Temperatures of pegmatite dikes (280-720 °C) are lower than those previously estimated for the metamorphic peak (740 °C).
Composition of fluids in equilibrium with pegmatite dikes consists of magmatic and metamorphic components.
The Ponta Negra pegmatites originated by partial melting of the metasedimentary Palmital succession.
The minimum pressures for the emplacement of pegmatites are equivalent to 1.7 and 3.5 km, which correspond to the exhumation of the orogen.
The 454 ± 5 Ma U–Pb (zircon) age obtained on the Cajú syenogranite extends the time interval for the Gondwana assembly collapse magmatism in the region.
