The Sierra de Guasayán (Eastern Sierras Pampeanas, Argentina) is formed by low to mediumgrade metamorphic rocks intruded by Cambrian metaluminous (La Soledad quartz-diorite),slightly peraluminous (Guasayán, El Escondido and El Martirizado granodiorite plutons), andstrongly peraluminous (Alto Bello granodiorite) granitoids of the Pampean magmatic arc. Chemicalcompositions of amphibole, plagioclase, biotite, and titanite indicate that these granitoids were emplaced at low pressure (mostly
