Nevado San Francisco , or Cerro San Francisco (Spanish pronunciation: [neˈβaðo/ˈsero saɱ fɾanˈsisko] ), is a stratovolcano on the border between Argentina and Chile ,[3] located just southeast of San Francisco Pass . It is considered extinct and is one of the several 6,000 m (19,700 ft ) peaks in the area, of which the chief is the Ojos del Salado . It is on the border of 2 provinces: Argentinean province of Catamarca ; Chilean province of Copiapo .[4] [5] [6]
The volcano is part of the Central Volcanic Zone of the Andes[7] and reaches an elevation of 6,016 metres (19,738 ft ).[8] [4] [a] [b] It is composed from andesite with the exception of basaltic cones and lava flows on the eastern side. These cones are part of the Peinado lineament and a sample was dated 200,000 years ago by argon chronology.[15] : 74–75 They are noteworthy for their olivine phenocrysts .[7] One lava flow less than one million years old reaches a length of 11 kilometres (6.8 mi ).[16] The western slopes contain dacitic lava domes .[17] On the summit lie two circle-shaped constructs, of Inca or Formative period ages.[15] San Francisco was first climbed by Walther Penck (Germany) on 16 December 1913.[18]
^ Other data from digital elevation models : SRTM yields 6,027 metres (19,774 ft ),[9] ASTER 6,019 metres (19,747 ft ),[10] SRTM filled with ASTER 6,027 metres (19,774 ft ),[10] ALOS 6,019 metres (19,747 ft ),[11] TanDEM-X 6,069 metres (19,911 ft )[12] and a handheld GPS survey by Maximo Kausch in October 2012 6,045 metres (19,833 ft ).[13]
^ The height of the nearest key col is 4,911 metres (16,112 ft ),[14] leading to a topographic prominence of 1,124 metres (3,688 ft ) with a topographical dominance of 18.62%. Its parent peak is Ojos del Salado and the Topographic isolation is 34.8 kilometres (21.6 mi ).[13]
