The purpose of this study was to determine the analysis of radiogenic heat production, density and seismic velocity of the outcrops of the South Bangka Nyelanding geothermal rock. The X-ray Fluorescence (XRF) method is applied to obtain heat-carrying radioactive elements in the form of Uranium, Thorium and Potassium and other oxides which are useful for studying seismic density and velocity. The main oxides used in this study were SiO2, TiO2, Al2O3, MgO, CaO, K2O and P2O5. The results showed that the density increased from the composition of the mineral felsic (acid) - mafic (base). Conclusion, as for the relationship with heat production, the SiO2 and P2O5 elements experienced a significant decrease compared to other oxides. As for seismic velocity, the results show that seismic velocity has a strong correlation with density. Keywords: Radiogenic Heat Production, Seismic Velocity, Density, Oxides

Abstract. In this study, reconstructions of a balanced geologic cross section in the Himalayan fold–thrust belt of eastern Bhutan are used in flexural–kinematic and thermokinematic models to understand the sensitivity of predicted cooling ages to changes in fault kinematics, geometry, topography, and radiogenic heat production. The kinematics for each scenario are created by sequentially deforming the cross section with  ∼ 10 km deformation steps while applying flexural loading and erosional unloading at each step to develop a high-resolution evolution of deformation, erosion, and burial over time. By assigning ages to each increment of displacement, we create a suite of modeled scenarios that are input into a 2-D thermokinematic model to predict cooling ages. Comparison of model-predicted cooling ages to published thermochronometer data reveals that cooling ages are most sensitive to (1) the location and size of fault ramps, (2) the variable shortening rates between 68 and 6.4 mm yr−1, and (3) the timing and magnitude of out-of-sequence faulting. The predicted ages are less sensitive to (4) radiogenic heat production and (5) estimates of topographic evolution. We used the observed misfit of predicted to measured cooling ages to revise the cross section geometry and separate one large ramp previously proposed for the modern décollement into two smaller ramps. The revised geometry results in an improved fit to observed ages, particularly young AFT ages (2–6 Ma) located north of the Main Central Thrust. This study presents a successful approach for using thermochronometer data to test the viability of a proposed cross section geometry and kinematics and describes a viable approach to estimating the first-order topographic evolution of a compressional orogen.
