Atacama. As such it was probably the last major 6000m+ peak in the Andes to be climbed, with the summit reaching a height of 6,400 metres (21,000 ft). The volcano has the form of a massif (which covers a surface of 281 square kilometres (108 sq mi)) constructed by two separate

Radiometric dating has yielded ages of 2.89 - 2.67 million years ago to 0.13 - 0.02 million years ago, with the volcano developing in two phases. The older group of ages has been obtained on the
