dc.description.abstract | Mapping widespread dyke swarms shed light on the tectonic processes that culminate in
continental fragmentation, especially in the early phases of the crustal extension and
magma emplacement. Airborne magnetic data are an effective geophysical tool to clarify
the extent of dyke swarms in continental-scale areas due to the expressive magnetic
contrast between magmatic bodies and host rocks. However, many geological features
display similar magnetic patterns, making the qualitative interpretation of magnetic
anomalies quite subjective and ambiguous. To improve and optimize the predictive
mapping of dyke swarms, this research presents a multivariate analysis of airborne
geophysical surveys, applying a Self-Organizing Maps (SOM) approach using two
magnetic and three gamma-spectrometric variables. The SOM method was applied to
investigate a set of mafic dyke swarms that intruded in the Neoproterozoic Borborema
Province (BP), Parnaíba Basin (PB) and the São Francisco Craton (SFC) in NE Brazil.
These dykes are part of a large magmatic event associated with the supercontinent Pangea
breakup, which formed the Equatorial Atlantic Ocean in the Early Cretaceous,
denominated EQUAMP. First, the SOM hyperparameters were defined by running the
algorithm in a representative area in the central part of the BP. This training area worked
as a SOM template, through which all data from the study area were processed. The SOM
analysis identified seven different populations, according to responses found in the five
geophysical input variables. Two of these populations were associated with the mafic
dykes, reducing the subjectivity of the magnetic anomaly interpretation. These
populations represent high SOM quantization error, which means that these groups are
the most anomalous values, evidenced in airborne magnetic data. These results was
checked during fieldwork, revealing that dyke swarms occur more widely than was
previously known, throughout the BP, intruding the SFC, and showing some occurrences
intro in the Paleozoic sedimentary infill of the eastern border of the PB. We also apply
anomaly enhancement techniques to magnetic data to obtain the spatial distribution and
depth estimate of the causative sources. A structural analysis was carried out, integrating
magnetic patterns, field data and a compilation of previous geological maps to describe
the detailed distribution of the dyke swarms in BP. Our analyses demonstrated that the
dyke swarms extend over 6.8 x106 km2. The 1388 mapped mafic dykes are grouped in
three distinct swarms: 1135 – Rio Ceará-Mirim (RCM); 168 – Canindé (CD); and 86 –
Riacho do Cordeiro – RC. The dyke swarms show three preferential trends to E-W, NW-SE and NE-SW. The swarms intrude both the Precambrian basement units and the
Cretaceous sedimentary basins. The geometry and structural analysis of the dykes
allowed interpreting the paleostress field active at the intrusion time. To the RCM, the
paleostress trajectories represent a N-S extension, rotating to NW-SE in the western
portion of the swarm. While for CD, the paleostress orientation shows a NW-SE
extension rotating to NE-SW. As for the RC, the trajectories were similar to those traced
for the RCM, showing a predominant NW-SE extent. | |
