Azufral

성층화산 · Colombia · 4070m

Azufral stratovolcano in southern Colombia, seen here from the SE, is also known as Azufral de Túquerres.  It is truncated by a 2.5 x 3 km caldera containing a Holocene lava dome complex.  A crescent-shaped lake, Laguna Verde, occupies the NW side of the caldera.  Nearly a dozen lava domes are present, the latest of which were formed about 3600 years ago and have active fumaroles.  The last known eruption of Azufral volcano took place about 1000 years ago.

지질학적 요약

Azufral stratovolcano in southern Colombia, also known as Azufral de Túquerres, is truncated by a 2.5 x 3 km caldera containing a Holocene rhyodacitic lava-dome complex. A crescent-shaped lake, Laguna Verde, occupies the NW side of the caldera. Nearly a dozen lava domes are present, the latest of which were formed about 3600 years ago and have active fumaroles. Azufral rocks are more silicic than those of nearby Colombian volcanoes; an apron of rhyodacitic pyroclastic-flow deposits rings the volcano. The last known eruption took place about 1000 years ago.

영어 요약

Azufral is a stratovolcano located in the department of Nariño in southern Colombia, 12 km (7 mi) west of the town of Túquerres. It is the only volcano of the Western Ranges of the Colombian Andes. Its name derives from the Spanish word for sulfur, azufre. The volcano is considered semi-dormant but there are numerous fumaroles in the summit crater. The summit of the volcano has an altitude of 4,070 metres (13,350 ft), and the north-western side of the crater contains a crescent-shaped lake named Laguna Verde at 3,970 m (13,025 ft). The lake is 1,100 m (0.68 mi) long and 600 metres (2,000 ft) wide. and its bright green color is a result of the sulfur and iron-based deposits in the crater. There are also two other much smaller lakes in the crater, Laguna Negra and Laguna Cristal.
