Bachelor of Geology in the Institute of Geosciences and Exact Sciences of the Paulista State University Júlio de Mesquita Filho in 1980 and PhD in Geosciences in Mineralogy and Petrology at the Institute of Geosciences of the University of São Paulo in 1993. Approved as Associate Professor in 2002 with the thesis "Hydrothermal Alteration and Metalogenesis in Paleoproterozoic Vulcano-Plutonic Systems in the Tapajós Gold Province, South Amazon Craton" at the same institution and promoted to Associate Professor III in 2012. He is currently Full Professor of Metalogenesis and Tectonics at the Institute of Geosciences of USP, where he was hired in 1988. He began his career in the Department of Mineral Resources of the Technological Research Institute of the State of São Paulo in 01/1980 and was responsible for the Laboratory of Technological Characterization of Ores in the Mineral Treatment Division of the same Institution , where he was a member of t a project of technological development with the Japan International Cooperation Agency. He has experience in the area of Geosciences, with emphasis on Metalogenesis and Crustal Evolution, developing research on metalogenesis in Brazil and the Andes, evolution of metamorphic belts and accretionary complexes, hydrothermal alteration, volcanism, petrogenesis, geothermobarometry and on paleoproterozoic epithermal and Cu-Mo-Au in the southern part of the Amazonian craton. He is currently Director of the Geosciences Institute of University of São Paulo. (Source: Lattes Curriculum)

This project enables the continuity of the scientific collaboration between researchers from USP and UFPA, which has been taking place since the 2000s, for the development of joint and multidisciplinary research on Paleoproterozoic volcanic events and magmatic-hydrothermal mineralizing systems (Au-Cu-Mo) in the southern portion of the Amazon craton. The project focuses the largest felsic …

The tectonic evolution of the Neoproterozoic fold-and-thrust belts (Ribeira and Araçuaí belts) in the southeastern Brazil and its significance to the history and reconstruction of the Gondwana supercontinent are still open to debate. The main questions that remain unsolved are related to the type and chronology of the plate interactions responsible to the final configuration of the Wester…
The metamorphic series of the Chilean geological basement crop out within the Coastal Cordillera in Central Chile (34p-36pS). These series define a late paleozoic paired metamorphic belt and comprise the Western and Eastern Series. The former was generated in high pressure-low temperature regime and the later was formed under low pressure-high temperature conditions. The HP-LT series incl…
Reconstructing the metamorphic history of rock complexes implies the full characterization of the variations of chemical composition (including mineral zoning) of mineral phases and mineral assemblages in their textural and (micro) structural settings. This task constitutes the necessary first step in unraveling the P-T conditions of formation and paths that allow deciphering the tectonic…
Migmatites are usually complex rocks that have been objecting to many studies since the initial phase of the development of geological science. Due to great varieties in textures, structures, as well their occurrence in large areas, these rocks attracted the attention of many geologists over the last decades. The main aim of this project is to characterize petrogenetically the migmatites …

The Tapajós Gold Province, or Tapajós Mineral Province, is located in the South-Central part of the Amazon Craton. The geological and economic importance of this province can be highlighted by the production of gold in mines, which according to unofficial estimates, may reach more than 750 t. However, recently, were recognized in the province many occurrences of copper, lead, zinc and mol…
The metamorphic basement of Central Chile comprises a paired metamorphic belt which is divided into two series: a high pressure (HP)-low temperature (LT) series (Western Series) and a low pressure (LP)-high temperature one (Eastern Series). The rocks from the HP-LT series record the metamorphic conditions attained during the subduction of an oceanic crust beneath the southwestern margin o…
The tectonic significance of the high-pressure rocks occurrences, especially the blueschist facies, as markers of ancient subduction zones and or collision of tectonic plates has generated greatly interest among geoscientists in recent decades. However, only with the advances in analytical methods for determining the chemical composition of minerals and their application in geothermobarom…
