Abstract The development of geothermal resources requites assessment based on reliable data. The measured temperatures h m geothermal and hot spring explorations as wejl as heat flows are good parameters to delineate anomalous geothermal zones. Mhough the Curie point depth map is always sketchy, a wide compilation and analysis of magnetic data could provide a good reference of geothermal structure of Asia. The lower limit of seismicity expresses an isotherm of about 350░C and the map of seismicity itself could simply give indirect information related with geothermal * potential. I propose an international cooperative study to compile measured temperatures, magnetic data and seismicity in Asia with the purpose of conMbuting to discussions on the Asian regional geothermal potential.
