivo de determinar o modelo de alojamento do plúton e os alinhamentos magnético-estruturais, foi realizada a integração inédita de estudos de anisotropia de suscetibilidade magnética (ASM) e magnetometria. Os dados de ASM mostram que a susceptibilidade total apresenta variação de 0,105x10 -3 SI a 34,618x10 -3 SI, indicando caráter ferromagnético. O grau de anisotropia varia de 1,06 a 1,272 e apresenta correlação positiva com a susceptibilidade total. O parâmetro de forma varia de -0,802 a 0,897, com preponderância de elipsoides oblatos sobre prolatos, refletindo trama magnética planar. A maioria das lineações magnéticas possuem direção NE-SW, com caimentos suaves a fortes para NE e para SW. A foliação magnética varia de NE a NNE, com mergulhos moderados a fortes (30° a 86°). A porção central do corpo tem foliações magnéticas e magmáticas essencialmente concêntricas, com mergulhos fortes para o centro do plúton, associadas à lineações com caimento forte, sugerindo ser a zona de alimentação magmática. Os alinhamentos magnéticos reforçam as direções estruturais evidenciadas pela ASM. Estes dados favorecem a proposição de modelo de alojamento do Plúton Cupira a partir de uma zona de alimentação magmática central, com fluxo do magma distribuído de forma concêntrica, com geometria de intrusão similar a um lopólito.Palavras-chave: Anisotropia de Susceptibilidade Magnética (ASM); Foliação magnética; Lineação magnética; Magnetometria; Província Borborema. AbstractThe Cupira pluton, located in the southern domain of the Borborema province in the Garanhuns subdomain, crops out for approximately 300 km 2 . It is oval in shape and is slightly elongated in the E-W direction. In order to establish an emplacement model and to obtain structural-magnetic alignments, an integration of Anisotropy of Magnetic Susceptibility (AMS) and magnetometry data was carried out. AMS data show that total susceptibility ranges from 0.105x10 -3 SI to 34.618x10 -3 SI, indicating a ferromagnetic character. The degree of anisotropy varies from 1.06 to 1.272, with positive correlation with the total susceptibility. The shape parameter varies from -0.802 to 0.897, with predominance of oblate over prolate ellipsoids, reflecting a dominantly planar magnetic fabric. The magnetic lineations are distributed mainly in the NE-SW direction, with gentle to strong plunges to NE and SW. The magnetic foliation trends vary from NE to NNE, with moderate to strong dips (30° to 86°). The central portion of the pluton has concentric inward dipping foliations associated with strongly plunging lineations, suggesting a central magmatic conduct. The magnetic alignments corroborate with the structural trends obtained by AMS. These data favor the proposition of an emplacement model for the Cupira Puton from a central magmatic con...
