The Puer Basin region, where Yangtze continental block and the Tethyan orogen collide, provides a favorable area for studying the processes of magmatic evolution, intracontinental earthquakes and hydrothermal systems. Focused on these issues, we have acquired a three-dimensional electrical model of...
