Resumo
A Baci. do Puaná, um:!. vasU ttea de sedimentação paleozÓica-mesozÓica, abriga um
registro estraligdfico com idades entre o Neo-Ordoviciano e o Neocr~~cto, comprttndendo
seis superseqüênci:l.S (Milani, 1997): Rio Iva; (Ordoviciano-Siluriano), Paran:Í. (Devoniano),
Gondwana I (Carbonífero-Eotrih.ico), Gondwana 11 (Meso a Neotriássico), G<.Indwana III
(Neojurássico-Eocred.ceo) e Bauru (Neocret:Í.ceo). As três primeiras correspondem a grandes
dclos transgressivos paleozóicos, enquanto as dem";s ~ão representadas por pacotes de
sedimemitos continent";s e rochas ígneas associadas.
Estas superseqüências constituem o registro preservado de suce:llõivas fases de :lCUmulação
sedimentar que se intercalaram. a per;odo. de erosio em ampla escalo.. A C"oluçio de cad.:l unidade foi
condicionada por contextos panicularesem ~rmos de dima e condições tenÔnicas. A Supen:eq~ncia

depocentros alongados de orientação geral SW·NE, sugere ter c1asido controlada por algum

O potencial petrolífero da B:lCia do Paranâ vincula-se a dois sistemas petrolíferos bem
estabelecidos: para o primeiro, favorlÍvel a hidrocarbonetos ga:loSOS, a geração OCOrreu nOS
folhelhOJ da Formação Ponta Gro.ssa e a acumulação nos arenitos do Grupo Itararé ou da
Form ação Rio Bonito; O segundo inclui geração nos folhelhos beluminosos da Formação lrali
e ac umulação nos arenitos Rio Bonito, sendo propício à ocorr(ncia de óleo. Sob vttios
;l.Spcctos, o papel do mõlgmatismo mesol.óico na maturação dos hori:oontes potencialmente
geradores da Bacia do Paraná parece ter sido um ponto crucial de sua história evolutiva, e
um item que requer investigações adidonaís.
