What appears to be an enormous ash cloud rising from the eruption of a long dormant volcano named Puyehuein southern Chile on June 4, 2011, isn’t quite matching up with the location of the recorded earthquakes today in the immediate area.
“The Cordon Caulle (volcanic range) has entered an eruptive process, with an explosion resulting in a 10-kilometer-high gas column,” Chilean state emergency office said.
The thing is, for some unknown reason, as of this writing, eight earthquakes near magnitude 5 have shook the earth near the Puyehue volcano. The problem is, the earthquakes are located 20 to 40 miles away from the eruption! Very Strange Indeed. (Strange because one would think that the earthquakes associated with a given erupting volcano would be very close to the volcano itself. Instead, these strong quakes are apparently tectonic.)
There’s something brewing or interacting quite a distance from the eruption, but is quite obviously directly related. We’re talking about enormous energies here.
In addition, apparently the volcano itself has not erupted from it’s old caldera. Instead, it has ripped a huge gash into the surface of the earth 6 miles long by 3 miles wide, 2.5 miles away! Amazing.
Thousands of people are being evacuated from the area, which is located about 60 miles northwest of San Carlos. The region was deeply shaken by a pair of very strong earthquakes during 2010, a magnitude 7.1 and a very large magnitude 8.8 quake, all located along the Pacific Ring of Fire.
Chile’s chain of about 2,000 volcanoes is the world’s second largest after Indonesia. Some 50 to 60 are on record as having erupted, and 500 are potentially active.

The ash plume has now reached Argentina.
The eruption apparently extends to the Caulle Mountain Range, an adjacent volcanic fissure.

Why post about volcanic eruptions like this one on a ‘survival’ site?
Answer: To illustrate how we become complacent. This volcano has been inactive for decades, and then suddenly, ka-boom. We must realize that we are just tiny specs of life living on top of a thin crust of shifting solid earth, and at the mercy of mother nature. It’s always stunning to observe the power that lies beneath our feet.
Yes, a linear vent eruption.
I referred to it as a tablet eruption but then my geologic nomenclature is rather old fashioned and not as up to date as cripplecreek’s.
Its called a linear vent eruption and they aren’t even remotely uncommon.
Now you tell us. I’ve already sold all my possessions and left my wife and children for a cave in the Yukon Mountains. This stinks.
They appear to be very common in Iceland. It looks like they happen in Hawaii as well but under a different set of conditions.
Here is the magma chamber under Yellowstone.

>>>I think it is interesting that dormant volcano after dormant volcano keeps waking up. What’s up with that?<<<
The Internet. Not so many years ago you’d have never known about this eruption because the MSM would’ve ignored it like they did most world news. Thanks to the net we are now able to be aware of things that the MSM still ignore. This does not mean we’re having any more natural events than we used to, it just means we know about more of them these days.
I’m suggesting that this eruption may be associated with last year’s megaquake which was only about 100 miles away.
Thanks for the ping!
Gog and Magog are hooking up already. It won’t be long now.
It’s the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine.
So is the pointy end of South America still in the same place?
Hey, this is TEXAS man. What happens in Summer time in Texas? HOT and Hotter!!
And the number of 9.0 earthquakes that are happening? We’ve had two within a year (Japan and Chile).
Oh didn't you get the memo mankind is the cause of these volcanoes. J/K but you can bet that at least one on the loony left will say it.

Oh my God!
A volcano is erupting in....gasp....a volcanic zone!
Film at 11!
The end is nigh.
catastrophic!
Yeah, if we had summers like the rest of the pansies in the country, we would be overrun with people.
The whole Pacific Ring of Fire is a volcanic zone.
