The study shows that the Guaishishan basic-ultrabasic complex with Ni-Cu mineralization in Beishan area, Gansu Province, is a typical example of intrusion bodies related with the magma under-plating and uplifting orogenic movement. The main evidences are discussed. Therefore, the rock-forming mechanism is that, under the decompression conditions of continental lithosphere extending, the peridotite from mantle were partially melted to form picritic magma with a Mg value of 0. 831. The magma intruded upward to crust or crust-mantle boundary and caused partial melting of the gabbroic in lower crust to form mixed magma with TTG assemblage. Subsequently, the magma developed in terms of magma under-plating according to tense-shearing brush structure series and then intruded into the upper crust to form rocks during the uplifting orogenic movement.
