- Exhumation of an anatectic complex by channel flow and extrusion tectonics: structural and metamorphic evidence from the Porto–Viseu Metamorphic Belt, Central-Iberian ZonePublication . M. Bento dos Santos, Telmo; Rodrigues, José Feliciano; Castro, Paulo; Cotrim, Beatriz; Pereira, Inês; Ferreira, Joana; Pinto De Meireles, Carlos Augusto; Ferreira, Narciso; Ferreira, Priscila; Ribeiro, António; Guimarães, FernandaAbstract: Structural and metamorphic analyses of the Porto–Viseu Metamorphic Belt (PVMB), an anatectic complex located in the Central-Iberian Zone (CIZ), Iberian Variscan Massif, constrain the kinematic features of the polyphase Variscan deformation, as well as the boundary conditions associated with the exhumation and emplacement of the belt onto the CIZ’s lower-grade metasediments. A sharp metamorphic contrast is evident between the lowest grade rocks of the anatectic complex—garnet-staurolite mylonitic schists with a minimum metamorphic peak at P = 5.7 kbar and T = 635 °C—and the host chlorite-biotite metasediments of the CIZ. Additional P–T estimates for metatexites in the PVMB provided P = 7.6–7.9 kbar and T = 770–810 °C, confirming high-grade metamorphic peak conditions. The temperature jump between the anatectic complex and the low-grade host rocks exceeds 400 °C if the anatectic core of the belt (metatexites, diatexites, and S-type granites) is considered, implying a vertical difference of 10–17 km. The PVMB is limited in the NE by a D2 shear zone displaying normal kinematics, which has been explained so far by extensional tectonics. However, the SW boundary is limited by a D2 shear zone showing reverse kinematics. This pair of coeval and antithetical ductile shear zones bordering the PVMB, associated with the increase of the metamorphic grade towards the axial domain of the belt, is consistent with anatectic channel flow, followed by extrusion tectonics of the PVMB within an overall D2 compressive setting.

- From source to surface: clues from garnet-bearing Carboniferous silicic volcanic rocks, Iberian Pyrite Belt, PortugalPublication . Cravinho, André; Rosa, Diogo; Relvas, Jorge M.R.S.; Solá, A. Rita; Pereira, Inês; Paquette, J. L.; Borba, M. L.; Tassinari, Colombo C. G.; Chew, David; Drakou, Foteini; Breiter, Karel; Araújo, VítorABSTRACT: This work investigates the relationships between partial melting, melt extraction, pluton growth and silicic volcanism in garnet-bearing felsic volcanic rocks that were extruded in the Iberian Pyrite Belt, at ca. 345 Ma. The garnets are of peritectic origin, displaying textural and chemical features of disequilibrium crystallization during partial melting reactions involving biotite at high temperatures (up to 870 degrees C) in the middle-lower crust. Major element composition suggests compositional equilibrium with the entrained and pinitized peritectic cordierite, but reveals some subsequent homogenization by diffusion. Trace element maps and spot analyses of garnet show, nonetheless, significant trace element variations, reflecting biotite and Y-REE-P-rich accessory phase breakdown during partial melting reactions. Peritectic garnet and cordierite growth resulted in the preservation of Th- and Y-rich prograde suprasolidus monazite, which constrains the timing of partial melting of the metapelitic protolith at ca. 356.8 +/- 2.4 Ma. The zircon cargo further shows that a significant amount of zircon crystals from previously crystallized felsic melts were also remobilized and erupted. These were likely stored in an upper crustal pluton that grew episodically since ca. 390 Ma during voluminous melt generation periods within the middle to lower crust, which also resulted in voluminous volcanism. The geochemical trends of the felsic volcanic rocks reflect the entrainment of xenoliths of peritectic garnet, cordierite and feldspar, and as such, the garnet-bearing felsic volcanic rocks represent an erupted mixture of a lower-temperature (ca. 770 degrees C) silicic melt and autocrysts, and peritectic phases and zircon crystals from previously crystallized and stored felsic melts.

- Tales from xenoliths: the link between the Papôa Volcanic Breccia and the Berlengas Archipelago (West Portugal): geodynamic implicationsPublication . Rosa, Ana Rita; Cachapuz, P.; Santos, Telmo M. Bento Dos; Pereira, Inês; Solá, A. Rita; Carvalho, D.; Romão, José; Valverde-Vaquero, PabloABSTRACT: The Papoa Volcanic Breccia (Peniche, West Portugal) is a Mesozoic pyroclastic deposit that includes numerous igneous and metamorphic xenoliths belonging to the Variscan basement of the Lusitanian Basin, in which this unit outcrops. These rocks correspond mostly to syenogranites and diatexites affected by intense pyrometamorphism and, despite their strong secondary alteration by weathering, they still preserve several original petrographic features that are traceable to the lithologies that comprise the Berlengas Archipelago, located 15 km offshore the Peniche coast. New geochemical and mineral chemistry data now indicate a genetic relationship between these basement xenoliths and the Late Devonian migmatites outcropping in the Farilhoes Anatectic Complex. Such evidence strongly suggests the physical continuity of these high-grade metamorphic terrains at least to the Peniche region, thus constraining the nature and composition of the crustal block beneath the sedimentary sequences of the Lusitanian Basin in the studied location. In addition, in situ LA-ICP-MS U-Pb dating of rutile formed during the pyrometamorphic event endured by the xenoliths provided an age of 92.3 +/- 1.4 Ma for the Papoa volcanic eruption, placing this occurrence within the third magmatic cycle related to the opening and spreading of the North Atlantic Ocean in the West Iberian Margin.
