Petrology of Gameleira potassic lamprophyres, São Francisco Craton [PDF]
Gameleira lamprophyres are dykes and mafic microgranular enclaves associated with the shoshonitic Gameleira monzonite. This association belongs to the Paleoproterozoic alkaline magmatism from Serrinha nucleus, northeast Brazil.

Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Isotopic U-Pb titanite and monazite data from the southern São Francisco craton better constrain the timing of the tectono-thermal event that led to the amalgamation of the craton and the crust that forms the basement of its fringing orogenic belts in ...

Return to Rodinia? Moderate to high palaeolatitude of the São Francisco/Congo craton at 920 Ma [PDF]
Moderate to high palaeolatitudes recorded in mafic dykes, exposed along the coast of Bahia, Brazil, are partly responsible for some interpretations that the São Francisco/Congo craton was separate from the low-latitude Rodinia supercontinent at about ...

A review of 3.66 to 2.77 Ga crustal differentiation in the northern São Francisco Craton, Brazil
The Archaean crustal evolution of the northern São Francisco Craton (SFC) reveals significant similarity with Kaapvaal-Zimbabwe and Pilbara, cratons, especially before 3.0 Ga. Likewise, compiled geochronological and Nd-Sr-Hf isotope data suggest that the
