The Keluo volcanic field may have had historic eruptions [4] The Kunlun Volcanic Group last had an eruption on 27 May 1951, and consists of at least 70 pyroclastic cones [ 5 ] The Longgang volcanic field contains 150 scoria cones but only one of holocene age [ 6 ]
China has vast mineral reserves, [2] a significant earthquake risk in its western regions and rare isolated active volcanoes throughout the country. [3] Many geological concepts were discovered very early in China's history. However, it was not until the adoption of European natural science in the late 19th century that geology became a science ...
Longgang belongs to a group of volcanoes in the Changbai Mountains. [5] 200 kilometres (120 mi) [6] farther east lies the Changbaishan volcanic field, including Changbaishan volcano on the China-North Korea border. [4] This volcano is the most active and dangerous in the area, [7] and the sole volcano to erupt felsic magma. [8]
Spatter cones and volcanoes of Quaternary age are in the Ashikule area, [7] for a total amount of over 70 cones. [23] Over 20 volcanoes have been found in the eastern part of the field, they reach heights of several 100 metres (330 ft). [24] It features perfectly preserved cinder cones.

The Hainan Volcanic Field is a 4,100 square kilometres (1,600 sq mi) volcanic field covering the northern half of Hainan, People's Republic of China. Although mostly Pleistocene-Holocene in age, minor eruptions have been recorded in the 19th and 20th centuries. [1]
China's massive stimulus package may not have any direct effect until 2025, and Tianlei Huang, a researcher for the Peterson Institute for International Economics, says Beijing needs to do way ...
The volcanic field is located geographically in China but geologically more closely related to Southeast Asia's volcano zones. The TVF is a product of one of the most important events that transpired in the Cenozoic Era, the Indo-Asian continent-continent collision which occurred ca. 59 Ma.
