About this document
Miocene Volcanism in South-Central Peru by Juan Ccalluco is a document available to read on EtoBox.
1) New radiometric ages from south-central Peru support increased volcanic activity during the early Miocene. 2) Rocks from the Huancavelica, Julcani, and Lircay regions lie on folded pre-Cenozoic strata, indicating the area remained positive after Eocene deformation. 3) The first pulse of Quechuan compression began between 19.5-17 million years ago based on the stratigraphic record in this region.
