Ringkasan geologi

The Ashikule Volcanic Field contains 10 Pliocene to Holocene pyroclastic cones at the western end of the Kunlun Mountains. Several young trachyandesitic cones lie in the area around Ashi (Aqqikkol) and Wuluke (Ulugkol) lakes. China's most recent eruption was observed by a road-building crew on 27 May 1951, at the Ashishan (also known as Ka-er-daxi or Vulkan) cone. The eruption began with a loud detonation and ejected large blocks, emitting "smoke" for a number of days. An unconfirmed eruption was reported in the 19th century.
