Kazbek

Stratovolkan · Georgia · 5004 m

The glacier-covered Kazbek stratovolcano, the second highest in the Caucasus Mountains of Georgia, lies just south of the border with Russia. The summit cone and the most recent lava flows are of postglacial age, and the latest andesitic-dacitic lava flow was radiocarbon dated at about 6,000 years ago. Arrows at the top left on this 13 August 2002 NASA Space Shuttle image mark the path of an avalanche and debris flow produced by collapse of a glacier the following month.

Ringkasan geologi

The glacier-covered Kazbek stratovolcano in the Caucasus Mountains of Georgia, just south of the border with Russia, has produced long lava flows down flank valleys. The summit cone and the latest lava flows are of post-glacial age, and the latest andesitic-dacitic lava flow was radiocarbon dated at about 6,000 years ago. Gushchenko (1979) listed an 800-700 BCE eruption.
