Abstract
Twelve basement samples were collected from South Tibet Plateau for FTD and Ar-Ar analysis to demonstrate their uplifting history since Cenozoic era. The preliminary results from different minerals with different closure temp eratures, including apatite and zircon for fission-track dating, and K-feld spar, biotite for Ar-Ar dating, show that at least four stages of thermal h istory can be recognized in the studied area.
