PhD in Structural Geology and Tectonics from the University of São Paulo (2022) and Engineering Geologist from the Federal University of Ouro Preto (2017). Study abroad years in the Unviersity of Leeds (UK) and University of Southern California (USA) as part of undergraduate and PhD programmes, respectively. Research focus on microstructural studies of deformed rocks using Electron Backscatter Diffration, tectonic, cinematic and rheological evolution of shear zones, and structural relations between crustal discontinuities and magmatism. Contributions to geology and tectonics of the Ceará massif of northeast Brasil. Currently working of mine geology and geotechnics and developing explarion tools for rare-element pegmatite exploration in tropical and semi-arid environments. (Source: Lattes Curriculum)

Amongst the most significant tectonic features of the Borborema Province (NE Brazil) are the widespread transcurrent shear systems and expressive granitic magmatism. The chronological record between the magmatism and deformation mechanisms is only locally known. In the state of Ceará two regional scale shear zones, Senador Pompeu and Tauá, deform the crystalline basement and give rise, in…
Shear zones are important to processes of continental deformation during orogenesis and often determine the bulk strength of the lithosphere. The localization of deformation within shear zones produce specific rock deformation microstructures which result from activation of different mechanisms that accomodate plastic strain. The shear zones in the northern Borborema Province, subject of …
