The Tucuruí Group of Neoproterozoic age outcrops in Tucuruí region, northeastern of Pará state, along with the transition between the Amazonian Craton and Araguaia Belt. The group is defined by a volcano-sedimentary sequence containing basaltic flows and diabase sill intrusions interbedded with siliciclastics deposits. The Tucuruí thrust fault override these sets rocky westward resulting in shearing, fracturing and fluid percolation in these rocks. The siliciclastic deposits consist of amalgamated subarkoses and siltstones, whose layers are oriented NNE-SSW direction with low dip to SE. In addition presenting coarsening and thickening upward. In this investigation were recognized two sedimentary facies associations: Deposits of Shoreface and Coastal Tempestites Face. This association suggests easy transport processes and sedimentation linked to a shallow marine environment, following the foreshore zone to zone shoreface under influence of wave storm. The petrographic analysis revealed the compositional and textural immaturity of arkosean sandstone and siltstone indicating nearby source area of provenance of mafic to intermediate igneous rocks. The sequence was subject to the mesodiagenetic sedimentary conditions. Thus, the siliciclastic deposits of Tucuruí Group represent the portion of a preserved segment influenced by coastal storm waves in a rift basin or foreland with nearby source area, composed of igneous rocks with strong relief, and marked predominantly by physical weathering. Basaltic volcanic flows occurred during the evolution of this basin.

Identificação de ambientes de sedimentação na Área Metropolitana de Belém a partir de perfis de poço
(Universidade Federal do Pará, 2003-06-30) NASCIMENTO, Márcia Helena D'Oliveira; LUIZ, José Gouvêa; http://lattes.cnpq.br/8676530374310847
This thesis presents a study based on patterns related to the shape of logging curves obtained in groundwater wells drilled in Belém metropolitan area. The objective of the study was to recognize Cenozoic sedimentation sequences and their sedimentation environment. Single point resistance, spontaneous potential and gamma ray logging from 21 wells were analyzed, covering maximum depth of 300 m. The study allowed to recognize two main units: one of them, characterized by large amount of clays and thin sand layers, occurring between surface and 160 m depth, while the other, below 160 m, presents thick sandy layers. These units were associated to the sedimentary sequences of Lower Cenozoic described by Rossetti (2000) that correlate to Pirabas and Barreiras Formations, and to Post-Barreiras and Holocenic sediments. For the upper unit, the shape of the logging curves show patterns that can be associated to transgression and regression, while for the lower unit the shape of the curves suggest a center of channel sedimentation. The study shows that the methodology used to recognize sedimentation environment can be considered satisfactory if no a priori geological information is available.
