I am currently pursuing a Bachelor's degree in Geology at the University of São Paulo (USP). I have a particular interest in the fields of Geochronology, Isotopic Geology, and Precambrian Terrains. I am involved in a Scientific Initiation project focused on the petrochronology of monazites in high-pressure granulites, with an emphasis on the LASS-ICP-MS technique. Additionally, I am participating as a visiting researcher at the Timescales of Mineral Systems Group at Curtin University. I have also conducted research on the significance of characterizing the form, typology, and cathodoluminescence images of zircon crystals in interpreting U-Pb ages using the LA-ICP-MS technique in granites. Furthermore, I have studied the characterization of the maximum depositional age and detrital provenance of metasediments through U-Pb analysis using the LA-ICP-MS technique in detrital zircons.

Monazite ([ETRL, Th] PO4) is a commonly used petrochronometer in metamorphic rocks due to its ability to record the timing of prograde and retrograde metamorphism and its association with metamorphic reactions. Despite being extensively studied in (ultra) high-temperature metamorphic rocks, the behavior of monazite in high-pressure rocks has been poorly described in the literature, sparse…
Monazite is a robust geochronometer and is widely used for dating high-grade metamorphic events in pelitic and psammitic granulites. Monazite generally displays compositional zoning, and the distribution of trace elements (in particular HREE, Y, and Th) are used to infer its participation in metamorphic reactions. The growth or consumption of monazite can be correlated with the formation …
Monazite is a common accessory mineral in metapelites and metapsammites and has been extensively used as a geochronometer for dating high-grade metamorphic events. Compositional zoning and the trace element distribution in monazite, particularly Y and Th, reflects the growth and consumption of monazite in respect to major phases (e.g., garnet, biotite, melt), allowing the participation of…
