The petrogenesis of the Pliocene Araral stratovolcano in the Andean Central Volcanic Zone, Northern Chile
The Altiplano-Puna Volcanic Complex (APVC) is a silicic volcanic complex in the Central Andean Volcanic Zone (CVZ). The APVC is underlain by the thickest known crust in a continental arc setting and the largest known magma body – the Altiplano-Puna Magma Body (APMB). Lavas of the APVC and CVZ are …
