Abstract: | A Precambrian granulite terrain of the Brazilian shield presents an average Tl content of 350 ppb, very near to Shaw’s figure for the lower continental crust. Thallium, &8 in other rock types, shows close coherence with Rb and K. The mean Rb/Tl value (193 for 53 samples) falls in the range of the ‘normal’ crustal values, while the K/T1 values (145,000 average) are higher than values for igneous rocks, aa are the values for K/Rb. The results support the authors’ hypothesis that granulitic rocks have undergone partial melting with contemporaneous depletion of Rb and Tl in relation to K. |
