Chillahuita is a dacitic lava dome in northern Chile. It may have formed after the Pleistocene, although argon-argon dating on amphibole has indicated an age of 370,000 ±40,000 years. It has an altitude of about 4,750 metres (15,580 ft). It formed in a single non-explosive eruption. The eruption of the Chillahuita dome appears to have been controlled by local fault systems associated with the Altiplano-Puna volcanic complex, which also has geochemical similarity with Chillahuita lavas.
