Abstrakt: Summary 33 major element analyses and Rb, Sr, Co, Cu, Ni, Zn, and Zr trace element data of the young volcanic rocks of SW-Bolivia are presented. These widespread volcanics of Cenozoic age which are contemporaneous with those in the adjacent northern Chile can be divided into four sequences: lavas and pyroclastics of the Julaca and Rondal Formations (Miocene), ignimbrites of the Quehua superior Formation (Miocene/Pliocene), ignimbrites of the Ignimbrite Formation (Pliocene to lower Pleistocene), and lavas and pyroclastics of the Strato-volcano Formation (Pleistocene to Holocene).
