These basins are located in the interior of Northeast Brazil aligned along the Trend-Cariri Potiguar. Their origin is related to the Early Cretaceous rifting event. In terms of lithostratigraphy, the studied section corresponds to the Antenor Navarro, Sousa and Rio Piranhas formations of the Rio do Peixe Basin, and the Miss?o Velha and Abaiara formations of the Araripe Basin, outcropping in the central-west Cariri Valley. A facies analysis was performed and identified nine distinct sedimentary facies for the Rio de Peixe Basin and ten sedimentary facies for the Araripe Basin, individualized according to the different rock types and their sedimentary structures. These facies associations to led paleoenvironments interpretations and their vertical succession allowed understanding the evolution of the depositional setting during the cronostratigraphic interval studied in these basins. Based on petrographic and diagenetic studies it was possible to characterize the texture and mineralogy of these sandstones, identifying their diagenetic stage and the grain framework provenance. The petrographic study allowed to classify the lithotypes studied in both basins as quartzarenites. Such quartzarenites, in general, are rich in quartz, feldspar and lithic fragment grains, and at accessory levels tourmaline, sphene, zircon, epidote and other mineralogy. The diagenetic history of the studied rocks proved to be very complex, being characterized by a variety mineral of phases that succeeded each other during the eo, meso and telodiagenetic stages. According to the studied formation and the textural and compositional aspects of the rocks, some processes were more or less active, while others were even absent. The eodiagenetic stage is marked by mechanical infiltration of clays and early mechanical compactional processes. The mesodiagenetic phase is characterized by continuity of the mechanical compaction and the beggining of chemical compaction, with quartz and feldspar overgrowths, precipitation of kaolinite, alteration of framework grains to chlorite and illite, and finally, precipitation of opaque minerals. The telodiagenetic stage is represented by the oxidation of some grains, matrix and cements. For the provenance analysis of the studied sandstones were used ternary diagrams whose vertices correspond to the percentage of quartz, feldspar and lithic fragments. This study allowed identifies the source area of these rocks as continental blocks. It was also possible, based on the chemical stability and mineralogical maturity of the rocks, recognize that the Antenor Navarro Formation of the Rio do Peixe Basin, and the upper section of the Miss?o Velha Formation of Araripe Basin have less maturity and stability when compared with the other studied formations / A presente disserta??o apresenta um estudo diagen?tico e de proveni?ncia dos arenitos que integram a Tectonossequ?ncia Rifte nas bacias do Rio do Peixe e do Araripe. Tais bacias comp?em o conjunto das Bacias Interiores do Nordeste brasileiro. As mesmas encontram-se alinhadas segundo o Trend Cariri-Potiguar, estando geneticamente relacionadas ao rifteamento eocret?ceo. Litoestratigraficamente, o intervalo estudado corresponde ?s forma??es Antenor Navarro, Sousa e Rio Piranhas, na Bacia do Rio do Peixe, e ?s forma??es Miss?o Velha e Abaiara, na Bacia do Araripe, estas ?ltimas aflorantes na por??o centro-oeste do Vale do Cariri. Visando subsidiar os estudos de diag?nese e proveni?ncia foi realizada uma an?lise f?ciol?gica que permitiu identificar nove f?cies sedimentares distintas para a Bacia do Rio do Peixe e dez para a Bacia do Araripe, individualizadas consoantes os diferentes tipos litol?gicos e principais estruturas sedimentares presentes. As associa??es destas f?cies possibilitaram tecer interpreta??es acerca dos paleoambientes nos quais as mesmas est?o inseridas, e suas sucess?es verticais permitiram compreender a evolu??o do cen?rio deposicional durante o intervalo cronoestratigr?fico estudado nestas bacias. Com base nas an?lises petrogr?fica e diagen?tica, foi poss?vel caracterizar textural e mineralogicamente os arenitos estudados, identificar as fases diagen?ticas, bem como tecer interpreta??es sobre a proveni?ncia dos gr?os do arcabou?o. O estudo petrogr?fico permitiu classificar os lit?tipos estudados, em ambas as bacias, principalmente como quartzarenitos. Tais quartzarenitos, de maneira geral, apresentam arcabou?o rico em gr?os de quartzo, feldspatos e fragmentos l?ticos e, em menor percentagem, minerais resistatos (turmalina, esfeno, zirc?o, ep?doto). A hist?ria diagen?tica das rochas estudadas mostrou-se bastante complexa, sendo caracterizada por uma grande variedade de fases que se sucederam durante os est?gios de eo, meso e telodiag?nese. De acordo com a forma??o estudada e as particularidades texturais e composicionais intr?nsecas ?s f?cies destas unidades, alguns processos se mostraram mais ou menos atuantes, outros at? mesmo ausentes. De forma geral o est?gio eodiagen?tico ? marcado pela infiltra??o mec?nica de argilas e in?cio dos processos de compacta??o mec?nica; O est?gio mesodiagen?tico ? caracterizado pela continuidade da compacta??o mec?nica e in?cio dos eventos de compacta??o qu?mica, crescimentos secund?rios de quartzo e de feldspatos, gera??o de caulinita autig?nica, altera??o dos gr?os do arcabou?o para clorita e ilita e, por fim, a precipita??o de minerais opacos. O est?gio telodiagen?tico, por sua vez, ? representado pela oxida??o de alguns dos gr?os, matriz e cimentos presentes. A an?lise de proveni?ncia dos arenitos estudados, utilizando-se diagramas tern?rios, cujos v?rtices correspondem aos percentuais de quartzo, feldspatos e fragmentos l?ticos, permitiu identificar que a ?rea-fonte dessas rochas ? representada por blocos continentais. Foi poss?vel tamb?m, reconhecer que os arenitos da Forma??o Antenor Navarro, da Bacia do Rio do Peixe, e a se??o superior da Forma??o Miss?o Velha, da Bacia do Araripe apresentam maior maturidade mineral?gica e estabilidade qu?mica, ao passo que, as demais forma??es cont?m rochas que, comparativamente, apresentam mais maturidade mineral?gica e estabilidade qu?mica. Tais informa??es permitiram associar as forma??es estudadas em cada uma das bacias, a fases espec?ficas de evolu??o do Est?gio Rifte
