The Xianshuihe fault zone,located in southeastern part of the Tibetan plateau,is a huge and active sinistral strike-slip fault zone.Isotope chronological study on this fault zone can provide age evidence on the mass transport and uplifting history in southeastern part of the Tibetan plateau.Ar-Ar thermochronological study show that during the late Cenozoic sustained sinistral strike- slipping of the Xianshuihe fault zone,the differential uplifting occurred in different part of the Fault zone.Comparing with the Ar isotope system closure temperature of biotite,the time of uplifting and cooling through 350℃in the westnorthern part,the middle part and the eastsouthern part of the Xianshuihe fault zone is 10.39~10.13Ma,5.70~4.42Ma and 3.60~3.46Ma respectively. This result prove that southeastern part of the Tibetan plateau has experienced episodic uplifting since late Cenozoic and the episodic uplifting time is~10.1Ma,5.7~4.4Ma and~3.6Ma respectively.
