Ore systems are located in zones of enhanced and focused heat and fluids flux within the lithosphere. In order to target deep ore deposits under cover, a better understanding of lithospheric architecture is essential, especially in relation to magmatism and fluids. Here we attempt an integrated approach using zircon Lusingle bondHf isotopic mapping (455 samples with 5049 zircon analyses, including 1021 new data), combined with whole-rock geochemistry and isotopes of mantle-derived mafic rocks, high-resolution seismic tomography from 325 seismic stations and new thermochemical modelling, to establish the lithosphere architecture in southeastern Tibet. The integrated data suggest lithospheric refertilisation accompanied by heat flux from the asthenosphere, and also reveal the evolutionary pathway of the volatile components. The approach adopted in our study can be used in exploration for porphyry Cusingle bondAu, orogenic-Au and rare earth element deposits in Southeastern Tibet, and illustrate the usefulness of lithosphere-architecture mapping as a useful tool for mineral exploration.
