melt and crystals were carried upwards into a melt dominant magma body that formed at between 3.5–6 km (2.2–3.7 mi) depth. There is emerging evidence that much of the silicic magma produced was formed deeper than this in the middle or lower crust (some have suggested as deep as the upper mantle) and ascending rapidly to this magma reservoir with only brief storage there.

consistent with a tectonic trigger. The eruption occurred through a lake system which was either the southern section of Lake Huka, recently separated by pre-eruption upwarping shortly before the eruption itself or some have suggested Lake Taupō had separated with a higher level than the remaining Lake Huka about a thousand years earlier, due solely to eruptive activity of the
Poihipi volcano adjoining

These initial stages were from magma at relatively low overpressure and if stored and matured in a shallow magma chamber had a temperature of about 780 ± 20 °C, with between a week to two weeks ascent of magma before eruption. It is possible that if the later majority of the magma formed deeper,

While pyroclastic density currents were generated throughout the eruption, the peak distance reached in ignimbrite deposits was about 90 km (56 mi) during phase 8. This phase, as well as several others, before phase 10, were not that much smaller than the later Hatepe eruption of the Taupō

The timescales involved in the final eruption priming appear to be only decades long at most. The eruption itself lasted only a few months, with most of the stages as described below being continuous. The location of the eruptive vents are only known for the first four stages of the eruption. Vents

The use of years in this way in this table is because it is sortable. One day is 0.003 of a year so the eruption has arbitrarily been given a length just less than 3 months when it might have lasted from start to finish twice this. Many of the eruption stages were continuous and lasted just hours.
