A pool of Brazilian public universities and institutions has been acquired deep refrac-tion seismic, gravity and magnetotelluric, with the purpose to model the conti-nental lithosphere of the region. This paper present the gravity survey of the second transect, that crosses the Borborema Province from SW to NE, passing through the S?o Francisco Craton, Transversal and Meridional zones and Rio Grande do Norte Domain, in the Setentrional Zone. In this way, it cuts some important geologic structures, like the limit of the S?o Francis Craton and the Borborema Province, Paleozoic and Mesozoic sedimentary basins of Tucano, Jatob? and Potiguar and the extensive Pernambuco and Patos shear zones. Recognition techniques gravity sources in the subsurface, such as spectral analysis and Euler Deconvolution, were applied to the Bouguer anomalies, as well as their regional and residual components. These techniques provided in-formation on possible anomalous bodies, which correlated with pre-existing geological and geophysical data, subsidized a 2.5 D gravity modeling of the lithosphere beneath the Borborema Province and its southern limit with the S?o Francisco Craton. / Desde 2005, est?o sendo efetuados estudos geof?sicos nos terrenos Pr?-Cambrianos da Prov?ncia Borborema, ao longo de duas transectas com cerca de 800 km cada. Algumas universidades e institui??es p?blicas t?m realizado em conjunto levantamentos s?smicos, gravim?tricos e magnetotel?ricos, com o objetivo de modelar a litosfera continental da regi?o. Esse trabalho apresenta o levantamento gravim?trico da segunda transecta, que secciona a Prov?ncia Borborema de SW para NE, passando pelo Cr?ton S?o Francisco, pelas zonas Tranversal e Meriodional e pelo Dom?nio Rio Grande do Norte, na Zona Seten-trional. A Transecta Ang?era Macau corta algumas importantes estruturas geol?gicas, como o limite entre o Cr?ton S?o Francisco e a Prov?ncia Borbore-ma, as bacias Mesoz?icas e Cenoz?icas de Tucano, Jatob? e Potiguar, e as extensas zonas de cisalhamento Brasilianas de Pernambuco e Patos. T?cnicas de reconhecimento de fontes gravim?tricas na sub-superf?cie, como An?lise Espectral e Deconvolu??o de Euler, foram aplicadas ?s anomalias Bouguer, bem como suas componentes regional e residual. Essas t?cnicas forneceram informa??es sobre poss?veis corpos an?malos, que, correlacionados a dados geol?gicos e geof?sicos pr?-existentes, subsidiaram uma modelagem gravim?-trica 2,5D da litosfera da Prov?ncia Borborema e seu contanto sul com o Cr?ton S?o Francisco.
