摘要

Due to the contribution of a hitherto neglected ecosystem, one of the richest mineral provinces in the world, at the heart of a center of floristic diversity, may prove much more diverse and vulnerable than the current figures show.The Iron Quadrangle (local name Quadrilatero Ferrifero), located in southeast Brazil, covers an area of approximately 7200 km~2 and represents one of the most important and well-studied geological sites on the planet. It is contained entirely within the wealthy state of Minas Gerais, the area of which is approximately 587 000 km~2, larger than France. The Portuguese name, "general mines," attests to the historical ties of this state with the mining industry since colonial times. Constituted by very old-Archean and Paleoprotero-zoic-terrains, the Iron Quadrangle landscape is presently a mosaic at the ecotone of two Brazilian hotspots, Cerrado and Atlantic Forest, which have been profoundly transformed by human activities, namely urbanization and mining.
