  • Descrição: The amalgamation of tectonic blocks during the Brasiliano/Pan-African orogeny has been the main subject of study of several works in recent years. From the integration of a diversity of data, including the geophysical potential data and a review of the provenance of metasedimentary sequences based on detrital zircons and the geochemistry of granitoids, the tectono-metamorphic evolution of the Northern segment of the Dom Feliciano belt is addressed. Results reinforce the similarities between the Brusque and Paranaguá terranes and the Itajaí-Perimbó Shear Zone as a major tectonic boundary. The kinematic model envisaged highlights the control of basement blocks in the present tectonic geometry of the orogenic belt. In this new model, modern South American coordinates are adopted as the reference frame, with the Curitiba terrane moving towards SSE and the Angola Craton towards NNW, with the Luís Alves terrane trapped in between. This kinematic model is corroborated by aeromagnetic and gravimetric data that highlighted the importance of the Itajaí-Perimbó Shear Zone as a major tectonic boundary in the northern segment of the belt, characterized as a suture zone separating two tectonic blocks with a distinct history of geodynamic evolution. The oblique collision between the blocks resulted on the development of a dextral transpression along Itajaí-Perimbó shear zone that is the main boundary between Luís Alves and Brusque terranes, the sinistral strike-slip Palmital Shear Zone that separates the Luís Alves and the Paranaguá terranes and by a frontal thrust, represented by the Icapara- Negra Shear Zone that bounds the already amalgamated block of the Luís Alves and Curitiba terranes from the outer Paranaguá terrane. [Display omitted] •Itajaí-Perimbó Shear Zone configuring a suture zone.•Brusque and Paranagua Terranes are correlated to the Kaoko Belt.•Florianópolis and the Western Kaoko Terranes could be correlated as arc related.•A possible new cratonic bridge between Brazil and Africa should exist.•West Gondwana could be divided into two orogenic systems by South Adamastor Ocean.
