The present-day heat flow varies considerably over the Earth’s surface as a function of upper mantle processes, intracrustal heat generation and thermal conductivity of rocks, (e.g. Chapman et al. 1979). Intracrustal heat transfer is commonly associated with magmatic processes and migration of post-magmatic solutions. This heat transfer is very important with regard to the formation of ore deposits, fossil fuels and hydrocarbon generation and migration (Evans, 1993).
