The six studied southwestern Colombian Plio-Quaternary volcanoes (Puracé, Doña Juana, Galeras, Azufral, Cumbal and Chiles) are located in the central part of the Northern Volcanic Zone (NVZ) of the Andes. The lavas are predominantly andesites and dacites, with lesser amount of basalt, and range 52% to 70% SiO₂. The two-pyroxenes basic and acid andesites exhibit plagioclase phenocrysts with core composition of An50–80 and An40–70 respectively. Hornblende and biotite occur in dacites in association with plagioclase cores ranging An30–50. The lavas belong to medium- to high-potassic calc-alkaline series, typical of active continental margins. Two types of lavas can be distinguished in the studied area: 1) Northeastern-type lavas which show hig...
