摘要: Multidimensional discrimination diagrams (2006–2011) for basic and ultrabasic igneous rocks were applied to Precambrian rock suites from the Amazonian Sao Francisco cratons, Tocantins Province, Brazil, infer their possible tectonic settings. The chosen study cases in craton include ca. 3.0 Ga metabasalts of Identidade greenstone belt, 1.87–1.80 Ga Parauapebas anorogenic basalt-rhyolite dikes, 1.86–1.82 Ga Rio Branco gabbro-basalt association, 1.76–1.74 Ga Aripuana Teles Pires intracratonic basalt-felsic volcanic associations, Jamari 1.60–1.53 Ga Serra da Providencia arc-related gabbroic rocks. In craton, we selected 1.48 Ga amphibolites Capim continental mafic dikes Uaua (2.6 Ga), Curaca Chapada Diamantina (1.5 Ga), Espinhaco (ca. 1.0 Ga). komatiites associated with oceanic basalts Crixas Guarinos belts...
