Lontras Shale
First Articulated Sponge from the Paleozoic of Brazil, and a New Organization of the Order Hemidiscosa
The Bashkirian to Sakmarian-Artinskian Itararé subgroup provides a record of the evolution of the Permian-Carboniferous glaciation in the Paraná Basin (Brazil). The glaciogenic succession was deposited under the influence of glaciers incoming from southwestern Africa. This paper presents an overview of the third-order sequence stratigraphy of that succession and a biostratigraphic summary, showing that: (1) the most complete and thick outcrop portion of the glaciogenic succession occurs in the northeastern part of the Paraná Basin, where several (at least nine) major cycles of ice advance and retreat can be recognized during the development of the Itararé subgroup; (2) biostratigraphically, two well-defined stratigraphic gaps within the Permian-Carboniferous succession are recognized, one within the Itararé subgroup, related to the Lapa–Vila Velha incised valley fill, and another at the Itararé–Rio Bonito boundary, both of which represent regional sequence boundaries; and (3) the transition between palynozones Crucisaccites monoletus and Vittatina costabilis is associated with the maximum flooding surface represented by the marine Lontras Shale, a regional marker bed located in the upper third of the glaciogenic succession.

Stratigraphy and Reservoir Potential of Glacial Deposits of the Itararé Group (Carboniferous-Permian), Paraná Basin, Brazil
Abstract The Pennsylvanian on the western rim of Gondwana can be considered a time of significant contrasts in terms of environments, revealing a unique translatitudinal disposition of the South American continent, where glaciomarine deposits and peat-forming environments, situated further south, coexisted with marine carbonate platforms and aeolian dune fields, in terrains further north. This peculiar record creates an opportunity to better understand the teleconnections of glaciation and deglaciation during the Late Paleozoic Ice Age (LPIA) between mid and low latitude regions. In the last decade, radiometric dating together with marine microfossils (mostly conodonts) has enabled a better understanding of the timing and duration of deposition of different sedimentary environments found in the climate belts that originated from a global ice-house regime. These advances in the chronostratigraphical positioning of sedimentary deposits also allow a more precise correlation between them, making it possible to estimate cause–effect patterns arising from the growth and decay of glaciers in this portion of Gondwana. This contribution aims to present an overview of the main climatic–environmental events that took place during the Pennsylvanian and to associate them with the floristic changes that occurred in the emergent lands based on palaeobotanic and palynological information. The record from the west rim of Gondwana could be roughly divided into Early, Middle and Late Pennsylvanian, exactly as proposed in the geological time-scale.

MIDDLE AND UPPER DEVONIAN CHITINOZOAN BIOSTRATIGRAPHY OF THE PARANÁ BASIN IN BRAZIL AND PARAGUAY
Current synthesis of the penultimate icehouse and its imprint on the Upper Devonian through Permian stratigraphic record
Abstract Icehouses are the less common climate state on Earth, and thus it is notable that the longest-lived ( c. 370 to 260 Ma) and possibly most extensive and intense of icehouse periods spanned the Carboniferous Period. Mid- to high-latitude glaciogenic deposits reveal a dynamic glaciation–deglaciation history with ice waxing and waning from multiple ice centres and possible transcontinental ice sheets during the apex of glaciation. New high-precision U–Pb ages confirm a hypothesized west-to-east progression of glaciation through the icehouse, but reveal that its demise occurred as a series of synchronous and widespread deglaciations. The dynamic glaciation history, along with repeated perturbations to Earth System components, are archived in the low-latitude stratigraphic record, revealing similarities to the Cenozoic icehouse. Further assessing the phasing between climate, oceanographic, and biotic changes during the icehouse requires additional chronostratigraphic constraints. Astrochronology permits the deciphering of time, at high resolution, in the late Paleozoic record as has been demonstrated in deep- and quiet-water deposits. Rigorous testing for astronomical forcing in low-latitude cyclothemic successions, which have a direct link to higher-latitude glaciogenic records through inferred glacioeustasy, however, will require a comprehensive approach that integrates new techniques with further optimization and additional independent age constraints given challenges associated with shallow-marine to terrestrial records.
Abstract Provenance studies on metasedimentary rocks of the Baixo Araguaia Supergroup of the Brasiliano Araguaia Belt, central Brazil, yield 207 Pb/ 206 Pb zircon evaporation ages for detrital zircons from quartzites concentrated around 1000–1200 Ma and 2800–2900 Ma; Sm–Nd T DM model ages of schists and phyllites scatter around 1600–1700 Ma. Facies analysis of low-grade metasedimentary rocks from drill cores suggests a sedimentary environment of basin floor and lower- to upper-slope turbidites. Nearby sources are indicated by the textural and mineralogical immaturity; together with structural geological data indicating tectonic transport of the supracrustal pile towards the NW, this suggests probable provenance from the southeastern portion of the Araguaia Belt and not from the Amazonian Craton as usually believed. The Goiás Massif, Goiás Magmatic Arc, São Francisco Craton and Paranapanema block are considered to be the best candidates. They may have formed a larger continental mass during West Gondwana amalgamation, prior to their collision with the Amazonian Craton to form the Araguaia Belt. Final timing of this collision is constrained by c . 550 Ma syntectonic granites. Similar ages for high-grade gneisses in the Rokelide Belt suggest coeval collision and coetaneous metamorphism of the Araguaia and Rokelide belts, but more geological and geophysical data are required for a decisive correlation between these belts.
