Abstract: | In this work the temperature profile for the lithosphere was determined using data from radiogenic heat source and heat from other sources from 0 to 150 km depth was determined using a suitable mathematical expression. The temperature at the base of the lithosphere was given between 1200°C to 1600°C. The Fourier’s law was applied and the results showed that the profile range from 27.0°C to 1483.3°C. These results compared favourably well with existing literature values. |
