El Pais is a monogenetic lava flow field located 16 km southeast of Peine town in the Altiplano-Puna area, Antofagasta region, Chile. El Pais is a monogenetic lava flow field located 16 km southeast of Peine town in the Altiplano-Puna area, Antofagasta region, Chile. El Pais is composed by lava flows of small-to-moderate volumes, which are fed from individual point sources unassociated with a central volcano of large-volume (stratovolcano) typical of the Andean arc. This lava flow field was emplaced in an area dominated by thin-skinned deformation under a compressive tectonic regime, where multiple volcanic centers (monogenetic and polygenetic volcanoes) have been developed. The volumetric and chemical evolutions were determined by fieldwork, stratigraphic, morphometric, textural (density and vesicularity), petrographic, and geochemical analyses. El Pais can be divided into three principal mafic lava flows such as Northern-, Main-, and Western-lava flows, which display an E-W orientation. Besides, at least eight ephemeral vents were identified as small erosion remnants of lava emitting point-sources. The identified vents are principally aligned in an ENE-WSW direction, east of the Main lava flow. It is inferred that El Pais was emplaced near-simultaneously above two ignimbrite sheets: Tucucaro Ignimbrite (3.2 Ma) and Patao Ignimbrite (3.1 Ma). Stratigraphically, the Main lava flow has a surface texture with strong similarities to an lava flow, composed of three unique layers well distinguishable in the field such as i) Basal, ii) Top auto-breccia, composed of sub-angular scoriaceous and dense clasts in an oxidized matrix, and iii) A single core between both auto-breccias, composed of dense lavas, exhibiting multiple cooling jointing, such as vertical to platy jointing. The advanced stage of erosion since the formation of El Pais is evidenced by the poorly preserved lava flows (flat morphology), upper auto-breccia layer, and the presence of large sub-angular blocks of lava (vesicular and dense) along the axis of the lava flows. The eruptive products are geochemically basaltic andesite (Main lava flow and ephemeral vents) and andesite (specifically in the Northern lava flow), making the lava flow field one of the most mafic in the broader region. The lava presents a glomeroporphyric texture, showing at least three different glomerocrysts: i) Plagioclase + clinopyroxene having reabsorption boundaries, ii) Clinopyroxene with reabsorption boundaries, and iii) Plagioclase with sieve-texture. The groundmass is principally composed of glass, plagioclase microlites with a low orientation preference, and opaque minerals (magnetite). This study helps understand the development of dispersed-monogenetic-volcanism (e.g., Tilocalar complex and Cerro Tujle maar), and its relationship with neighboring polygenetic volcanism (e.g., Toloncha stratovolcano) in the Central Volcanic Zone of the Andes, northern Chile.
