Resumo: Several gold works dating back from the XVII Century are located over the Congonhas Lineament, a NW-trending steep NE-dipping regional structure composed by oblique slip (left-lateral reverse) én-echelon anastomosing shear zones. Hydrothermal alteration was concentrated on ductile to ductile-ruptile shear zones controlled by rheologic contrasts. Carbonatic alteration is widespread, surrounding chloritization and sericitization zones which envelop cores with silica and sulfide alteration. Grunerite and stilplomelane are present in BIFs close to the outer boundaries of the sulfide zones. The sulfide zone has an outer halo where pyrhotite is the dominant sulfide, followed by an intermediate zone with pyrite, chalcopyrite and pyrhotite. At the nuclei, arsenopyrite is the most common sulfide. If the age of the lower (and mineralised) section of the metavolcanossedimentary belt is Siderian, as its upper part, then gold mineralizations at Congonhas Lineament are Proterozoic instead of Archean.

A alteração hidrotermal se concentrou em zonas de cisalhamento dúcteis a dúctil-rúpteis controladas por contrastes litológicos (BIFs e metapelitos intercalados a metabasaltos). A alteração carbonática é a mais volumosa, ocorrendo do núcleo até as bordas da região hidrotermalisada. Zonas de cloritização e sericitização se seguem, circundando um núcleo de silicificação e sulfetação. Grunerita e stilpnomelana ocorrem nos BIFs, tanto nas proximidades das zonas de sulfe-tação quanto em suas partes mais externas. As zonas de sulfetação são formadas por halos externos onde a pirrotita é o sulfeto dominante, seguindo-se zonas intermediárias com pirita, calcopirita e pirrotita. No núcleo das zonas sulfetadas predomina a arsenopirita. É possível que a mineralização aurífera do Lineamento Congonhas seja Proterozoica e não Arqueana, caso a porção estratigráfica inferior e mineralizada do cinturão metavulcanossedimentar seja de idade Sideriana, como a superior.Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro2012-12-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.ufrj.br/index.php/aigeo/article/view/693610.11137/2012_2_55_64Anuário do Instituto de Geociências; Vol 35, No 2 (2012); 55-64Anuário do Instituto de Geociências; Vol 35, No 2 (2012); 55-641982-39080101-9759reponame:Anuário do Instituto de Geociências (Online)instname:Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro (UFRJ)instacron:UFRJporhttps://revistas.ufrj.br/index.php/aigeo/article/view/6936/5503Copyright (c) 2012 Anuário do Instituto de Geociênciashttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessCorrêa Neto, Atlas VasconcelosAlmeida, Antônio Modesto deCaputo Neto, VitorGuerrero, Júlia Campos2017-01-23T22:34:48Zoai:www.revistas.ufrj.br:article/6936Revistahttps://revistas.ufrj.br/index.php/aigeo/indexPUBhttps://revistas.ufrj.br/index.php/aigeo/oaianuario@igeo.ufrj.br||1982-39080101-9759opendoar:2017-01-23T22:34:48Anuário do Instituto de Geociências (Online) - Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro (UFRJ)false
