| Resumo: | This paper represents the integration and interpretation of past data, field geology, with
subsequent laboratory analysis, carried out in the coastal region, eastern coast of Rio Grande
do Norte, between Baía Formosa and Natal, regarding the stratigraphic record of a marine level
pleistocene. The relative variation of the shoreline and its morphological features are directly
associated tectonic and paleoclimatic interferences. These variations model the locally acting
depositional systems, stacking lithostatigraphic units with single signatures, with respect to
lithotype, sedimentary structures, diagenesis, depositional age and crystallization age of the
source rock. During the bibliographic survey, we sought to consolidate a transgressive pulse,
where it was observed that for the region, the most applied dating, occurred by
thermoluminescence (TL), in 210,000 ± 10,000 years, correlated to the peak of the
antepenultimate marine transgression of the Brazilian coast. Sedimentological and
granulometric evaluations indicate high energy environments of deposition, correlated to
intermarine systems, for that were described outcrops, made thin section and grain size analysis.
Sm-Nd isotopic analyzes, including sediments adjacent to the shoreline, were performed
objectifying the characterization of isotopic signatures and identification of their probable
source areas. The association of relative sea level variations, sedimentological characterization
and sediment source, play a fundamental role in the analysis of siliciclastic sedimentary
successions, thus allowing the reconstruction of tectonic, stratigraphic and geographic
parameters. After processing the information, it was possible to characterize and insert in the
regional stratigraphy, the Barra de Tabatinga Formation, deposited during the transgressive
Pleistocene pulse, characterized by sandstone with medium to coarse granulometry, and
isotopic signature concentrated in the lower Paleoproterzoic (Siderian), different from the units
below and above, respectively, Barreiras Group (very heterogeneous granulometry and isotopic
signature distributed throughout all Paleoproterozoic) and the Coastal Aeolian Deposits (fine
to medium sand granulometry). |
