Recently, some reports have been generated on the seismic activity that has been generated from the Puracé volcano in Cauca. Since then, the Geological Survey has announced the intensity of the earthquakes, reaching a maximum of 3.3 at noon on Tuesday.
In a statement sent to the president of the department, Elías Carabalí, they informed him of the situation from the Geological Survey, informing: “Since recent weeks there has been a major change in the activity of the Puracé volcano; which is characterized by the increase in the number of earthquakes associated with rock fracture in the volcanic building (type VT), accompanied by fluid events within it (type LP and TR) '.
They indicated that the earthquakes occur in the volcano's area of influence and yesterday's would have occurred at less than 30 km of surface depth. In addition, constant research and monitoring of volcanoes means that action can be taken in cases of alert. However, the Geological Survey itself has emphasized that earthquakes cannot be predicted.
The Puracé was on the green level, which meant that his behavior was active and stable. However, this March 30, the information about the volcano has been updated to yellow level (III), which represents that:
Thus, the authorities specializing in these eventualities have made the recommendation to the local government to restrict the visit of tourists to the volcano due to the seismic manifestation that it has shown. He also invited the “community to remain attentive to any changes that occur in the activity of the volcano”.
The Puracé Volcano belongs to the Coconucos volcano chain in Cauca, which is also joined by: Piocollo, Curiquinga, Paletará, Calambás, Quintín, Chaka, Killa, Manchagara, Sugar Loaf, Pukará, Amancay and Piki.
The Puracé Volcano will continue to be monitored as it is the most active in the volcano chain and of which a small fumarole would have been seen at least 30 years ago.
So far we are studying what could happen to Puracé, while another of the invitations made by the monitoring body is for the community and others to take advantage of the information that is only issued from them.
