GEOLOGIA, GEOQUÍMICA E MINERALOGIA COMPARATIVA ENTRE AS INTRUSÕES DIAMANTÍFERAS CANASTRA-1 E ABEL RÉGIS (MINAS GERAIS).
Hundreds of alkaline-ultrabasic
intrusions occur in the south-southwestern region of Minas Gerais state.
Two of these intrusions, both diamondiferous, were studied in detail
evolving their geological, geochemical and mineralogical aspects. The
second was still a subject of LA-MC-ICP-MS dating in zircon. In the
geologic aspect, such intrusions present significant morphological
differences: the Canastra-1 surface is distorted and of little dimension
(150 m in length), while the Abel Régis has large circular diameter
(1.4 km); the first presenting root facies, and the other crater facies.
The rock chemistry of these intrusions shows peculiar characteristics,
mainly related to the alkaline elements: the Canastra-1 pipe is depleted
in Na2O and K2O, oxides that have significant
contents in the Abel Régis pipe. This pipe has been dated in 86.1
±4.5My. Mineralogical aspects of the diamond indicator phases also were
distinct: abundance of Cr-spinel, besides the presence of sanidine, and
the mineral chemistry of ilmenite and diopside, indicate a possible
lamproitic “tendency” to the Abel Régis pipe, while the Canastra-1 has
geochemical and mineralogical features of a typical kimberlite.
