Background
The basaltic-to-dacitic Sukai stratovolcano was active about 1.6-0.9 million years ago (Nakano et al., 2001-). Koshin-zan volcano is part of the Sukai edifice, and activity of the roughly 1-million-year-old Kesemaru-yama volcano to the south overlapped with activity at Sukai-san volcano.---
