AbstractThe classical concept of collisional orogens suggests that mountain belts form as a crustal wedge between the downgoing and overriding plates. However, this orogenic style is not compatible with the presence of (ultra-)high pressure crustal and mantle rocks far from the plate interface in the Bohemian Massif of Central Europe. Here we use a comparison between geological observations and thermo-mechanical numerical models to explain their formation. We suggest that continental crust was first deeply subducted, then flowed laterally underneath the lithosphere and eventually rose in the form of large partially molten trans-lithospheric diapirs. We further show that trans-lithospheric diapirism produces a specific rock association of (ultra-)high pressure crustal and mantle rocks and ultra-potassic magmas that alternates with the less metamorphosed rocks of the upper plate. Similar rock associations have been described in other convergent zones, both modern and ancient. We speculate that trans-lithospheric diapirism could be a common process.

Igneous intrusions in sedimentary basins are commonly related with mineralogical association changes in host-rock. At Sapopema region (Paraná State, southern Brazil), an extensive diabase sill (associated to Serra Geral Formation) was emplaced in pelitic-carbonate succession during post-Triassic. The sedimentary host-rock association includes mostly shale, siltstone and carbonate of the Permian Irati Formation. X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) data revealed that heat transfer was not enough to cause modifications in mineral assemblage of the Taquaral Member (quartz + albite + muscovite + illite + kaolinite + chlorite). However, mineralogical content from Assistência Member presented changes probably caused by the intrusion of diabase sill (talc + pyrophyllite + calcite). Talc and calcite were formed due to the reaction between dolomite and quartz, while pyrophyllite was the product of reaction between kaolinite and quartz. EFEITOS DA INTRUSÃO IGNEA NA COMPOSIÇÃO MINERALÓGICA DA FORMAÇÃO IRATI, BACIA DO PARANÁ, SAPOPEMA (PR), SUL DO BRASIL ResumoAs intrusões ígneas em bacias sedimentares dão origem em geral a alterações mineralógicas da rocha hospedeira. Na região de Sapopema (Estado do Paraná, sul do Brasil), uma extensa soleira de diabásio (associada à Formação Serra Geral) pós-Triássica, foi intrudida numa sucessão sedimentar constituída por pelitos e carbonatos. A associação de rochas sedimentares hospedeiras, era principalmente constituída por folhelho, siltito e carbonato da Formação Irati, do Permiano. Dados de difração de raios X (DRX), microscopia eletrônica de varredura (MEV) e espectroscopia de energia dispersiva (EDS) revelaram que a transferência de calor não foi suficiente para causar modificações na composição mineralógica do membro Taquaral (quartzo + albita + moscovita + ilita + caulinita + clorita). No entanto, o conteúdo mineralógico do Membro Assistência apresentou alterações, provavelmente causadas pela intrusão do diabásio (talco + pirofilita + calcita). O talco e a calcita foram formados devido à reação entre dolomita e quartzo, enquanto a pirofilita foi o produto da reação entre a caulinita e o quartzo. Palavras-chave: Bacia Sedimentar.

AbstractThe Planalto da Serra igneous rocks form plugs, necks and dykes of carbonate-rich ultramafic lamprophyres (aillikites and glimmerites with kamafugitic affinity) and carbonatites (alvikites and beforsites). Phlogopite and/or tetraphlogopite, diopside and melanitic garnet are restricted to aillikitic rock-types, whereas pyroclore occurs only in carbonatites. Aillikites and carbonatites are altered to hydrotermalites, having chlorite and serpentine as dominant minerals. Planalto da Serra igneous rock association has kamafugitic affinity (i.e. effusive, ultrapotassic. High LREE/HREE fractionation, incompatible elements data and Sr-Nd isotopes, suggest that the K-ultramafic alkaline and carbonatite rocks originated from a variably metasomatized mantle source enriched in radiogenic Sr. Crustal contamination is negligible or absent. Age values of 600 Ma rule out the geochronological relationship between the investigated intrusions and the Mesozoic alkaline bodies from the Azimuth 125° lineament. The TDM model ages allow to conclude that Planalto da Serra magma is derived from the partial melting of a mantle source metasomatised by K-rich carbonatated melt during the Early to Late Neoproterozoic. On the basis of alkaline magmatism repetitions at 600 Ma and 90–80 Ma we question the subsistence of a stationary mantle plume for so long time.

A male Sceloporus smithi was collected at Hierve El Agua, in the Municipality of San Lorenzo Albarradas, Oaxaca, México. This record extends the known distribution of the species by approximately 25 km N from the closest acknowledged locality and also represents a new upward elevational record. Even though the elevation at this site is almost 700 m higher than for previously documented localities, the subhumid forest and igneous rock association is similar to other inhabited localities at lower elevations.

In 1929 Väiyrynen discovered a chalcopyrite-bearing pyrrhotine deposit at the village of Luikonlahti, 30 km. NW. of the Outokumpu mine. This occurrence is associated with a complex of serpentine, quartzites, phyllites, dolomites, and diopside-tremolite-roeks, together with penetrating granites, aplites, and pegmatites. The rock association thus closely resembles that of the Outokumpu ore-field.
