Lena Virgínia Soares Monteiro earned her Bachelor of Science in Geology in 1994 from the University of São Paulo (USP), Brazil. She completed her Master of Science in Geosciences in 1997 and obtained her Ph.D. in 2002, both from the same university. Her master's and doctoral research focused on the metallogenetic evolution of non-sulfide and sulfide-rich zinc-(lead) deposits in the Vazante-Paracatu Belt, Brazil. She leads research groups in mineral systems and ore genesis, particularly related to IOCG and hydrothermal lead-zinc deposits hosted in carbonate rocks, utilizing multi-analytical approaches. Additionally, she conducts research projects on the hydrothermal evolution in atypical carbonate reservoirs. Dr. Monteiro is a Full Professor at the University of São Paulo, serving as the Head of the Department of Sedimentary and Environmental Geology, and also manages the GeoFluid Laboratory.

The Carajás Province, located in the Amazonian Craton, stands out worldwide for its metallogenetic diversity, giant iron ore reserves, and large amounts of iron-copper-gold oxide (IOCG) deposits. The IOCG deposits had a complex geological evolution and record the superposition of at least four hydrothermal events in the Neoarchaean and Paleoproterozoic (ca. 2.70 Ga; ca. 2.57 Ga; ca. 2.05 …
The Carajás Province hosts the largest quantity of world-class iron oxide-copper-gold (IOCG) deposits currently known. Although these deposits are important targets of mineral exploration, there is not a single genetic model able to explain all the peculiarities of each deposit, and reflect the unique evolution of this metallogenetic province. Additionally, detailed studies tracing the po…
The Carajás Mineral Province is host to important iron oxide-copper-gold deposits (IOCG), such as Salobo, Cristalino, Igarapé Bahia/Alemão, Sossego and Alvo 118. The economic relevance of the IOCG deposits in the province also guides the mineral exploration in the region. However, a conceptual model to assist in the distinction between economic and sub-economic targets is still necessary.…
