Background
Jumay stratovolcano rises 700 m above the city of Jalapa, just south of the boundary with folded Paleozoic low-grade metamorphic rocks. A shallow crater is located at the summit of the 2174-m-high volcano, which lies at the NE end of the broad area of Quaternary volcanic rocks in SE Guatemala. Widespread basaltic lava flows occur on the NW flank of the volcano. The age of the Quaternary volcano is not known precisely.---
