densely welded ignimbrites with poorly preserved pumice and lithic fragments. The ignimbrite deposit inside the caldera shows evidence of flow forms and alteration by vapour interactions. Outside of the caldera, the ignimbrite is formed by two different cooling units with distinct characteristics. The lower cooling unit is massive, poorly welded and contains lithics and pumices; the content of these varies at different sites and there are several different types of pumices. The thickness of the lower cooling unit varies between 7 metres (23 ft) to exceeding 110 metres (360 ft), and pre-existent topography has controlled the emplacement of the unit; it crops out mainly in valleys. The upper cooling unit is thicker and covers a larger surface than the lower unit, although part of the latter may be buried beneath the upper cooling unit. The upper cooling unit was emplaced on a flat surface as a uniform deposit with thicknesses ranging from 18 metres (59 ft) in its southern sector to 60 metres (200 ft) north. The upper cooling unit is itself subdivided into a basal and an upper section; the basal section is strongly welded sometimes to the point of being

Inside the caldera, the Vilama ignimbrite was emplaced as several flow units which are usually 10–20-metre (33–66 ft) thick; some units reach thicknesses of 40–50 metres (130–160 ft). These units together are at least 400–700 metres (1,300–2,300 ft) thick and form a uniform layer of

The Vilama caldera is the source of the Vilama ignimbrite, which covers a surface of more than 4,000 square kilometres (1,500 sq mi) and was erupted concurrently with the collapse and formation of the caldera. The eruption occurred between 8.4–8.5 million years ago, but with substantial
