some <strong>of</strong> them show a crosscutting relationship with a second,<br />
later, magmatic domain. Cores occur in most <strong>of</strong> the grains.<br />
These are rounded in shape; generally, complex internal structures<br />
are absent. Radial micr<strong>of</strong>ractures from the cores are also<br />
<strong>pre</strong>sent, probably induced by metamictization-related volume<br />
expansion <strong>of</strong> the crystal lattice (e.g. Lee <strong>and</strong> Tromp, 1995).<br />
Fifteen analyses were performed on different zircon grains<br />
(Table 1) <strong>and</strong> plotted on a conventional Wetherill U/Pb Concordia<br />
diagram (Fig. 7). Eight analyses are significantly discordant,<br />
<strong>and</strong> were excluded from the age calculation. Two analyses<br />
(spots #11, #15) with high 207 *Pb/ 206 *Pb ages, are attributed<br />
to inherited, old zircons. The five remaining analyses (spots<br />
#1, #3, #4, #5, #6) define a Concordia age <strong>of</strong> 591 5.3 Ma,<br />
the best estimate for crystallization <strong>of</strong> the Teixeira pluton.<br />
Zircons extracted from the Serra Redonda pluton (sample<br />
SR1) are prismatic <strong>and</strong> euhedral, between 200 to 300 mm in<br />
length. The color varies from pinkish to light brown. CL images<br />
reveal typical magmatic oscillatory zoning. Eighteen zircon<br />
grains were dated (see Table 1). Most <strong>of</strong> the analytical points<br />
