What is Andesite Contamination in Chile about?

The Central Volcanic Zone (CVZ) of the Andes has extreme crustal thickness and high plateaus which are more typical for collisional settings like Tibet. Andesites have erupted in the Andean arc throughout the Mesozoic, but crustal thickening and plateau uplift developed only in the late Miocene. This project explores the relationship between crustal thickening and arc magmatism, focussing on the composition of andesites.
