Abstract

Plumbotectonics is an attempt to model the geochemical behaviour of U, Th and Pb, among major terrestrial reservoirs in agreement with observational data. By recycling rock through the orogenic environment, a dynamically communicating upper crust, lower crust, and mantle can produce the required patterns of lead-isotope evolution.
