New evidence worldwide has linked the surface locations of mineral deposits and their crustal-scale electrical conductivity footprint. We examine the relationship between the Gangdese Miocene porphyry copper deposits, Tibetan Plateau, and the electrical conductivity signature fro ...
Both low resistivity zones and low velocity zones are distributed in the middle-lower crust of the western Lhasa terrane, Tibetan Plateau, China. Some estimates from electrical resistivity data suggest large volume fractions of silicate melts that are difficult to reconcile with ...
The Dinggye region, in the central part of the Himalayan orogenic belt, includes the southern part of the Xainza-Dinggye rift and the Mabja Gneiss Dome with leucogranite cores. Previous studies of gneiss domes in this region report the existence of channel flow processes or tecto ...

Controls on the metallogenesis of the Lhasa–Mozugongka district, Gangdese Belt, Tibetan Plateau

Constraints on melt distribution and viscosity from the 3-D electrical structure of the lithosphere

Some of the largest and most significant Miocene porphyry copper systems in China are within the Gangdese metallogenic belt on the southern Tibetan Plateau. It has been recognized that the crustal architecture and rheology, derived from regional tectonic events, has direct implic ...
The tectonic dynamics of the Lhasa-Gangdese terrane, southern Tibet, are still unclear and open questions persist regarding the structure, physical properties, and rheology of the lithosphere. A three-dimensional electrical resistivity model was generated beneath the Lhasa terran ...
The Xainza-Dinggye rift, an approximately north-south trending Cenozoic fault zone across the Lhasa Terrane, is an ideal location to investigate extensional mechanisms in the upper crust and lithospheric deformation caused by the subducting Indian Plate beneath the central-southe ...
