Abstract

From the existence of the association between change profiles and high geomorphical surfaces can be very effectively indicate specific times of rolling geomorphological above, significant moments stability. This paper will seek, through the proposal to identify and characterize lateritic materials present in the higher topography portions confirming its agreement and relationship with the highest geomorphic surface area surrounding the southwest of Minas Gerais and northeast of Sao Paulo, more precisely between the coordinates 46 ° 30 '47 ° 20' W and 20 ° 00 'to 21º00' S. To accomplish such a proposal was made mapping work, micromorphological analysis, fluorescence spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction of samples of these materials allowed the characterization of selected profiles. It was later applied to Thermochronology technique of trace Fission (TTF), apatite minerals in found in the portion refer to the crystalline base with the aim of improving the geological thermal history of the sample, and finally getting the idea of geomorphology development of long term (AU)
