TFA blurb review

[edit]

Cerro Tuzgle is a dormant stratovolcano in the Susques Department of Jujuy Province in northwestern Argentina. Tuzgle is a prominent volcano of the back-arc of the Andes Mountains. Part of the Central Volcanic Zone of the Andes, its summit is 5,486 metres (17,999 ft) above sea level and grew during different stages over a caldera and lava domes. Several major lava flows emanate from the summit crater. The first volcanic activity of Tuzgle occurred 650,000 years ago and formed the Tuzgle Ignimbrite. Subsequently, lava domes and lava flows were erupted; scientists have proposed two different schemes for naming the units. The latest lava flows are dated at 300,000 years ago and volcanic activity may have continued into the past 10,000 years. Several thermal springs are associated with the volcano, and some have been investigated for possible geothermal energy production. Sulfur was formerly mined on the mountain. (Full article...)
