In the eastern segment of the Central Asian Orogenic Belt (CAOB), there is widespread volcanic magma activity. However, there is still considerable controversy over the formation mechanisms and material sources of these volcanoes. The mantle transition zone (MTZ), as a necessary channel for the upwa...
