ABSTRACT: The Iberian Pyrite Belt (IPB) is a late Devonian- Early Carboniferous world-class polymetallic VMS province that includes significant Cu-(Sn)-Pb-Zn-(Ag) deposits of massive sulphides and feeder zones. The Aljustrel brownfield region contains one of the highest concentrations of ore in the IPB in 6 known deposits (Gaviao, Sao Joao, Moinho, Algares, Estacao and Feitais). To delve into the petrogenesis o...
ABSTRACT: Both the Pan-African orogenic cycle and the peri-Gondwanan Cadomian Orogeny took part in the global tectonic event that led to the rearrangement of Gondwana's west-northern block. An approach to determine the nature of Cadomian - Pan-African events using detrital zircons population from Neoproterozoic-Lower Paleozoic (rift-to-drift cycle) stratigraphic record in Iberian Massif is here discussed.
