Gravimetria no estudo da extremidade sudeste da faixa de dobramentos Brasília

Abstract

A extremidade sudeste da Faixa de Dobramentos Brasília tem sido alvo de extensa discussão em vista de sua geometria complexa e a diversidade de interpretações postuladas ao longo do avanço do conhecimento, sem integração ou abordagem por modelagem até então. A geofísica é baseada em uma abordagem indireta à geometria das massas rochosas, imageando propriedades físicas das mesmas, sendo assim, a gravimetria representa uma alternativa para a observação das massas de rocha presentes na região e sua geometria. Nesta temática o presente trabalho apresenta resultados de análise e modelagem de dados gravimétricos neste segmento da crosta, mais especificamente a região da Nappe de Socorro-Guaxupé e arredores, entre os orógenos Brasília e Ribeira com o Cráton do São Francisco e sua zona de interferência estrutural. A filtragem e modelagem gravimétrica indicam uma geometria de crosta duplicada, onde o Cráton do São Francisco se apresenta como anteparo na colisão do bloco Paraná-Paranapanema e Vitória, durante o ciclo Brasiliano, com a formação de extensos sistemas de empurrão subsequentemente deformados por tectônica lateral ao término do evento orogênico, com a instalação dos Cinturões de Cisalhamento Paraíba do Sul e Campo do Meio, com assinaturas geofísicas marcantes. Aspectos geofísicos e petrológicos indicam a similaridade da região com áreas de alto grau metamórfico, agora com uma visão integrada de seus níveis inferiores de arquitetura com a confirmação de modelos anteriores com evidências de superfície.

The southern edge of Brasília Fold Belt has an extensive research past dealing with its complex geometry with several interpretations on its evolution, poorly constrained by geophysical modeling. Geophysics is a non-direct approach to crust geometry by means of its physical properties presenting a prospective way to observe crust geometry. This works follows this scenario for gravity modelling in the southern tip of Brasilia Fold belt, especially in the Socorro- Guaxupé Nappe area along the syntax and interference zone to the Ribeira Belt (Mantiqueira Orogen) by São Francisco Craton margin. Filtering and modeling of gravity data into 2D sections shows crust duplication along the nappe system with São Francisco Craton acting as a rigid- to subducting block during Neoproterozoic tectonics. Extensive fold and shear belts (Campo do Meio e Paraíba do Sul) formed in the area during late Neoproterozoic as the final acts of deformation during collision of Paranapanema and Vitória cratons/blocks with São Francisco craton. Geophysical, structural and petrology constraints shows that the nappe system pertains a high metamorphic grade lower crust slice with strong near- vertical shear zone imprint. This work proposes a geology- constrained gravity model along the structural interference zone for the main tectonic elements with information by seismology and magnetic data.
