Trocon

Trocon is a lava dome complex in Argentina. It has two summit craters and a pyroclastic cone. It is of estimated Pleistocene-Holocene age. The complex rises from an altitude of 1,968 metres (6,457 ft) and has two summit craters. The volume of the edifice is ill-defined, ranging 3.6–84.9 cubic kilometres (0.86–20.37 cu mi). Lava flows extend eastward from a pyroclastic cone.
