Popis: The wide range of geochemical and isotopic signatures of dyke swarms are essential for defining tectonic settings and isotopic reservoirs, as they represent windows into the Earth's mantle. The Early-Cretaceous Buzios-Cabo Frio dyke swarm (BCFDS) represents the easternmost pre-rift magmatism within the Campos Basin's onshore basement. This magmatism is associated with the break-up of Gondwana and subsequent opening of the South Atlantic Ocean. Whole-rock geochemistry, mineral chemistry and petrography suggest an FC evolutionary process for this low-TiO2 (
