This facies is subdivided in two subfacies, the core albite granite and the border albite granite. The petrographic study allowed identify that the principals constituent minerals of the magmatic phase in these rocks undergone weak solid-state deformation, in which it is found locally feldspars with grain boundary migration, undulate extinction and mechanical twinning, as well as, some elongate crystals of quartz displaying typical chessboard pattern with slip planes preferably in the a-axes, dynamic recrystallization, subgrain rotation and inclusions of albite according to the limits of the crystals. These microstructures in granitic rocks indicate strain rates under intermediated to high temperatures. Geometric and kinematic analysis of the structures in the albite granite showed that: this granitic rock was deformed during a magmatic stage recording the S0 magmatic foliation, which was grouped in two orientations: N67°W/52°E e S79°W/58°N (predominant). The anisotropy of magnetic susceptibility and shape preferred orientation study, confirm the stability of the primary deformation in the albite granite, these results revealed predominantly subcoaxial magnetic and mineral fabrics in both subfácies. Subsequently, the albite granite was affected by brittle deformation through of transcurrent shear zones (ZCA-B) with plunges S70°W/56°N and S23°E/58°W respectively, and dominant dextral strike-slip component associated with the principal shear zone ZCA, as well as, normal faulting (FR) with prevailing attitude S60°E/58°S and normal-sense movement. The progressive petrological evolution and continue structural pattern of the albita granite facies with respect to earlier facies of Madeira granite, define that the emplacement in the upper crust of the different pulses in this granite, was result of nested pluton process controlled by NE-SW trending strike-slip system and predominantly dextral kinematics, which is an expression of regional deformation. / A fácies Albita granito é a fácies mais tardia do granito Madeira de afinidade alcalina a qual é um especial pulso do magmatismo tipo A que se desenvolveu de forma expressiva no período Orosiriano na província Tapajós-Parima no cráton Amazônico. Esta fácies se subdivide em duas subfácies: Albita granito de núcleo e Albita granito de borda. O estudo petrográfico permitiu identificar que os minerais constituintes da fase magmática destas rochas apresentam localmente feições de deformação plástica, cristais de K-feldspato e albita com limites lobados por migração de borda, extinção ondulante e geminação mecânica, assim como fenocristais de quartzo exibindo extinção ondulante em padrão de tabuleiro de xadrez com planos de deslizamento preferencialmente no eixo <a>, recristalização dinâmica, rotação de subgrãos e inclusões de albita e alinhadas segundo os limites dos cristais. Estas microestruturas em rochas graníticas indicam taxas de deformação sob temperaturas intermediárias. Análises geométrica e cinemática das estruturas levantadas em campo nas subfácies do Albita granito, comprovaram que localmente a rocha se deformou ainda num estágio magmático, registrando foliação magmática S0, agrupada em duas orientações: N67°W/52°E e S79°W/58°N (predominante). Os resultados do estudo de anisotropia de susceptibilidade magnética e orientação preferencial de forma avaliam localmente a estabilidade da petrotrama dúctil medida em afloramento e registram tramas magnética e mineral predominantemente subparalelas nas duas subfácies. Posteriormente, o Albita granito foi deformado rúptilmente por zonas de cisalhamento transcorrentes (ZCA-B) orientadas S70°W/56°N e S23°E/58°W, com cinemática dextral dominante associada ao cisalhamento principal ZCA, e por falhamento normal (FR) com atitude predominante S60°E/58°S, sob os efeitos de um campo regional de esforços que se manteve estável durante sua cristalização e deformação. A progressiva evolução petrológica e continuo padrão estrutural da fácies Albita granito com respeito às fácies mais precoces do granito Madeira refletem que o alojamento dos diferentes pulsos magmáticos deste granito na crosta superior, ocorreu associado com processos de nested plutons controlados por um contexto regional de deformação transcorrente com trend NE-SW e cinemática dextral predominante.

<p dir="ltr">To better predict volcanic behavior, we must understand the processes that occur in the underlying magma reservoirs. This thesis contains three chapters that work together to better understand processes that occur in sub-volcanic reservoirs. Chapter 2 is a study of an ancient, coupled volcanic-plutonic system to determine the link between the volcanic and plutonic parts of the system. The IXL-Job Canyon magmatic system is an ~28-29 Ma system, which shows a rapid transition between eruption of tuffs and lava flows to construction of an upper-crustal pluton, via incremental emplacement. The system experienced an eruptive hiatus during and after pluton construction, until the eruption of a newly identified, younger, rhyolitic tuff. This work suggests that the absence of volcanic activity at the surface does not mean that the underlying magmatic plumbing system is also inactive. Chapter 3 compiles existing U-Pb zircon ID-TIMS data for upper-crustal, silicic magmatic systems, to determine the size and frequency of magmatic increments that accumulate to build up these systems. A Monte Carlo-based model is used to investigate the underlying distributions of the increment size and time between increments, and results in sizes and inter-event times that follow an exponential distribution. This work helps guide how we can try to introduce broadly generalizable complexities into thermal models of such systems. Chapter 4 focuses on organic interferences, a common issue that impacts the speed and quality of U-Pb and Pb-Pb data collected on TIMS instruments. We share two techniques used at the Purdue Radiogenic Isotope Geology Lab to first reduce and then avoid any residual organic interferences. These techniques help shorten analytical times, increasing throughput, and provide a means to reduce uncertainties on our measurements, since the presence of organic interferences can bias and increase the uncertainties on U-Pb dates.</p>
