Keluo volcanic group
The Keluo volcanic group ( Chinese 科洛 火山 群 , Pinyin kēluò huǒshān qún , English Keluo volcanic field ) is a volcanic group in the Chinese province of Heilongjiang in northeast China. It is located in the Keluo Township area of Nenjiang County, roughly in the middle of the great arc of the Heilong Jiang (Amur) River. Its highest volcano is 670 m high.
The volcanic group lies at the transition from the Great Hinggan Mountains and the Song-Nen Plain (Song-Nen pingyuan 松嫩 平原 of the Sungari and Nen Jiang rivers ). There are 23 volcanic cones over an area of 350 square kilometers, five of which are relatively completely preserved: Keluo Nanshan 科洛 南山, Keluo Gushan 科洛 孤山, Keluo Jianshan 科洛 尖山, Keluo Dayishan 科洛 大 椅 山 and Keluo Xiaoyishan 科洛 小椅 山.
