Carbonatite plug in a pyroxenite-syenite complex (consisting of peralkaline syenite, nepheline syenite, pyroxenite and trachyte) that covers an area of about 35 square kilometers. The carbonatite hosts two REE deposits, known as Salitre I and Salitre II deposits.
Located about 45 km SE of Patrocínio.

Geochronology
Mineralization age: Late/Upper Cretaceous : 86.9 Ma to 74.7 MaImportant note: This table is based only on rock and mineral ages recorded on mindat.org for this locality and is not necessarily a complete representation of the geochronology, but does give an indication of possible mineralization events relevant to this locality. As more age information is added this table may expand in the future. A break in the table simply indicates a lack of data entered here, not necessarily a break in the geologic sequence. Grey background entries are from different, related, localities.
