Chutinza
Appearance
20°54′39″S 68°33′51″W / 20.9108°S 68.5642°WChutinza is a 5,184 metres (17,008 ft) high[1] inactive volcano in the Andes, part of the Millunu volcanic complex. In the first stage of its activity, andesite and dacite lava flows with minor pyroclastic components generated a stratovolcano with a crater named Cerro Chutinza Viejo on its northeastern side. Later, lava domes were erupted from the crater (Cerro Tangani), the western flank (Cerro Paja Redonda with a 2 kilometres (1.2 mi) long lava flow) and Cerro Cota 4735.[2]
