Recently seismic activities are observed along Zagros-Bitlis suture, the activities are result of the collision between the Arabian plate and Eurasia. 'The main large-scale feature in the tomographical model is a low shear wave velocity (less than 4.5 km/sec) anomaly in the uppermost mantle (approx. 100 km depth) beneath the Plateau. This low velocity feature correlates with a long-wavelength free-air gravity anomaly and with recent volcanism whose geochemistry has a lower lithospheric mantle signature' (A. Maggi, K. Priestley Surface waveform tomography of the Turkish-Iranian Plateau).The recent seismic reports revealed that there exists thin lithosphere and layer of hot upper mantle beneath Turkish -- Iranian plateau. 'The upper mantle low shear-wave velocity zone, the high free-air gravity and deep lithospheric source depth for the basaltic volcanism are all consistent with a partial delamination of the lithosphere due to earlier lithospheric thickening resulting from the continental collision'(Surface waveform tomography of the Turkish-Iranian Plateau)......
