Descrição
The relationship between oxygen isotopic values and magnetic
susceptibility composition on 11 Variscan Portuguese granites has
been investigated. Whole-rock oxygen-isotope (18O ) values for
Vieira do Minho (VM), Vila Pouca de Aguiar (VPA), Chaves,
Castelo Branco (CB), Manteigas and Serra da Estrela (SE) granitoids,
were compilated from bibliography [1,2,3,4], and 18O for Santa
Eulalia Plutonic Complex (SEPC) were obtained by laser fluorination
at the Stable Isotopic Laboratory of Salamanca. Magnetic
susceptibility (Km) values were obtained with a Kappabridge
equipment from Toulouse University and Geology Centre, Porto
University [2,5,6,7,8]. In this study is shown that there is a significant
inverse correlation between Km and 18O. Magnetite-type granites
(Manteigas granodiorite and SEPC external facies) have Km>10-3 SI
and low 18O values ranging from 8.9 to 10.3 0/00 instead those of
ilmenite-type (all the other granites) have Km 10-4 SI and are 18O
enriched (9.3 to 13.5 0/00). The I-type granites (VM, VPA, Chaves,
Manteigas and SEPC external facies) show lower average 18O
(10.2 0/00) and higher Km values (100x10-6 SI) than the S-type granites
(SE and CB) with 18O = 12.6 0/00 and Km = 65x10-6 SI.
