The Quixeramobim granitic batholith, located in the State of Ceará, northeastern Brazil, distant 160 Km to the SW of Fortaleza, is made up by six main petrographics facies, informally called Muxure Velho, Muxuré Novo, Agua Doce, Serra Branca, Uruque and Late Mobilizates and the minor units Boa Fé and Uruque transitional Muxuré Novo. The Muxuré Novo, Serra Branca facies and the Boa Fé subunits constitute a medium-K calc-alkaline series, made up by quartz-diorites, tonalites, predominant granodiorites and monzogranites, all with biotite and hornblende. Sizes and forms of feldspars vary in these facies from lathlike (20 to 6 cm, Serra Branca; 6 to 1,5 cm, Muxuré Novo) to almost equidimensional (ca. 2,5 cm; Boa Fé). The Água Doce rocks are mainly aphyric, greyish-bluish, medium-grained, low-K calc-alkaline types showing predominant quartz-diorites and tonalites, with biotites and sometimes amphiboles. The Uruquê facies is constituted by leucocratic, light grey to yellowish grey, aphyric, medium-grained biotite granodiorites and monzogranites; they form together with their enclaves, a medium-K calc-alkaline series. The Muxuré Velho facies, a tonalite series with variable K contents is found as enclaves and synplutonic dikes within the other granitoids facies; they are dark grey, medium-fine grained types, usually containing K-feldspar xenocrysts. As a whole, the Quixeramobim rocks with SiO 2 contents between 51% and 73 %, are meta-aluminous, enriched in alkalies, Sr, Ba and LREE and poor in HREE, MgO and CaO. LREE abundances are 2 to 3 times those usually found in normal calc-alkaline suites. The ubiquitous presence of enclaves and synplutonic dikes within batholith suggests that magma mixing played a significant part in rock genesis. In Quixeramobim, the mathematical modeling and inclination of mixing curves, as observed in variation diagrams, points to a contribution up to 65% of crustal magmas to the final composition, the remainder being attributed to mantle-derived magmas. The high contents of Sr, Ba, and LREE, with no anomaly of Eu and low abundances of HREE, indicate that the mantle derived magmas that occur in Quixeramobim batholith, were formed by melting controlled by phlogopite and hornblende of a metasomatized lithospheric mantle. Mixing of magmas occurred at a stage when they were mainly liquid. The mixed magmas evolved later by crystal fractionation, with the mechanism "side-wall crystallization" well adapted to Quixeramobim batholith. Fractionation modeling using REE, K, Rb, Ba, and Sr suggests that a source similar to Agua Doce facies can generate Muxuré Novo magmas, in turn producing, by a 35-45% fractionation, a less dense and alkali-rich liquid that form the outer shell of Serra Branca types. Regular injections of the more basic magmas Muxuré Velho liquids add heat to the crystallizing magma chambers, allowing for growth of megacrysts. Extract of residual magmas formed the Uruquê rocks.
