English: Dacite pumice and dacite ash from the 15 June 1991 eruption of Mt. Pinatubo. Collected on the grounds of the U.S. Subic Bay Naval Base.
Mt. Pinatubo’s 1991 eruption was the largest on Earth since 1912. Pinatubo's big eruption is also famous for having been successfully predicted by American volcanologists. The prediction & subsequent evacuation saved thousands of lives. Located near the western margin of Luzon Island in the northern Philippines, Mt. Pinatubo is one of several subduction zone stratovolcanoes in the Luzon Volcanic Arc. Published information indicates that Pinatubo is >35,000 years old and is composed principally of dacitic and andesitic rocks. The mid-June 1991 eruptions from Pinatubo blanketed ash, pumiceous lapilli, and pumice over the surrounding countryside, including two American military bases (Clark & Subic Bay). The samples shown here are dacite pumice and dacite ash (air fall tephra) from the 15 June 1991 eruption collected at the U.S. Subic Bay Naval Base, ~20 miles south of Mt. Pinatubo.
