Resumo

The Guanambi batholith (GB) is located in south-western Bahia, Brazil, where it forms part of the Urandi-Paratinga mobile belt. The batholith extends over an area of almost 6,000 km 2 and is mainly composed of syenites and monzonites, with subordinate granites, mafic syenites and lamprophyric dykes. Two main units can be recognized: the multiple intrusions, being divided into four regions (Paratinga, Laguna, Igaporã and Guanambi) and the so-called late-intrusions forming the Cara Suja, Ceraíma and Estreito massifs. U-Pb and Pb-Pb isotopic data demonstrate that the batholith was emplaced 2.05 Ga ago. GB has (i) highly negative initial ε Nd (-7.4 to -10.6), pointing to an enriched source, and (ii) Sr initial ratios between 0.704 and 0.707. Both chemical and isotopic signatures suggest that GB formed by fractional crystallization of a lamprophyric magma derived from a Paleoproterozoic enriched mantle source.
