Resumo: The meso-cenozoic alkaline magmatism in Rio de Janeiro is represented by several plutonic/volcanic bodies, which occurred on W-E fracture and lineaments zones associated with the development of the Southeastern Brazilian Rift. One of main occurrences of those rocks is the Itatiaia Alkaline Complex (IAC), which consists of nepheline-syentite, dykes of trachyte/phonolite and magmatic-hydrothermal breccia. This paper shows petrographic and mineralogical caracterization (optical petrography, SEM-EDS and XRD analysis) of breccia. The breccia comprises lithoclasts of trachyte and cristaloclasts of biotite and K-feldspar immersed in microcrystalline groundmass. As hydrothermal mineral it were observed albite, carbonate, sanidine, clinochlore, pyrite (also in lithoclasts), biotite, apatite, fluorite, tourmaline, sericite, synchysite (À parisite), Nb-rutilo, sphalerite, epidote and orthoclase (adularia?). Minerals associated to weathering are gibbsite, melanterita and cancrinite. The new occurrences of fluorcarbonates (synchysite and parisite) and Nb-rutile at the IAC, are rare minerals commonly associated with hydrothermal alteration in alkaline-carbonatite complexes. The hydrothermal paragenesis, as well as comparison with data from other alkaline associations of Rio de Janeiro, suggests that the study rocks consist in late-magmatic/hydrothermal autobreccia, associated to epithermal systems of low sulphidation subtype and generated during interaction with low-temperature alkalic fluids. The description of fluorite and REE-minerals at IAC opens the possibility to find those minerals in other alkaline complex of Rio de Janeiro.

Uma das principais ocorrências dessas rochas é o Complexo Alcalino de Itatiaia (CAI), composto principalmente por nefelina-sienitos, diques de fonolito/traquito e brechas magmático-hidrotermais. Neste trabalho é feita a caracterização petrográfica e mineralógica (petrografia óptica, MEV-EDS, difratometria de raios X) destas brechas. As brechas de Itatiaia são constituídas por litoclastos de traquito e cristaloclastos de K-feldspato e biotita imersos em uma matriz microcristalina. Como minerais hidrotermais foram identificados na matriz albita, carbonato, sanidina, clinocloro, pirita (presente também nos litoclastos), biotita, apatita, fluorita, turmalina, sericita, sinchisita (À parisita), Nb-rutilo, esfalerita, epidoto e ortoclásio (adularia?). Minerais intempéricos são representados por gibbsita, melanterita e cancrinita. Destacam-se as ocorrências inéditas de fluorcarbonatos e Nb-rutilo no CAI, minerais raros associados à alteração hidrotermal em rochas alcalino-carbonatíticas. A paragênese hidrotermal e comparação com dados de outras sequências vulcânicas alcalinas do Rio de Janeiro, sugere-se que as rochas estudadas constituem autobrechas tardi-magmáticas/hidrotermais, relacionadas a sistemas epitermais do tipo baixa sulfetação e geradas a partir da interação com fluidos alcalinos de baixa temperatura. A observação de fluorita e minerais de ETR no CAI abre a possibilidade de ocorrência dos mesmos em outros maciços alcalinos do Rio de Janeiro.Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro2014-06-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.ufrj.br/index.php/aigeo/article/view/697010.11137/2014_1_05_16Anuário do Instituto de Geociências; Vol 37, No 1 (2014); 5-16Anuário do Instituto de Geociências; Vol 37, No 1 (2014); 5-161982-39080101-9759reponame:Anuário do Instituto de Geociências (Online)instname:Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro (UFRJ)instacron:UFRJporhttps://revistas.ufrj.br/index.php/aigeo/article/view/6970/5537Copyright (c) 2014 Anuário do Instituto de Geociênciashttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessPires, Gustavo Luiz CamposBongiolo, Everton MarquesNeumann, ReinerÁvila, Ciro Alexandre2017-01-23T22:42:35Zoai:www.revistas.ufrj.br:article/6970Revistahttps://revistas.ufrj.br/index.php/aigeo/indexPUBhttps://revistas.ufrj.br/index.php/aigeo/oaianuario@igeo.ufrj.br||1982-39080101-9759opendoar:2017-01-23T22:42:35Anuário do Instituto de Geociências (Online) - Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro (UFRJ)false
