New geochronological, geochemical, and isotopic data are reported for the Capilla del Monte two-mica granite pluton in the northeastern Sierras de Crdoba. An Early Carboniferous age is established by a U-Pb zircon concordia (336 +/- 3 Ma) and a Rb-Sr whole-rock isochron (337 +/- 2 Ma). Zircon saturation geothermometry indicates relatively high temperatures (735-800 A degrees C). The granites have high average SiO2 (74.2 %), Na2O + K2O (7.8 %), and high field-strength elements, high K2O/Na2O (1.7) and FeO/MgO ratios (5.1), with low CaO content (0.71 %). REE patterns with marked negative Eu anomalies (Eu/Eu* 0.14-0.56) indicate crystal fractionation, dominantly of plagioclase and K-feldspar, from a peraluminous magma enriched in F. Isotope data (Sr-87/Sr-86(initial) = 0.7086, epsilon (Nd336) = -5.5 to -4.4 with T (DM) = 1.5 Ga, zircon epsilon (Hf336) +0.8 to -6.1; mean T (DM) = 1.5 Ga) suggest a Mesoproterozoic continental source, albeit with some younger or more juvenile material indicated by the Hf data. The pluton is the easternmost member of a Carboniferous A-type magmatic suite which shows an increase in juvenile input toward the west in this part of the pre-Andean margin. The petrological and geochemical data strongly suggest a similar intraplate geodynamic setting to that of the nearby but much larger, Late Devonian, Achala batholith, although Hf isotope signatures of zircon suggest a more uniformly crustal origin for the latter. Further studies are required to understand whether these bodies represent two independent magmatic episodes or more continuous activity.
