Historia eruptiva de los volcanes monogenéticos de El Toro (23º05’S-66º42’W), Puna norte, Argentina

Abstract: RESUMEN. Los volcanes monogenéticos de la región de El Toro (23º05'S-66º42'W) comprenden un conjunto de rocas volcánicas máficas de reducida extensión areal (<5 km2 ) generadas durante el Mioceno Superior-Plioceno en el ámbito de la Puna norte (Zona Volcánica Central andina). La actividad de al menos cuatro centros eruptivos principales resultó en la erupción de flujos de lavas desde sendos conos de escoria, cuyo modelo de facies se ajusta al de edificios formados por erupciones de estilo estromboliano.

“…Additionally, the basin involves several hydrothermal fields directly associated with volcanic centers (Peralta Arnold et al 2016). Therefore, hydrothermal springs in the Salar de Olaroz and Cauchari are likely related to the presence of volcanic centers, which include isolated edifices along oblique volcanic belts (e.g., Presta and Caffe 2014;) and large volcanic complex calderas (Seggiaro 1994;Seggiaro 2013).…”

“…The lavas contain phenocrysts of amphibole, plagioclase, two pyroxenes and oxides in a pilotaxitic groundmass. A unique feature of the Campo Negro center compared to the other monogenetic volcanoes from the Northern or Southern Puna, is the presence of amphibole-bearing basaltic enclaves up to 3 cm long (Presta and Caffe, 2014).…”

“…The Campo Negro lavas are dark gray banded porphyritic rocks which are distinctive because of the common presence of amphibolerich basaltic enclaves -the only true basalts known in the Northern Puna (Presta and Caffe, 2014;Maro et al, 2017a). Xenoliths of quartzite are also present in these rocks.…”

“…Hence the mismatch in the geochemical and petrographic features between AL5 and AL6 units could be related to geochemical changes during eruption (e.g. Johnson et al 2008;Brenna et al 2010;Erlund et al 2010;Presta & Caffe 2014). A more detailed geochemical stratigraphy of the fallout blanket (AL6 unit) is required to fully assess this topic.…”
