22°32′S 66°32′W / 22.533°S 66.533°W / -22.533; -66.533Abra Granada is a volcanic complex in the Puna de Atacama in Bolivien. It is located approximately 45 kilometres (28 mi) north of Pirquitas and is composed from a lava dome, lavas and dacitic ignimbrites centering on Cerro Granada (5,700 metres (18,700 ft)) and are dated 9.8-7.8 Ma.[1] Deposits erupted 7.9-5.0 mya by this volcano overlie the older Granada ignimbrite.[2] Other peraluminous rocks were erupted 10 mya.[3] The complex is the likely source of the Granada Ignimbrite. The ignimbrite reaches its maximum thickness in the complex.[4]
