Graduated in Geology at the University of São Paulo (2002), PhD in Sciences (Geosciences - Mineralogy and Petrology) at the University of São Paulo (2008). He developed a post-doctorate research at the Department of Mineralogy and Geotectonics (GMG) of the Institute of Geosciences (IGc) of the University of São Paulo (2008-2010), focused on the study of cumulate rocks of alkaline tendencies. Since 2010 he is a professor at the Institute of Geosciences of USP. Developed research work abroad (post-doc internship) at the University of Alberta (CAN) with main focus on chemical analysis of trace elements and isotopes in perovskites of kimberlites (2018). He has experience in the areas of Petrology and Mineralogy, with an emphasis on the following themes: Magmatic Evolution, Cumulative Alkaline Trend Rocks, Kimberlites, Carbonatites, Lamprophic Alkaline, Mineral Chemistry, Whole-rock Geochemistry, Geochemical Modeling, Application of radiogenic isotopes in rocks and minerals . Magmatic events of the Meso-Cenozoic ages on the Brazilian platform and their geotectonic conditionings were addressed in his research projects (Source: Lattes Curriculum)

This research projetc aims to study the xenocryst/antecryst compositional influence in basic to ultrabasic alkaline magmas. This question is specially important in the study of lamprophyres (mesocratic to melanocratic porphyritic rocks), of mafic-ultramafic cumulate bodies and of kimberlitic/kamafugitic pipes related to the Cretaceous alkaline magmatism in the Brazilian Platform. All thes…
This research project aims to contribute to the better knowledge of the Meso-Cenozoic alkaline mafic magmatism of the Brazilian Platform in the state of São Paulo, particularly in the Serra da Mantiqueira area. Firstly, work will be focused on petrographic, whole-rock and isotopic geochemical analysis of lamprophyre dikes. Through the recognition of mineral assemblages and the determinati…
The main question of this proposal deals with the influence that intensives parameters such as pressure, temperature and oxygen fugacity (T, P and fO2) can have in a greater instability of carried (or possibly carried) diamond xenocrysts in kimberlitic magmas from Alto Paranaíba Alkaline Province. This project will develop chemical analyses of the main mineral phases of different kimberli…
This master's degree project aims to study the trace element partition coefficient of phenocrysts in chemical equilibrium with their matrix (aphanitic, glassy or phaneritic fine-grained ones). The main targets are alkaline dykes of different composition, as lamprophyres and phonolite, outcropping in São Paulo state, Brazil.To reach its objective, the former steps of this project are the s…
The present research proposal will cover specific topics that have not yet been explored for Brazilian kimberlite occurrences, such as 1) identification and characterization of the different crystal populations presented in these heterogeneous hybrid kimberlite rocks (e.g., cognate minerals vs. xenocrysts), based on the new recommended criteria focused on the micro-scale detailed study co…
