O Programa de Pós-Graduação em Geologia e Geoquímica (PPGG) do Instituto de Geociências (IG) da Universidade Federal do Pará (UFPA) surgiu em 1976 como uma necessidade de desmembramento do então já em pleno desenvolvimento Curso de Pós-Graduação em Ciências Geofísicas e Geológicas (CPGG), instalado ainda em 1973 nesta mesma Universidade. Foi o primeiro programa stricto sensu de Pós-Graduação (mestrado e doutorado) em Geociências em toda Amazônia Legal. Ao longo de sua existência, o PPGG tem pautado sua atuação na formação na qualificação de profissionais nos níveis de Mestrado e Doutorado, a base para formação de pesquisadores e profissionais de alto nível. Neste seu curto período de existência promoveu a formação de 499 mestres e 124 doutores, no total de 623 dissertações e teses.

Acúmulo e exportação de carbono, nitrogênio, fósforo e metais em canais de maré dos manguezais de Marapanim, Costa Norte Brasileira
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2020-12-18) MATOS, Christiene Rafaela Lucas de; SILVA, José Francisco Berrêdo Reis da; http://lattes.cnpq.br/1338038101910673; https://orcid.org/0000-0002-8590-2462; COHEN, Marcelo Cancela Lisboa; http://lattes.cnpq.br/8809787145146228
In this study, we assessed the potential of intertidal mudflat sediments along mangrove forest to accumulate and export carbon, nutrients (N and P) and metals (Fe and Mn), in addition to examine the influence of the Amazonian seasonal rainfall patterns on the physicochemical conditions, diagenetic processes and exchange of nutrients and metals along the sediment-water interface (SWI) in intertidal mudflats fringed by pristine mangroves. The study was carried out in the Marapanim River estuarine system (northern Brazil), which is fringed by extensive areas of well-developed mangroves, part of the largest continuous and best preserved mangrove forest in the world, located approximately 200 km from west of the mouth of the Amazon River. The results of this work are presented in two articles. The first deals with the potential of stocks and accumulation of COT, NT and PT in intertidal mudflat sediments, in addition we investigate the potential sources of sedimentary organic matter (OM). The second assesses the influence of seasonal rainfall pattern on physicochemical properties, the diagenetic processes and the diffusive fluxes of nutrients at the SWI in the Marapanim mangrove creeks. During wet season the salinity values decreased as a consequence of the increase in rainfall, with a dilution-mixing zone in the top sediment (<15 cm). In the dilution-mixing zone, Fe (III) and Mn (IV) reduction are the dominant anaerobic respiratory processes in the sediments. The redox zonation of sediments oscillated in response to the rainfall patterns, with the highest concentrations of Fe2+ and Mn2+ in deeper sediment layers during the dry season. Under suboxic conditions, the mudflat sediments act as a source of Fe2+, Mn2+, NH4 +, and PO4 3- to the water column, and these fluxes were driven by rainfall. The results indicated that mangrove-fringed mudflats are quite effective in retaining carbon, nutrients and iron in sediment solid phases than exporting to the coastal waters, while can potentially be a significant contributor to the oceanic Mn cycle. The potential of these mangrove creeks to accumulate these elements is directly related to grain size, sources and susceptibility of OM degradation. In addition, temporal variability in pyrite formation revealed that the solid phase retention mechanisms are also susceptible to seasonal effects, with lower concentrations of chromium-reducible sulfur (CRS, mainly pyrite fraction) during the dry season. Therefore, we show that these seasonal variabilities implied substantial changes of physicochemical properties and the diagenetic processes, affecting the release of metals and nutrients from the SWI and their accumulation in the sediment.

The shrimp culture (shrimp farms) is one of the activities of aquaculture widely employed in Brazilian estuaries and mangroves. The shrimps are fed with phosphate enriched compounds. Thus, the effluent produced by farms can accelerate the eutrophication process. An increase of shrimp farming has been seen in Coreaú River Estuary, state of Ceará, but data about environmental quality are scarce to allow monitoring of the region. The aim of the present research was to assess the contribution of the shrimp farms on phosphorus input to the Coreaú River Estuary. The main forms of phosphorus: bioavailable (P-Exch); bound to iron oxy-hydroxides (P-Fe), on the biogenic, autigênica carbonates and apatite (P-CFAP), on the detrital apatite (P-FAP) and organic phosphorus (P-Org) and as well as total organic carbon (%TOC) and chlorophyll-a were determined in samples of surface sediments and cores from the margins of the Coreaú River Estuary. The high concentrations of P-Total in surface sediments indicated the need for monitoring studies. The larger fraction was P-Fe, composing 30% of P-Total, approximately. These results indicate the ability of the iron oxy-hydroxides to immobilize or release phosphorus. The contribution of the farm’s effluents was evidenced by higher concentrations of P-Org in points adjacent to discharge areas. In sediment cores, the highest P-Total concentrations were found predominantly in fine sediments (silt and clay), with the P-Fe, P-CFAP and P-FAP fractions being the main contributors. The sedimentation rates and concentration increases of P-Total indicate the possible period of deforestation and starting or maximum activity of shrimp farms in the end of the 1980 and mid 1990, respectively. High phosphorus concentrations as well as %TOC and chlorophyll-a levels suggested a significant anthropogenic contribution, associated with a high potential for eutrophication.

Industrial and domestic waste cause serious problems for the environment. Industries treatment of kaolin have been deposited reject in large lakes of sedimentation and this has caused accidents as occurred in august/2007 and February/2008. The large volume of kaolin in the lakes sedimentation invaded lakes and rivers from Rio Capim, Para region. This fact resulted in the pollution of waters and death of fish. This problem can be minimized with the use of kaolin reject (KR) in the synthesis of new materials. In this work was used KR treated with organic acid (glycine at concentrations of 5%, 10% and 15% , being obtained the adsorbents: KR-gly-5, KRgly-10 and KL-gly-15, respectively) and mixture NaClO4:HClO4 (proportions 1:50 and 1:75, being obtained the adsorbents KR-NaClO4:HClO4-1:50 and KR- NaClO4:HClO4- 1:75, respectively) and KR as source of Si and Al in the synthesis of zeolites. The materials were characterized by chemical composition and XRD, FTIR, DTA-TG and SEM data. These materials were studied in adsorption process for CrO4 2- from aqueous solutions. The results obtained indicate that the CrO4 2- is adsorbed by kaolin reject and other materials from KR followed this order: KR-gly-10> KR-gly-5>KR-gly-15>KG> KR- NaClO4:HClO4- 1:75> zeolites.

The search for efficient methodologies to control environmental pollution, as well as the development of technologies in the fields chemical, physical and biological have been widely discussed in order to produce efficient alternatives to improve the quality of life and control of chemical pollutants (organic or inorganic) that over the years are being dumped into the environment so as inconsequential by households and industries. Thus, it is important to know about the adsorptive behavior of metals in the soil, because high concentrations of metals produce adverse effects on the environment. Molybdenum is an essential element for biological functions of plants and animals, but in high concentrations in the body can lead to bone deformities, anemia, abnormal liver and lead to death.The possibility of interaction of organic-inorganic compounds (Humic Acid, Urea andH2SO4) in sediments "in nature” from the region of Acre, was investigated with the aim of evaluating the possibility of applying these materials in adsorption processes in molybdate aqueous solutions. The natural samples used in this study have a high content of clay minerals, mainly smectite, kaolinite and low content of primary minerals such as feldspar and quartz. All samples "in nature" were characterized by XRD, XRF, FTIR, SEM and pHH2O and pHKCl. The modification with inorganic acid concentrations (0.25, 0.5, 1 and 1.5mol.L-1), temperature and contact time are important parameters in the process of delamination of the clay minerals. As the use of organic compounds such as urea and humic acid were efficient in the amorphization. The study by XRD in the modified samples show a change in the structure when H2SO4 at the concentrations used, but this fact is only observed for 15Å peak, characteristic of smectite, all other peaks showed no significant change. The synthesis of organic compounds promoted the amorphization of the smectite peak reference. Thus, as the sediment naturally has clay (smectite, kaolinite), confirmed by XRD and the presence of iron, indicating a transition to the montmorillonite nontronite, and with isomorphous substitution of iron is expected to strong interaction between the adsorption molybdate fractions modified with respect to the natural. The introduction of H+ due to the modification process with sulfuric acid promoted the replacement of calcium ions in the structure confirmed by semi-quantitative analysis performed by EDS. SEM analysis indicated the presence in natural samples cluster morphology, this fact was not observed in the modified samples, which was observed delamination and amorphization. The equilibrium conditions in the adsorption process were investigated in which it is inserted, time of 2 h and the solution pH was measured before and after adsorption. The equilibrium datawere represented by theisotherm models Langmuir, Freundlich and Sips. The adsorption process had better performance in the concentrations for samples and S10H15 S10UH. The humic acid modified samples contained higher Qmáx =3.43, values regression fit to the model obtained indicate Freundlich efficient adsorption process, the modified samples effective adsorbed molybdate anion in comparison to natural sample.

Kaolin waste, generated in abundance by companies from Pará state, has caused to the environmental problems. In order to give input on the reuse of this waste was evaluated retention of nitrate ions on kaolin waste natural and modified with urea and studied the equilibrium of adsorption processes at solid-solution interfaces. The materials were characterized by X-ray diffraction and X-ray fluorescence (XRF and XRD, respectiely), IR spectroscopy (FTIR spectrum), scanning electron microscopy and estimated data of surface charge. Adsorption experiments of nitrate ions in the waste natural kaolin (CRJN) and modified with urea (CRJU) were performed without pH adjustment. H + concentrations were measured by direct potentiometry before and after the process of adsorption and equilibrium concentrations of nitrate were measured by ion chromatography. The results indicated: high purity kaolin waste; formation of kaolinite-urea complex confirmed by XRD reflection at 2  8,28o e d = 1.068 nm and the FTIR spectrum with the appearance of a broad band of low intensity, containing two discrete shoulder around 3500-3380 cm-1, corresponding to asymmetric and symmetric vibrations of the group-NH2 of urea-kaolinite, superimposed to the vibration of water. surface charges data, suggesting that the materials have a higher capacity to adsorb cations than anions, but depending on the concentration of H + and OH- on adsorbent, the hydroxyl surface can be protonated yielding positive charges that are reflected in the adsorption of anions, obtaining significant adsorbed nitrate, both in CRJN as CRJU (0,27-0,73 and from 0,18-0,70 3.5 mg g-1, respectively), the separation coefficient (RL) of from 0,28 to 0,828 change in free energy ΔG ° = -2,094 to + 0,445 kJ mol-1 for CRJN and ΔG° = -1,036 to + 1,32 kJ mol-1 for CRJN molecule. The data from RL indicated that the adsorption processes are less favorable in most points of the adsorption processes and based on the results of the free energy change (ΔG º) was showed low spontaneity to no spontaneity and adsorption processes are physical.

Torrential rains in the Amazon region provide large leaching of micronutrients, which can be controlled from the adsorption reactions of micronutrients in clay minerals. Studies on the geochemical properties of sediment containing high concentrations of clay minerals in the adsorption reactions of micronutrients is a research topic of great importance considering the proven use of clay minerals with a wide range of applications in various processes and procedures adsorption, involving the remediation of sediment, purification of air and water. In order to make contributions on the physical and chemical properties of soils and applicability of the Solimões Formation from Acre State was carried out a study to simulate natural competitive adsorption of micronutrients cobre, níquel e zinco in different adsorbents sites present in these sediment and to evaluate the influence of the attributes mineralogical, chemical and physico-chemical from these adsorption processes. Preliminary data on the mineralogy of soil samples allowed to select four stations distributed among four named as H1RA, H6B, H23A H9F and located along the BR 364 and BR 317, as well as outcrops in the river Acre. Analyses of samples were performed by XRD (using the powder in the range 2θ=o 5-75 ; analysis of clay fraction in sheets oriented air-dried in an atmosphere of ethylene glycol o and heated at 550 ° C (2θ = 3 -35 ) analysis total chemical by ICP-OES; element analysis exchangeable and available to determine parameters of soil fertility. In adsorption experiments the equilibrium concentrations of cobre, níquel and zinco were determined by AAS. We used the models of Langmuir isotherm, Sips, Toth, Temkin Rendlich-Petersen and the fit of the experimental data of adsorption. The results indicated that the samples present as major minerals quartz and clay minerals of the smectite group, mica and kaolinite mineral and the 14th (H6B) preliminarily identified as interstratified mica-chlorite smectite-mica or chlorite-vermiculite. The other minerals identified in the samples were gypsum (H1RA), microcline (H6B and H9F) and albite (H9F). The average chemical composition is represented by 60.99% SiO2, 15.91% Al2O3, 5.84% of Fe2O3, 2.21% K2O, 0.34% of Na2O, 1.26% MgO, 0.86% CaO and 0.86% TiO2. The following ranges were obtained for the parameters of fertility: pHH2O = 5.24 to 8.36; pHKCl = 3.16 to 7.02; CTCefetiva = 3.37 to 25.42 cmol c / kg;% V (base saturation) = 83.08 to 97.63; saturation% Ca = 4.28 to 69.21; saturation% = 11.32 to 76.42 Mg, K saturation% = 2.32 to 17.32;. In the adsorption experiments were obtained the following ranges for the amount of each element adsorbed (mg / g) in soil samples selected: Cu) from 91.30 to 147.46 in H1RA, 47.25 to 83.93 in H6B , 67.13 to 137.36 in H9F; 73.01 to 141.35 in H23A, Ni) from 49.97 to 93.81 in H1RA; 42.51 to 113.44 in H6B; 62.52 to 134.86 in H9F; 54.13 to 172.58 in H23A, Zn) from 50.11 to 104.50 in H1RA, 44.31 to 64.12 in H6B; 60.21 to 89.91 in H9F; 73.84-135 , 60 in H23A. In these experiments was obtained the following values for the initial pH of the aqueous suspensions of samples in H1RA pHinicial=3.88 to 5.38; in pHinicial H6B = 2.71 to 3.27; H9F in pHinicial = 3.16 to 4, 24 and in pHinicial H23A = 2.61 to 3.29. The values of pH equilibrium were 4.38 to 5.2 in the H1RA sample, 2.71 to 3.16 in H6B; 3.24 to 4.2 in H9F; 2.51 to 3.14.in H23A. It was concluded that the sediment samples analyzed have suitable properties adsorptive for simultaneous retention of Cobre, níquel and zinco in water; the samples with montmorilonite (station H23A) and mineral 14A (H6B) present adsorption of metals transition at pH values between 2.5 and 3.1. The samples H1RA H9F with different groups of clay minerals (smectite, kaolinite and mica) the adsorption of transition metals occurs at pH values between 3.2 to 5.5. The ionic strength increases with decreasing pH . The best isotherm models to describe adsorption processes of Cobre, níquel and zinco in sediment samples were the Langmuir and Sips models. The values of ns Sips indicated that the majority of adsorption systems fall between the homogeneous heterogeneous systems. The equilibrium data and thermodynamic processes of simultaneous interaction between these ions and mineral adsorbents indicated that the processes are favorable, spontaneous and the type of adsorption is specific (chemical adsorption) with the formation of inner sphere complexes.

Afinidades geoquímicas entre sedimentos (solos) e vegetação (gramíneas e cultivares), além de cabelo de ribeirinhos, ao longo das praias de rios da bacia do Juruá, no estado do Acre e sua importância ambiental
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2005-06-10) RÊGO, José de Arimatéia Rodrigues do; COSTA, Marcondes Lima da; http://lattes.cnpq.br/1639498384851302
The State of the Acre is located in the southwestern extremity of the Brazilian Amazonia, in an area of 153.149 km2, with a low population density (3,66 inhabitants/km2). The studied area comprehends the basin of the Juruá river between the Feijó and Cruzeiro do Sul cities, including Tarauacá and Rodrigues Alves. In the basin the main rivers are: Juruá, Tarauacá, Envira, Muru and Moa. The same carry in sediments great amounts by traction and suspension from siltic- argillaceous rocks of the Solimões Formation and deposite in beaches formed along the rivers. In drought periods the beaches (point bars) are displayed in its meanders and benefit the riparian that use them to leisure and to short cycle agriculture. The beaches sometimes are used to cultivs of maize (Zea-Mays) and beans (Vigna unguiculata (1) Walp). These beaches also present a vegetation succession of canarana grass (Costus spicatus) and orvalho grass (Brachiaria decumbes). This study evaluates the high fertility of the beaches sediments (soils) and the geochemistry affinity between their sediments and the crops besides riparian hair and the environmental importance of this cycle. So the main rivers that constitute the Juruá basin, enclosing Feijó, Tarauacá, Cruzeiro do Sul and Rodrigues Alves cities were related. Nine stations were established along the rivers and samples of beach sediments, canarana grass leaves, orvalho grass leaves and seeds and beans leaves had been leaves were collected. Besides this, measurement of phisical-chemical parameters of the rivers waters were caried out. Human hair samples were collected in the cities. The sediments samples were analyzed by X-ray difraction (XRD) for mineral determination, are by chemical ICP-MS for characterization (major and trace elements). In attempt to verify the content of Major and Trace Elements, like Ca, Fe, K, Na, Ba, Zn, Mo, Co, Cr, Cu, Pb, Hg, As and Se and their sediment — (solil) — crops transference were camet the chemical compositions analyses were carried out with regal water plus MS-ICP and neutron activation. The studied beaches sediments in the cultivated areas excet the beach of Moa river are essentially fine-grained, ranging from fine sand to silt. And are formed by in decressent order quartz, feldspars clay minerals (smectite, illte and kaolinite) and feldspars. Chemical are constitute binaimes by SiO, (68,0 98,9 % in weight), following by significaty lower values, of Fe>03 (0,13 to 4,37 %), MgO (0,02 to 1,03 %), KO (0,16 to 1,94 %), CaO (0,02 to 1,05 %) and Na,0 (0,02 to 1,03 %) and AlOs, are more concentrated in the sediments of Envira, Tarauacá and Juruá rivers. These values compened chemical with that one of the PAAS and, the Upper Crust, are slightly impoverished in Al, Fe, Mg, K, Ti as well as slightly in Ca and Na, diluted certainly for the high contents of SiO2. In general, the rivers waters of the Juruá basin are dark-colored, as white waters type, due to inorganic material in suspension (suspensates) in high concentration. The criterion of suspensates and phisical-chemical parameters (pH, DO, TDS, temperature, resistivity, electric conductivity and salinity) delimit three geographic zones (sub-basins): a) Envira-Tarauacá, b) Juruá and c) Moa rivers. The first one presents the highest values of all the analyze phisical-chemical parameters, except resistivity, and the area coincides with the more fertile land area State of the Acre. Among the studied vegetables the canarana grass leaves revealed are richerest in K, S, Ca, Mg, P than orvalho grass leaves. Canarana and orvalho grass present chemical similarity in relation to K, P, S, Mg and Ca elements. Only canarana grass, collected in the sediments of the Juruá river tends to become richer in Ca and S. The chemical elements transference sediment (soil)-vegetable presents an absorption for vegetal of the K>P>Ca>P. This order presents the major values for vegetables collected in the sediments of Envira river, emphisizing the importance of Envira river with greater transference potential of macronutrients and being a probable pointer of its superior fertility in relation to the other rivers of Juruá basin. In the sediment-crop-human chain the cycle of Hg shows that in the beach sediments of the Juruá, Envira and Tarauacá rivers the average concentration of Hg (27 ppb) in the sediments below the background range (50 ppb) and in the plants is in according to normal considered range (< 500 ppb) for plants that grow in soils with low contents of Hg; the average contents of Hg in hair in Tarauacá, Cruzeiro do Sul, Rodrigues Alves and Feijó rivers is about 3992 ppb. The lower concentration (average 1680 ppb) was found in Feijó and the higher (6240 ppb) in Cruzeiro do Sul, being normal values and slightly impact indicators, not observed in the region. The slightly anomalous values of Hg in hair is not related to the crops, as well as to the sediments. For hunam other sources of Hg disponibilization must be evaluated as fish or domestic or wild animals meats. The beaches and abrupt declivities (banks) of the white water rivers of the central and western regions of Acre (Juruá basin) are really fertile, adequated to short cycle agriculture and its nutrients and other elements are completely assimilated by vegetables and crops. For the present study the chemistry of the sediments and crops, as well as of human hair, shows that the region does not present geochemistry anomaly of any considerable antropogenic impact.

Afinidades petrológicas e geocronologia U-Pb em zircão de ortognaisses do Complexo Gnáissico-Migmatítico Água Azul, Terreno Sapucaia, Província Carajás.
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2024-10-09) PINTO, Eliziane de Souza; OLIVEIRA, Davis Carvalho de; http://lattes.cnpq.br/0294264745783506; https://orcid.org/0000-0001-7976-0472
The Água Azul do Norte area is part of the geological context of the Carajás Province, precisely in the Sapucaia Terrain, according to the recent tectonic compartmentalization proposals presented by the Granitoid Petrology Research Group (GPPG/UFPA). This region is formed by a mesoarchean orthognathic basement with TTG affinity (Água Azul GneissicMigmatitic Complex; 2.93 Ga) associated with late Mesoarchean intrusions with sanukitoid signatures (Água Azul and Água Limpa Granodiorites; 2.88-2.87 Ga), high-Ba-Sr sodic (Nova Canadá Granodiorite; 2.89-2.87 Ga) and high-K calc-alkaline (Boa Sorte Granite; 2.89- 2.85 Ga) signatures. The review of geological and petrographic data indicated that the TTG crust of Água Azul do Norte is compositionally heterogeneous and records strong evidence of progressive metamorphism and migmatization. Therefore, this work reclassifies this TTG basement as being formed by orthogneisses, which occasionally present variations to tonalitic to quartz dioritic compositions that resemble fragments of a more primitive, intensely deformed and gneissified crust. These varieties show compositional banding in an E-W direction, often disturbed by shear bands and drag folds. Considering the classification of migmatites, they have an orthognathic paleosome and leucosomes rich in Qz+Pl±Bt parallel to the banding (stromatic metatexite) and frequentely outlined by mafic aggregates (melanosome rich in biotite and hornblende). They form four compositional varieties: i) hornblende±biotite tonalitic orthogneiss (HBTnl), ii) clinopyroxene-hornblende tonalitic orthogneiss (CHTnl), iii) epidote-biotite orthogneiss quartz diorite (EBQzD) and iv) hornblende-biotite orthogneiss quartz diorite (HBQzD). They present a large proportion of mafic minerals (M'> 15%), especially biotite and hornblende, which can occur slightly stretched along the foliation plane. Plagioclase and secondary quartz are abundant and occur in the matrix or, in the case of plagioclase, as phenocrysts, while alkali-feldspar and primary quartz are practically insignificant. Whole rock geochemical analysis indicated that samples MED-120A (EBQzD) and MEP-53B (HBQzD) present moderately magnesian character, medium-K calcium-alkaline signature, relative depletion in K2O, MgO, Ba, Ni and Cr and enrichment in Na2O, Al2O3, TiO2, Fe2O3 and Zr, reflecting a certain affinity with traditional tonalite-trondhjemitic associations. The presence of many zircon crystals with igneous features preserved in these samples marks the crystallization age of the protolith at 3.06 Ga, suggesting that they are crustal fragments approximately 100 Ma older than the underlying crust (Água Azul Orthognathic Complex). MED-144 (HBTnl) exhibited a strongly magnesian character, high-K calcium-alkaline signature, high K2O/Na2O ratio and enrichment in MgO, Ba, Ni and Cr, very similar to the composition observed in sanukitoids. The U-Pb data obtained for this sample indicated a crystallization age of 2.92 Ga, similar to that observed in sanukitoids described in the Ourilândia do Norte region (Arraias Granodiorite). The other samples showed significant contents of compatible elements (e.g. Fe, Mg, Ni, Cr) and moderate contents of incompatible elements (e.g. K, Rb, Ba, Sr, Zr, Ti) and revealed an intermediate behavior between TTGs and granitoids enriched in Mg, as well as a strong affinity with the São Carlos Orthogneiss (2.93 Ga) described in the same terrain. Concordant U-Pb ages obtained for samples MED-95A (HBTnl) and EDC-28B (CHTnl) indicated acrystallization at 2.95-2.93 Ga contemporaneous with the emplacement of the Água Azul TTGs and the São Carlos Orthogneiss. The textural behavior of the quartz and mafic minerals indicates dynamic recrystallization mechanisms at intermediate to high temperatures (~500-650ºC), while the morphology observed in the migmatites (stromatic metatexitic and leucosomes with hydrated minerals) suggests that there was a low amount of melt produced and fluids participation in the partial melting process. Combined with the mineral paragenesis (Pl+Qz+Bt±Hbl±Ep), these factors point to a granitic protolith metamorphosed under amphibolite facies conditions, with the migmatization being strongly contemporaneous with the deformation and peak of the regional metamorphism described in the Carajás region (2.89 Ga; MED-95A).

In the Metropolitan Region of Belém (PA) the water supply to the population comes from springs (physiographic area of Utinga) and from a network of positional tube wells, in general, in more remote urban areas or where pumping is precarious. This work evaluates the groundwater used in the Metropolitan Region of Belém, correlating data of physical, physical-chemical and chemical parameters, in an attempt to compose an understandable picture about the quality of these waters, and to verify the influence that they suffer from the geological units in which they are located. the aquifers that preserve them are located. To carry out the work, water samples were collected in two different seasonal periods: dry and rainy. After exhaustive consultation of the files of companies, institutions and researchers, 17 tubular wells were selected, 9 in Belém, 5 in Icoaraci, 2 in Mosqueiro and 1 in Ananindeua (Annex A). The most frequent turbidity indices were between 9 and 14 units (ppm of SiO2), but some wells showed higher values (33, 41 and 71 ppm of SiO2. Only in some cases, this turbidity can be immediately correlated with the silica content obtained by chemical analysis. The most frequent color measurements are in the range from zero to 7.5 U.C., with the zero index predominating. However, some wells showed a value above 100 U.C. and others, less frequent, with indices varying between 20 and 60 U.C. The pH and electrical conductivity were quite different parameters. Thus, the highest pH and electrical conductivity indices were verified in the aquifers of the Pirabas Formation. In these cases, the pH was around 6 .4 to 7.6 and conductivity between 231 and 362 µS/cm, with a discontinuity at 87.5 µS/cm, also attributed to a well associated with the aforementioned Formation. More acidic waters (pH below 6.38 and above of 4.01) are certainly attributed to the aquifers of the Barreiras and Post-Barreiras Group. The chemical constituents, notably the contents of Ca2+, Mg2+, Na+ and K+, are consistent with the interpretation of the numerical values of pH and electrical conductivity. Without exception, the concentrations of Ca2+ are higher than those of the other cations, establishing a decreasing order according to Ca2+> Mg2+> Na+>K+, with some inversion between Na+ and Mg2+. The highest concentrations of Ca2+ (soon followed by Mg2+) result from the dissolution of carbonates present in the Pirabas limestone. In fact, confirming this assertion, the concentrations of HCO-3 are also much higher than the concentrations of Cl- and SO2-4. It is to be expected, therefore, that the dissolution of Pirabas sediments produces higher concentrations of Ca2+ and HCO-3. The silica and iron contents also discriminate such waters. In general, higher silica contents correspond to greater depths, as would be expected, taking into account the action of chemical weathering on silicate minerals. As for iron, this constitutes a differentiating parameter of the waters of the Pirabas Formation, almost always at much lower levels than the corresponding values associated with the Barreiras and Post-Barreiras aquifers, with, however, exceptions, in which appreciable indices of iron related to Pirabas sediments. It should be noted that the Pirabas Formation appears in the Metropolitan Region of Belém almost always at depths greater than 100 m, although there are records of smaller depths, but these are apparently rarer situations, as is the case with well number 3. , on the University Campus, near the Guamá River, with a depth of 76 m, and the 94 m well of the Museu Paraense Emílio Goeldi, in the central area of the city (Annex A). The exhaustive consultation of the aforementioned archives of institutions, companies and researchers led to the realization that many tubular wells installed in the urban area use water associated with the Barreiras and Post-Barreiras aquifers, where the pH values are almost always, below 6 units, and electrical conductivity measurements rarely reach 100 µS/cm. Finally, it appears that there is a need for greater investments in order to increase the prospection and use of groundwater in the region, as these, in addition to dispensing with treatment prior to distribution, are still a source of resources, not dimensioned, but of great potential.

Alteração hidrotermal e potencial metalogenético do vulcanoplutonismo paleoproterozoico da região de São Félix do Xingu (PA), Província Mineral de Carajás

The region of Sao Felix do Xingu, south-central Pará, exposes a volcano-plutonic system exceptionally well preserved and grouped in the Sobreiro and Santa Rosa formations, in which hydrothermal alteration and mineralization associated were recognized. The Sobreiro Formation consists of lava facies flow of andesitic, basaltic andesite, and dacitic composition, according to the proportions or absence of clinopyroxene and/or amphibole phenocrysts. Volcaniclastic facies is genetically associated and is represented by mafic crystals tuff, lapilli-tuff, and massive polymictic breccia. Santa Rosa Formation is fissure-contolled and composed of lava flow facies and associated volcaniclastic facies of felsic crystal tuffs, ignimbrites, lapilli-tuff, and massive polymictic breccia. Part of this system is interpreted as ash-flow caldera partially eroded and developed in several stages. Conventional petrography, X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and infrared spectroscopy show hydrothermal alteration paragenesis occurring in these rocks. In general, the alteration minerals develop subeuhedral anhedral crystals and replace magmatic minerals. The types of hydrothermal alteration identified are incipient the pervasive and are distinguished propylitic, sericitic, intermediate argillic, and potassic, which overlap, and fracture-controlled silicification associated with hematite and carbonate. Propylitic alteration, prevalent in Sobreiro Formation, presents both pervasive and fracture-controlled styles. The paragenesis consists of epidote + chlorite + carbonate + quartz + sericite + clinozoisite ± albite ± hematite ± pyrite, which is overlapped by pervasive potassic alteration or fracture-controlled, mainly represented by potassic feldspar + biotite ± hematite. Locally, fracture is filling with prehnite-pumpellyite association that suggests geothermal low-grade metamorphism conditions. The sericitic alteration is marked by the occurrence of mainly sericite + quartz + carbonate ± epidote ± chlorite ± muscovite. It is manifested mainly in mafic crystal tuff. However, the overlap of these types of changes is evidenced by relics of propylitic chlorite alteration and textures of rocks, partially obliterated, in which there were only pseudomorphs of sericitized plagioclase. In the Santa Rosa Formation the sericitic alteration is pervasive and characterized by the occurrence of sericite + quartz + carbonate. Also presents fracture-controlled, which is represented by sericite + quartz. It is the main type of change identified in this unit by assigning the whitish rocks. SEM data show that, associated with the sericitic alteration occur lead phosphate, gold, rutile, and barite. The potassic alteration is more subordinate, generally associated with granitic porphyry and locally to rhyolites. Paragenesis is given by microcline + biotite + chlorite + carbonate + sericite ± albite ± magnetite. The intermediate argillic alteration was recognized in rhyolites and possibly corresponds to the final stages of hydrothermal alteration. It is characterized by the presence of montmorillonite + illite + chlorite + sericite ± kaolinite ± halloysite ± quartz ± hematite, which were identified by infrared spectroscopy and XRD. It gives whitish to whitish pink to the rocks. The hydrothermal alteration types were mainly controlled by temperature, fluid composition, and fluid/rock ratios. They are compatible with thermal anomalies related to magma, and possible temperature decrease due to mixing and neutralization with meteoric water, similar to that described in low- and intermediate-sulfidation mineralization. Gold identification and compatible accessories phases provide important information for prospective studies in the region, especially for potential intermediate- and low-sulfidation epithermal deposits of precious metals (gold and silver) in volcano-plutonic systems with related ash flow calderas, as well the Au(Cu) and Mo porphyry-type deposits.

Alteração supergênica das rochas básicas do grupo Grão-Pará: implicações sobre a gênese do depósito de bauxita de N5 - Serra dos Carajás
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 1981-11-19) LEMOS, Vanda Porpino; VILLAS, Raimundo Netuno Nobre; http://lattes.cnpq.br/1406458719432983
The present study deals with the supergene alteration of the basic volcanic rocks of the Grão Pará Group and gathers evidences that support the N5 bauxite deposit (Carajás Sierra) to be an extreme product of this alteration. In the lack of a continuous profile, this hypothesis was tested with a composed profile using the subsurface information available for the contiguous N4 plateau where the whole weathered sequence could be observed. The bauxite-rich and lateritic horizons, only developed in N5, were then assumed to be a part of that sequence and taken as its more superficial levels. The basic volcanic rocks are of precambrian age and were classified as tholeiitic basalts compositionally similar to those of the calc-alkaline suites that occur in modern island ares (TiO2-Zr/P2O5 diagram). The primary mineral assembly is dominantly composed of labradorite and pigeonite-augite and has zircon, ilmenite and opaque minerals as the major accessory phases. Hydrothermal activity caused mineralogical changes in theses rocks producing chlorite, epidote, calcite, sericite, amphibole and quartz. Significant chemical and mineralogical changes were induced by the weathering in these rocks and could be evaluated to depths up to 140 m. The serbidecomposed material showed substantial losses of CaO, Na2O and FeO (this due to partial oxidation to Fe+3) and less important lasses of SiO2, MgO and K2O. In contraposition there was relative enrichment of Fe2O3, Al2O3, TiO2 and P2O5 besides major gains of H2O. This new chemical environment favored the formation of compatible stable phases represented, in order of abundance, by chlorite, smectite-chlorite, opaque minerals and quartz. The totally decomposed basalts revealed an aimost complete loss of alkalls, MgO and CaO, with SiO2 contents dimishing to values of approximately 40% of its initial quantities. This enhanced great relative gains of Fe2O3, Al2O3, TiO2 and P2O5 and H2O with respect to the previous alterations stage. The resulting mineral assembly turned out be dominated by kaolinite, goethite and titanium oxides, and secondarily by gibbsite and quartz. Determinations of Cr, Ni, Co and Zr were done for both the bas.alts and its weathered equivalents. Enrichment factors of the order of 1.5 to 5.0 generally progressive towards the surface indicate the greater or lesser mobility of these elements within the supergene environment. Cr, Ni and Co were retained by coprecitpitation with iron hidroxides while Zr was accounted for by the preservation of zircon as a residual mineral. The N5 bauxite deposit consists of a gibbsite-rich upper layer with an average thickness of 4.7 m and average chemical composition of 3-.13% SiO2, 2.3% TiO2, 47.0% Al2O3, 23.0% Fe2O3 and 24.0% volatiles. Mineralogically it is composed of gibbsite, kaolinite, titanium oxides and iron hidroxides (goethite). The subjacent layers show distinct chemical constitution but the mineral suites differ in the proportions rather than in the kinds of the phases present. Downwards it is observed 1) a lateritic crust as thick as 10 m, 2) a gibbsite-rich clay that do not exceed 35 m in thickness and 3) an argillaceous horizon of indefinite thickness. The lateritic crust has an average chemical composition of 3.6% SiO2, 2.0% TiO2, 28.0% Al2O3, 47.0% Fe2O3 and 19.0% volatiles, and a mineralogy dominated by hematite, kaolinite, iron hidroxides, titanium oxides and subordinate quantities of gibbsite. The gibbsite-rich clay has average proportions of 24.0%, 2.0%, 28.0%, 32.0% and 13.0.% for SiO2, TiO2, Al2O3, Fe2O3 and volatiles respectively while the argillaceous horizon shows average proportions of 47.0%, 1.5%, 20.0%, 22.0% and 7.5% for these same components in that order. The mineral assembly of these two last levels is dominated by kaolinite, gibbsite, titanium oxides and iron hydroxides although hematite appears only in the gibbsite-rich clay while goethite and quartz appear, only ,in, the argillacebus horizon. The identification of heavy minerals in samples of both the decomposed basalt and the bauxite material revealed the same suite consisting of ilmenite, zircon and tourmaline, the latter mineral being found in greater abundances in the bauxite. Boron determinations from samples of the various horizons of both sequentes (N4 and N5) indicated contente that varied from 70 to 100 ppm, justifying /the probable presence of tourmaline even in the rocks from which was not possible to separate heavy minerals. The integration of all these data allowed the interpretation of the N5 bauxite plateau as a residual deposit of the supergene alteration of the volcanic basic rocks of the Grão Pará. Group with basis on 1) the chemical and mineralogical identities between the two sequences, especially the decomposed basalt and the gibbsite-rich clay, 2) the chemical correspondente that suggests the argillaceous horizon to be an intermediate stage of alteration between the semidecomposed and the decomposed basalt, 3) the presence of gibbsite in the decomposed basalt suggesting a stage of evolution which, given enough time and the appropriate conditions, could produce a material progressively rich in alumina and 4) typical trace elements of basic rocks present in relatively high concentrations in the bauxite deposit and, taken the genetic link for granted, showing enrichment or impoverishment factors along a common trend from the unaltered basalt to the bauxite material. Special attention was paid to the lateritic crust that formed underlying the bauxite deposit. It has been interpreted as a result of the relativo mobility of Fe and Pd, under Eh-pH conditions that favored the descending movement of Fe and the fixation of in the upper horizons.

Alterações hidrotermais associadas às rochas máfico-carbonatíticas do depósito de fosfato Serra da Capivara, região de Vila Mandi (PA), extremo sul do Cráton Amazônico.

Near the border of the states of Pará and Mato Grosso, in the Amazonian Craton, about 90 km west of the Vila Mandi district, Santana do Araguaia (PA) city, there is an unprecedented volcano–plutonism named Santana mafic-carbonatitic Complex. It is formed by a lower maficultramafic member with plutono–volcanic and other volcaniclastic lithofacies; besides an upper carbonatitic member with plutonic, effusive, and volcaniclastic lithofacies originated in a volcanic caldera environment with large areas of hydrothermal alterations and genetically related circular structures. The severe Amazon weathering partially affected this cluster, producing the Serra da Capivara Phosphate deposit supergenically. Although speculative, the Santana mafic-carbonatitic Complex is Paleoproterozoic in age, because it invades the Paleoproterozoic volcano-plutonic sequences Cinco Estrelas and Vila Mandi formations (1980–1880 Ma) and it is capped by sedimentary rocks from the same Era. The lower maficultramafic member has lithofacies with slabs of pyroxenite, and minor isolated metric blocks of ijolite and apatitite. They are medium-grained ceylonite-bearing (MgAl2O4) pyroxenites with augite (~ 90% vol.), magnesio-riebeckite, and olivine crystals replaced by clay minerals (saponite). The ijolite is composed of clinopyroxene and nepheline phenocrysts immersed in a fine-grained groundmass with nepheline, calcite, and interstitial magnetite. Apatitite blocks are composed of medium-grained apatite grains (~ 98% vol.) and calcite. The volcanic rocks of this lithofacies comprise isolated metric blocks of alkali basalt and rare associated outcrops of finegrained apatitite. This basalt rock presents plagioclase-rich groundmass and acicular augite phenocrysts as essential mineralogy. Aphyric samples have primary spherules filled with calcite and quartz, besides interstitial pyrite, iron oxides, apatite, barite, rutile, celestine, and monazite. This textural feature suggests silicate and carbonatitic melts immiscibility process. An explosive to autoclastic mafic volcaniclastic lithofacies encompasses poor sorting deposits of massive polymictic breccia, lapilli-tuff, crystal-rich tuff, and ash tuff. The autoclastic rocks reveal volcaniclastic texture comprising centimetric angular clasts sourced from autofragmentation of the mafic-plutonic plutono–volcanic lithofacies. Epiclastic sedimentary volcanogenic deposits usually cover all previous lithofacies. The upper carbonatitic member reveals coarse-grained carbonatite (sövite) lithofacies comprising reddish-yellow sövite (calcite carbonatite) composed of subhedral to euhedral calcite (85–90% vol.), with variations to magnesium-ferriferous calcite and dolomite. Primary accessories are magnetite, hematite, potassic feldspar, and pyrite. These lithotypes show hydrothermalized medium- to fine-grained carbonatite veins. Rare coarse-grained apatitite bodies occur associated with this lithofacies, which represents part of the proto-ore. An effusive carbonatite (alvikite) lithofacies reveals finegrained calcite-rich (80–85% vol.) to porphyritic alvikite, besides hematite, magnetite, potassic feldspar, and pyrite. Fragment-rich explosive carbonatitic volcaniclastic lithofacies encompassing poor sorting and texturally variable massive crystal-rich tuff, lapilli-tuff, and massive polymictic breccia formed by angular clasts sourced from host rocks and the complex. Syenitic stocks and dikes invade these rocks. The main hydrothermal magmatic alteration of the complex is represented by hydrothermalized carbonatitic rocks of reddish, brownish, and yellowish colors. The mineral paragenesis found was barite + fluorapatite + dolomite ± quartz ± rutile ± chalcopyrite ± pyrite ± monazite ± magnetite ± hematite. This alteration occurs in three distinctive ways; 1) in the deeper zones, where the minerals found were barite, fluorine apatite, and dolomite in pervasive to fracture-controlled alteration associated with deep fine carbonatites. 2) In the sövite, of weak interstitial form with mineralogy similar to the deep alterations. 3) in the alvikite with intense interstitial changes and formation of hydrothermal quartz associated with barite, fluorapatite, dolomite, monazite, celestine, and rutile. The mineral assemblage of the deeper alterations suggests initially sulphate-rich, magnesium, phosphorus, and CO2 fluids with possible transitional source between the late magmatic and the hydrothermal stages. In transition to more superficial phases of the volcanism, there was an assimilation of SiO2 from the country rocks evidenced by the formation of fine interstitial quartz crystals in alvikite. The interpreted environment of volcanic caldera occurs in the interception of regional NE-SW and NW-SE faults with up to 40 km of extension and that served as deep conduit of the precursor magma of the complex. The root of the system is represented by maficultramafic rocks and plutonic carbonatites. The pre-caldera phase involved intense degasification and hydrothermal activities as a function of magmatic evolution, and ascending by lithic faults and placing on the surface of large volume of carbonate lava (alvikites) that built the extinct volcanic building. The collapse of this structure and the topographic landslide coincided with explosive volcanism and formation of the volcanoclastic lithotypes, representing the intra-caldera filling. The late syenites may represent the post-caldera phase and sealing of these structures. The hydrothermal paragenesis identified in the Santana maficcarbonatitic Complex shows important metallogenetic potential for rare earth elements and phosphate and represents a prospective guide on Proterozoic terrains of the Amazonian Craton, like other areas of the planet.

Ambiente geológico e mineralizações associadas ao granito Serra Dourada (extremidade meridional) Goiás

The Serra Dourada granite belongs to a set of domic structures, generally mineralized in cassiterite, located in the center-east of Goiás, where rocks of the Uruaçu and Brasília folding belts and the Goiás median massif dominate. In order to contribute to the petrological, metallogenetic and stratigraphic knowledge of these granitic rocks, the southern tip of Serra Dourada was selected for this study. The methodology adopted was mapping at a 1:45,000 scale, petrographic, minerographic and geochronological studies, in addition to the determination of the contents of major elements in rocks and some minerals, and of trace elements in rocks. The granitic rocks of Serra Dourada were classified as syenogranites, presenting three varieties: amphibole-biotite granite, muscovite-biotite granite and biotite granite, the latter being dominant. The K-Rb graph indicates an advanced degree of fractionation for these rocks and suggests a trend that starts from granite to amphibole and ends in muscovite. In turn, the systematic variation of the contents and ratios of some trace elements reveals an intimate relationship between these varieties, meaning multiple intrusions that correspond to different degrees of partial fusion of the original material. In attempts at dating by the Rb-SR method, it was observed that the phenomena subsequent to the initial lodging in the crust introduced possible isotopic rejuvenations. However, these granitic rocks provided maximum conventional ages close to 2 b.a. The last magmatic phases of the Serra Dourada granite were the pegmatites which, in the core of the batholith, are zoned and contain aquamarine, while at the edge they bear tantalite-columbite, emerald, muscovite and monazite. Then, large amounts of hydrothermal solutions enriched in Sn and F reached both the granite and its host, changing them to greisens. Upon contacting the enclaves, the solutions precipitated cassiterite, magnetite, fluorite and sulfides. Veins with wolframite and rutile lodged in the nearest enclaves. At lower temperatures, these solutions generated kaolin when reaching the pegmatites of the contact range. Several types of enclaves have been identified in the granite: biotitite, soda-gneiss, xenoliths of schists and quartzites, and amphibolites. The soda-gneiss enclaves are trondhjemitic in nature and also have amphibole and biotite, biotite and biotite and muscovite varieties. The similarity of the assemblage and chemistry of some mineralogical phases suggests a consanguinity between soda-gneiss and granite, with the possibility that they are partially intact fragments of the rocks that gave rise, by anatexia, to the granitic material. On the other hand, the contents and anomalous ratios of some elements of soda-gneiss indicate reaction with magma, which is emphasized by the position of these rocks in the K-Rb graph. This reaction certainly affected the isotopic ratios, allowing only to suggest an Archean age. In turn, the biotites are possibly restricted. The sequence where the Serra Dourada granite was lodged is composed of intercalations of schists and quartzites from the Serra da Mesa Group. The typical mineralizations of acid magmatism, greissens, pegmatites and granitic sills in the metasediments, in addition to xenoliths from the enclosing rocks and pronounced foliation at the edges of the body, testify to the intrusive character of the granite in these metamorphites, whose late-syntectonic event is associated with the formation of the brachyanticlinium, which agrees with the regional structural pattern. Through the mineralogical assemblage of these rocks, conditions of low amphibolite facies were attested for its formation, where pressures above 4.5 Kb and temperatures around 550°C.

To evaluate the effectiveness of public interventions in relation to changing social dynamics and improve the quality of life of a population is necessary to the built and application of social indicators in monitoring public management, especially when dealing with large environmental interventions. As much as these indicators are mapped, the vast majority of environmental studies where these interventions occur, the government has dedicated itself or if it does not perform and monitor efficiently the behavior of these indicators over time. In Belém, the floods in urban areas pose a serious problem for most of the municipality, especially when involving densely occupied areas, at which generate considerable damage and often irreparable, even with losses of human lives. Flooding has been a problem during periods of frequent rainfall, both in the oldest areas of the city and consolidated, as in the areas of urban sprawl, a fact compounded by soil sealing, occupation of wetlands and removal of riparian vegetation, which hinders the infiltration rainwater. Due to these environmental factors and the inattention of government in providing social amenities and physical interventions in the area of the metropolis, populations that occupy the most vulnerable parts of the city of Belém, in general have a poor quality of life, as regards the issue of the environment in which they live. In order to comparatively evaluate two different realities and really consider whether public intervention was effective and efficient and from the same include as practical application of social indicators in monitoring the public administration, was used as case for this research performed by government intervention state in the basin of Una, where he was executed the deployment of Macro Drainage Basin of Una and services contemplated drinking water supply, sewerage, storm water drainage and road system, compared with the intervention of the municipal government to bowl Estrada Nova, running, with the deployment of these services. To develop the research, the study gathered data and information collected in the basin of Una and projected future scenarios for the basin of Estrada Nova, using the same indicators. These indicators in this study were also addressed and strengthened with a hydrogeological assessment of the two basins, the analysis of quality of surface and groundwater, consideration of the incidence of waterborne diseases, the vulnerability of aquifers, configured together in a GIS specifically built for it, with the aim of evaluating the criticality of spatialization basins and identify which areas need more attention or have the best results. The study demonstrated that the physical and socioeconomic study of the two basins are similar and after the intervention in the basin of Una, any kind of indicator was monitored with a view to demonstrate the effectiveness of the intervention. The study also showed that health indicators linked to waterborne (why the intervention was also made) chosen for monitoring before and after the intervention, have partially direct connections to the environmental quality of the basin, but many indicators not could be chosen by the lack of government data. The vulnerability of the aquifer top is also concern in some quarters, in that much of the population obtains its supplies from this aquifer, which has its recharge provided, in part, by draining channels of Belém, known holders of very bad quality indices its waters and can even be characterized as true open sewers. The drainage channels and creeks of Belém, are thus responsible for directing this excess sewage into the Bay of Guajará and river Guamá through interconnection with those that have physiographic elements. Because the city has much of its area located in quotas of up to 4 meters, which is also the average annual tidal amplitude regional, these areas are subject to flooding. By way of consequence throughout the upper aquifer is vulnerable to infiltration of contaminated water channels, which in times of floods are dammed increasing the residence time in them,. The research now being evaluated scenarios and presentation indicators, this reality, leaving open the need to be constructed and monitored indicators other than the act of evaluating the effectiveness of public intervention can be more consistent. Finally the study also notes that several indicators could not be considered in the study due to insufficient and the quality of data provided by the government.
