Post-collisional ultrapotassic volcanic rocks (UPVRs) in the Tethyan domain archive crucial information about the composition and evolution of the lithospheric mantle, offering valuable insights into deep geodynamic processes. The Tibetan Plateau, particularly the Lhasa Terrane in its southern part,...
