Huambo volcanic field
15°50′S 72°08′W / 15.83°S 72.13°W[1]
Huambo volcanic field is a volcanic field in Peru. Andahua-Orcopampa lies north-northeast and Sabancaya east of Huambo,[1] east of the Rio Colca.[2] The town of Huambo lies between the two fields.[3]
The northern part of the field was active 700 BCE ± 50 years, forming a large lava flow field and a cinder cone Cerro Keyocc. The southern part of the field contains other cinder cones and lava flows. Some may be of Holocene age.
Trachyandesite is the major eruption product of Huambo.
