Tequila Volcano is constructed near the town of Tequila in the state of Jalisco, Mexico and It is the fourth highest of the state at 2940m altitude after Volcán Nevado de Colima, Volcán de Fuego and Cerro Viejo. [1] Tequila Volcano runs parallel with the Middle America Trench which is a 1,700 mile oceanic trench in the eastern Pacific ocean off the southwestern coast of Middle America stretching from central Mexico and Costa Rica. It is at the Tepic-Zacoalco rift which is very unusual, but this provides opportunities for deeper research. At least four different magmatic series has been discovered around Tequila volcano: The Santa Rosa intraplate basalts, A group of vitreous domes and flows of dacitic to rhyolitic compositions, pyroxene andesites and dacites with strong subduction signatures and amphibole bearing andesites that erupted through the flanks of the main cone.
