Kubah lava · Chile-Bolivia · 5598 m

The irregular 10-km-long N-S-trending chain just left of the center of this Landsat image is Cerros de Guayaques.  These rhyodacitic lava domes straddle the Chile-Bolivia border.  The 10-km-long chain is located immediately east of the Purico pyroclastic shield, part of which is visible on the left side of the image.  A well-defined summit crater was the source of  the largest lava flows, which form the lobate flows that extend 3 km to the SW.  There are no records of historical activity from Guayaques volcano.

Ringkasan geologi

The Cerros de Guayaques group of N-S-trending rhyodacitic lava domes straddles the Chile-Bolivia border. The 10-km-long chain is located immediately E of the Purico pyroclastic shield. There is some evidence for Holocene activity, and the youngest domes appear to be N of the summit crater of the dome complex (de Silva and Francis, 1991). A well-defined summit crater was the source of the largest lava flows, which traveled 3 km to the SW. There are no records of historical activity.
