Item Síntesis geocronológica de la evolución paleozoica inferior del borde sur occidental de Gondwana en las Sierras Pampeanas, Argentina(Acta geológica hispánica, 1997) Baldo, Edgardo G.; Saavedra, Julio; Rapela, Carlos W.; Pankhurst, R.J.; Casquet Martín, César; Galindo Francisco, María Del CarmenLas Sierras Pampeanas Argentinas constituyen un buen registro de la evolución Pre-Devónica del margen sur occidental del Gondwana. Los trabajos multidisciplinarios recientes y especialmente la información geocronológica, recolectada a lo largo de una transecta E-W de aproximadamente unos 500 km, permiten precisar la edad y los rasgos geológicos de los dos principales ciclos tectono-magmáticos involucrados en la evolución paleozoica inferior de esta parte del basamento argentino. El Ciclo Orogénico Pampeano comienza con una etapa de sedimentación en un margen pasivo (560-530 Ma), que evoluciona hacia una situación de margen activo con generación de un arco magmático tipo Andino, a los 533 - 528 Ma. El ciclo finaliza hacia los 523 Ma. en una colisión de tipo ortogonal, con un importante engrosamiento cortical, anatexis regional y generación de granitos "S". El "Ciclo Orogénico Famatiniano" se inicia a los 499-496 Ma y se caracteriza por la implantación de un arco magmático intemo de tipo trondhjemitico, seguido hacia el oeste por un importante arco magmático externo, contemporáneo con el anterior y formado por granodioritas de tipo "1" y grandes batolitos graníticos de tipo "S". Durante el Famatiniano tiene también lugar la formación de una cuenca de retroarco ensiálica con magmatismo básico. El final de este ciclo (450-420 Ma) está marcado por el desarrollo de importantes fajas de milonitización que marcan la colisión oblicua del Terreno Precordillera respecto al margen de GondwanaItem U–Pb SHRIMP zircon dating of Grenvillian metamorphism in Western Sierras Pampeanas (Argentina): Correlation with the Arequipa-Antofalla craton and constraints on the extent of the Precordillera Terrane(Gondwana research, 2006) Casquet Martín, César; Pankhurst, R.J.; Fanning, C.M.; Baldo, Edgardo G.; Galindo Francisco, María Del Carmen; Rapela, Carlos W.; González Casado, José Manuel; Dahlquist, Juan A.Metamorphism of Grenvillian age (ca. 1.2 Ga; U–Pb zircon dating) is recognized for the first time in the Western Sierras Pampeanas (Sierra de Maz). Conditions reached granulite facies (ca. 780 °C and ca. 780 MPa). Comparing geochronological and petrological characteristics with other outcrops of Mesoproterozoic basement, particularly in the northern and central Arequipa-Antofalla craton, we suggest that these regions were part of a single continental crustal block from Mesoproterozoic times, and thus autochthonous or parautochthonous to Gondwana.Item Datación U-Pb SHRIMP de circones detríticos en paranfibolitas neoproterozoicas de las secuencia Difunta Correa (Sierras Pampeanas Occidentales, Argentina)(Geogaceta, 2005) Rapela, Carlos W.; Pankhurst, R.J.; Casquet Martín, César; Fanning, C.M.; Galindo Francisco, María Del Carmen; Baldo, Edgardo G.The Neoproterozoic Difunta Correa meta-sedimentary sequence (DCSS) of Western Sierras Pampeanas is a cover to a rejuvenated Grenvillian basement. The Western Sierras Pampeanas are allegedly part of the exotic Precordillera Terrane, which was accreted to the proto-Andean margin of Gondwana in lower Palaeozoic times. A para-amphibolite from this sedimentary sequence contains abundant zircons mostly consisting of detrital igneous cores with a metamorphic overgrowth. The latter formed at 439±34 Ma, i.e., during the Famatinian orogeny, although mantles are also found with mixed Grenvillian - Ordovician ages due to Pb-loss. Ages of igneous cores are ~ 625 Ma , 1050-1150 Ma and 1200-1500 Ma with a peak at c. 1.4 Ga. The ~ 625 Ma group zircon is of Gondwanan provenance and this age is an upper value for the age of the host amphibolite. An age between 580 Ma and 620 Ma is inferred for the DCSS. The provenance of zircons between 1.05 Ga and c. 1.2 Ga probably lies in the underlying Grenvillian basement. However zircons older than 1.2 Ga were derived from an unexposed area: palaeogeographical considerations suggest that this area could be either in Laurentia (trans-Laurentia belt) or in southern Amazonia (Rondonia- San Ignacio belt), both 1.3-1.5 Ga in age.Item Dataciones Rb/Sr en el complejo plutónico Táliga Barcarrota (CPTB) (Badajoz)(Geogaceta, 1990) Galindo Francisco, María Del Carmen; Portugal Ferreira, Martín R.; Casquet Martín, César; Priem, H.N.A.The Plutonic Complex of Táliga-Barcarrota crops out in the core of the Olivenza-Monesterio anticline, where it intrudes the Upper Precambrian and Lower Cambrian metasediments. As this Complex is made of a) the Circular Pluton of Barcarrota, where the core is constituted by gabbros, diorites and pegmatoides and the outer rim shows quartz monzonites, quartz syenites and hypersolvus granites, and b) the NW-SE elongated Táliga Massif, almost entirely made of biotite orthogneisses, the sampling and the analyses were done in accordance with this double character of the Complex. Taking into account the K/Ar ages obtained on amphiboles, biotites and muscovites and the two Rb/Sr "isochrones" (whole rocks), it is concluded that 1) the Táliga Massif has an intrusion age of 525±2.5 M.A and a subsecuent pervasive recrystallization during the first hercynian phase, 385 ± 11 M.A, and 2) the Barcorrota Complex has an intrusion age of 505±5 M.A, as it is shown by the K/Ar and the Rb/Sr systematics. Also the Barcarrota Plutonic rocks have lower initial Sr87/Sr86 (O,7031±5X1O-6 than the Táliga orthogneisses (0.70836±9Xl0-5) pointing to a mantle versus. Crostal origin for both groups of magmas.Item The Mesoproterozoic Maz terrane in the Western Sierras Pampeanas, Argentina, equivalent to the Arequipa–Antofalla block of southern Peru? Implications for West Gondwana margin evolution(Gondwana research, 2008) Casquet Martín, César; Pankhurst, R.J.; Rapela, Carlos W.; Galindo Francisco, María Del Carmen; Fanning, C.M.; Chiaradia, Massimo; Baldo, Edgardo G.; González Casado, José Manuel; Dahlquist, Juan A.The rocks of Sierra de Maz and Sierra del Espinal (Western Sierras Pampeanas) represent pre-Famatinian (Ordovician) basement. Isotope compositions (Nd and Pb) of metasedimentary rocks and SHRIMP U–Pb dating of detrital zircons, combined with other geological evidence, show that three parallel N–S domains can be recognized. The central Maz Domain contains pre-Grenvillian metasedimentary rocks deposited between 1.2 and 1.6 Ga, that underwent Grenvillian granulite facies metamorphism and were intruded by mafic igneous rocks and massif-type anorthosites. Metasedimentary rocks have high Nd TDM ages (1.7–2.7 Ga) and very radiogenic Pb (μ=9.8–10.2), suggesting provenance from reworked early Proterozoic or Archean continental crust. The domains to the east and west of the Maz Domain consist of three metasedimentary sequences with Nd TDM ages between 1.2 and 1.6 Ga and variably radiogenic Pb (μ=9.6–10.0). U–Pb SHRIMP dating of detrital zircons, Nd TDM model ages and comparison with other data suggest that these sequences are post-Grenvillian, i.e., Neoproterozoic and/or early Paleozoic. The Maz Domain is interpreted as a suspect terrane similar to the northern Arequipa–Antofalla craton that forms the basement of the Central Andes; both underwent Grenville-age orogeny and were probably once continuous along the western margin of Amazonia (West Gondwana).Item The Aguablanca Cu-Ni(PGE) intraplutonic ore deposit (Extremadura, Spain). Isotope (Sr, Nd, S) consfraints on the source and evolution of magmas and sulfides(Geogaceta, 1998) Casquet Martín, César; Eguiluz, L.; Galindo Francisco, María Del Carmen; Tornos Arroyo, Fernando; Velasco Roldán, FranciscoThe Aguablanca Cu-Ni(PGE) ore is a case of an intraplutonic ore deposito It is hosted by mafic and ultramafic cumulates of the Aguablanca Stock, which is part of the larger calcalkaline Santa Olalla Plutonic Complex of 359±18Ma age (Rb-Sr whole rock determination). Primary mineralization consists of pyrrothite, pentlandite and chalcopyrite and resulted from the crystallization of an inmiscible sulfiderich liquid. Several stages of hydrothermal alteration are superimposed. Isotope work on the host igneous rocks (Sr, Nd) and the ore (S), suggests that contamination with a crustalsource took place at some depth before final emplacement of the plutons (ε Nd360= -5.8 to -7.2; Sr(360) = 0.7082 to 0.7103; (δ14S(sulfides) near + 7.4‰). Assimilation - fractional crystallization (AFC) processes are invoked to explain de chemical variability of magmas.Item The Aguablanca Ni–(Cu–PGE) deposit, SW Spain Ossa Morena Zone: Lat. 37°57’ N, Long. 6°11’ W(Ore geology reviews, 2005) Martínez Chaparro, César; Tornos Arroyo, Fernando; Casquet Martín, César; Galindo Francisco, María Del CarmenItem The Río de la Plata craton and the assembly of SW Gondwana(Earth-science reviews, 2007) Rapela, Carlos W.; Pankhurst, R.J.; Casquet Martín, César; Fanning, C.M.; Baldo, Edgardo G.; González Casado, José Manuel; Galindo Francisco, María Del Carmen; Dahlquist, Juan A.The extent and nature of the Archaean–Palaeoproterozoic craton of Río de la Plata of southern South America, a major but poorly understood crustal component in Neoproterozoic plate reconstructions, as well as the depositional, metamorphic and magmatic history of the surrounding orogenic belts, are reviewed and reassessed, in part through the analysis of material recovered from deep boreholes in western Argentina that penetrated Palaeozoic cover into basement. U–Pb SHRIMP zircon ages for these samples of 2162±6 Ma (diorite), 2189±14 Ma (amphibolitic schist) and 2088±6 Ma (granite) encompass the range of ages determined for the major Palaeoproterozoic orogenic events in the exposed parts of the craton close to the Atlantic coasts of Uruguay and Argentina. Taken together with the geochemical and Nd-isotope characteristics of these samples and an olivine gabbro from a further borehole that failed to yield zircon, these results strongly suggest that the Río de la Plata craton is extremely uniform in its dominant chrono-tectonic and lithological make-up, and that it extends westwards as far as the 535–520 Ma Pampean orogenic belt, against which it probably has a fault contact. U–Pb SHRIMP zircon detrital age patterns are presented for representative metasedimentary samples from the craton cover in the Tandilia belt of eastern Argentina, and from the Pampean (Cambrian) and Famatinian (Ordovician) belts to the west of the craton. Whereas the oldest cover rocks in Tandilia clearly show material derived from the underlying craton, such detritus only appears in the younger (Ordovician) units to the west. Sedimentary protoliths in the Pampean belt were dominated by Neoproterozoic (broadly ∼600 Ma) and late Mesoproterozoic (broadly ∼1100 Ma) provenance, and derivation from the Río de la Plata craton is highly unlikely. Regional considerations, including previously published zircon data, palaeocurrent and structural data, suggest that these rocks must have had an origin within Gondwana-forming blocks, for which the closest identifiable sources are ‘Brazilian’ and ‘African’ (Namaqua–Natal). Consequently, the preferred model for the Pampean orogeny is that the Río de la Plata craton reached its present position by large-scale dextral strike-slip movement against fore-arc sedimentary sequences that had developed on the southern and western margins of the Kalahari craton during the Early Cambrian. In the final stage the displaced sedimentary sequences outboard of the RPC collided with the Mesoproterozoic Western Sierras Pampeanas terrane, which was at the time attached to the large Amazonia craton and other smaller continental blocks, such as Arequipa–Antofalla and Río Apa. Protracted relative displacement of the RPC after the Pampean Orogeny led to its final position.Item Dating of hydrothermal events in the Sierra del Guadarrama, Iberian Hercynian Belt. Spain(Geogaceta, 1992) Caballero Donoso, José María; Casquet Martín, César; Galindo Francisco, María Del Carmen; González Casado, José Manuel; Snelling, N.; Tornos Arroyo, FernandoPreliminary results are presented on the age of the hydrothermal activity recorded in the Sierra del Guadarrama. They are among the first data generated by the K-Ar Spectrometry Lab. of the CSIS-UCM at Madrid. Hydrothermalites include different types of Iodes (W, W-Sn, As, Cu, Pb-Zn, barren quartz, among others), greisens, skarns, episyenites and quartz-chlorite-sericite replacements. Recorded activity spans from ca. 300 to 100M.a. with five well defined "Peaks»: 1) 300- 290M.a. (greisens and many W Iodes), 2) 267 M.a (W-Iode related to porphyry dykes), 3) 260- 220M.a. (Fe-(Ca) skarn and episyenites), 4) 151-156M.a. (quartz-chlorite-sericite replacements, i.e. phyllic alteration), and 5) 100M.a. (long barren quartz lodes related to strike-slip faults). This episodic activity is temptatively correlated with important geotectonic events involving the Iberian Peninsula. [RESUMEN] Se presentan los resultados preliminares de la datación de la actividad hidrotermal en la Sierra de Guadarrama, obtenidos en el laboratorio de Espectrometría K-Ar del CSIC-UCM en Madrid. Los productos de la actividad hidrotermal incluyen distintos tipos de filones (W, W-Sn, As, Cu, Pb-Zn, cuarzo estéril, entre otros), greisens, skarns, episienitas y reemplazamientos por cuarzo-clorita-sericita. La actividad registrada se extiende desde casi 300 hasta los 100M.a. con cinco «picos» bien definidos: 1) 300-290M.a. (greisens y la mayoría de los filones de W), 2) 267M.a. (filón de W relacionado con diques de pórfido), 3) 260-220M.a. (skarn de Fe-(Ca) y episienitas), 4) 757 -156M.a. (alteraciones filíticas=remplazamientos por cuarzo-clorita-sericita) y 5) aprox. 700M.a. (filones de cuarzo estéril en relación con fallas de desgarre). Esta actividad episódica se correlaciona tentativamente con importantes eventos geotectónicos en los que se vio implicada la Península Ibérica.Item Datos preliminares sobre el metamorfismo de la Sierra de Pie de Palo, Sierras Pampeanas Occidentales (Argentina)(Geogaceta, 1998) Baldo, Edgardo G.; Casquet Martín, César; Galindo Francisco, María Del CarmenThe Sierra de Pie de Palo belongs to the Western Sierras Pampeanas. Although still poorly known in detail, the sierra consists of a relatively autochthonous sequence of shelf sediments metamorphosed to low grade (the Caucete Group) and an allochthonous complex of polymetamorphic medium-to-high grade igneous and sedimentary rocks thrust towards the west and northwest. Mylonitization is widespread. Radiometric dating by different methods (U-Pb, 4°Ar/39Ar and K-Ar) suggests that at least two tectonothermal events are present in the allochthonous: Grenville (ca. 1 Ga) and Famatinian (480-312Ma). Metamorphism has been studied in a Ca-rich pelite with a complex mineralogical composition (Qtz, Ms, Pg, Bt, Grt, Ky, Hbl, St, Rt, 111, PI, Ep). This rock is a mylonite. Three metamorphic stages are recognized: the first two correspond to a prograde M, metamorphism under relatively high P/T conditions (peak at 13kb and about 600ºC). The second is related to mylonitization (Mm 1) with T - 575ºC and P < 1 Okb. We suggest that this rock is polymetamorphic, M, metamorphism beirig probably related to the Grenville orogeny and Mmyl to the Famatinian orogeny.
