The Jingbo volcanic field is in the Jingpo Lake region of Heilongjiang province [3] 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]
The construction of the cone of the volcano began approximately 1 million years ago, as the eruptive materials transitioned into trachytic pyroclastic and lava flows. During the cone-construction stage, major Plinian-type eruptions occurred 448, 67.6, 85.8 and 24.5 thousand years ago (ka) and deposited ash in the Japan sea . [ 15 ]

[2] [3] This event is known as the Millennium Eruption or Tianchi eruption. [4] It is one of the most powerful volcanic eruptions in recorded history; classified at least a VEI 6. [5] [6] [7]
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.
