Cerro Barcino Formation
The Cerro Barcino Formation (also known as the Gorro Frigio Formation) is a geological Formation (geology), formation in South America whose strata span the Early Cretaceous to the earliest Late Cretaceous. The top age for the formation has been estimated to be Cenomanian. Earlier estimates placed the formation until the Campanian. The formation was deposited in the Cañadón Asfalto Basin, a rift basin that started forming in the earliest Jurassic. Dinosaur remains are among the fossils that have been recovered from the formation. The Cerro Barcino Formation is the second-youngest unit of the Chubut Group, which also includes the older Los Adobes Formation. Both formations cover a vast area in Chubut Province, Argentina. The two formations are distinguished by geological features suggesting a distinct change in climate, from a wetter, flood plain environment in the Los Adobes to a much more arid, desert-like environment in the Cerro Barcino.Rauhut et al., 2003 The Cerro Barcino ...

Cerro Blanco (volcano)
Cerro Blanco (, "White Hill") is a caldera in the Andes of the Catamarca Province in Argentina. Part of the Central Volcanic Zone of the Andes, it is a volcano collapse structure located at an altitude of in a depression. The caldera is associated with a less well-defined caldera to the south and several lava domes. The caldera has been active for the last eight million years, and eruptions have created several ignimbrites. An eruption occurred 73,000 years ago and formed the Campo de la Piedra Pómez ignimbrite layer. About 2,300 ± 160 BCE, the largest known volcanic eruption of the Central Andes, with a Volcanic Explosivity Index, VEI-7, occurred at Cerro Blanco, forming the most recent caldera as well as thick ignimbrite layers. About of tephra were erupted then. The volcano has been dormant since then with some Deformation (volcanology), deformation and geothermal activity. A major future eruption would put nearby communities to the south at risk. The volcano is also kno ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Cerro Bitiche
Cerro Bitiche is a volcanic field in Argentina. It is located east of the Central Volcanic Zone away from the volcanic arc within the Altiplano-Puna volcanic complex (APVC), close to Zapaleri volcano. The field is formed by seven scoria cones and lava flows, of andesite- basaltic andesite composition. The field was formed by volcanism contemporaneous with the ignimbrite volcanism of the APVC, with Cerro Guacha and La Pacana calderas being located nearby. Geography and Geology Regional setting Cerro Bitiche is located in the area of the northern Puna-southern Altiplano, within Argentina and close to the tripoint with Bolivia and Chile. The Altiplano-Puna highland with horizontal dimensions of and average altitudes of is the second highest plain in the world. Zapaleri and the Rio Zapaleri are located northwest of Bitiche. The field is located behind the main volcanic arc of the Central Volcanic Zone. The region is the site of the Miocene Altiplano-Puna volcani ...
