Abstract:A variety of mantle xenoliths were entrapped in alkalic basaltsin Huangyishan,Kiandian area,Liaoning Province, resulting from volcanic e ruption during the middle Pleistocene. These mantle xenoliths are helpful to und erstand the composition and thermal structure of the upper mantle lithosphere beneat h the Kuandian area. the equilibrium temperature-pressure, bulk density and se ismic velocity of mantle xenoliths are estimated in this paper. The results show t hat the depth of Moho is ca. 35 km to 38 km, spinel lherzolites prevail in the r ange from 38 km to 65 km, transition zone from spinel pyroxenites to garnet pyroxe nites lies between 54 km and 64 km, and garnet websterites distribute in a depthfrom 54 km to 75 km. It is supposed that the lowvelocity layer in the upper man tle is below 75 km.the thermal state of the upper mantle within depths of 45 km to 8 0 km beneath Kuandian area may be formulated as: t(℃)=847.17+1.557d+0.02235d2.
