It covers an area of approximately {{convert|100000|km2}} and consists of rhyolitic volcanic rocks, particularly ignimbrites and lavas, with smaller amounts of agglomerates and tuffs.[1] Within dacitic rocks, plant fossils have been found.[2] DescriptionThe Chon Aike Formation forms part of the Chon Aike Province, also known as the Tobífera Series, a large igneous province that covers {{convert|1700000|km2|sqmi}}.[3] The northern part of the formation, Río Pinturas, has been dated to the Late Jurassic (140–160 {{Abbr|Ma|Million years ago}}), while the western and eastern sections have been dated to 162 ± 11 Ma and 168 ± 2 Ma respectively, indicating Middle Jurassic eruptions. Fossil flora, however, suggests a Middle to Late Jurassic age. (See La Matilde Formation.)[4] During the break-up of Gondwana around 180–165 Ma, the opening of the Weddell Sea lead to extension along the western margin of the South American Plate, resulting in intra-plate volcanism in the Chon Aike area and rifting in the Magallanes Basin.[5] The Chon Aike volcanism was probably related to the subduction of the Pacific Phoenix and Farallon plates.[6] References{{portal|Argentina|Geology|Jurassic|Prehistory of South America}}1. ^{{Harvnb|Channing|Zamuner|Zúñiga|2007|loc=Regional geological setting, pp. 401–402}} 2. ^Estancia Bajo Pellegrini at Fossilworks.org 3. ^{{Harvnb|Sruoga|Rubinstein|Hinterwimmer|2004|loc=Geological setting, pp. 32–33}} 4. ^{{Harvnb|Pankhurst|Leat|Sruoga|Rapela|1998|loc=Chon Aike Formation, pp. 118–119}} 5. ^{{Harvnb|Franzese|Spalletti|Pérez|Macdonald|2003|loc=Abstract}} 6. ^{{Harvnb|Torsvik|Rousse|Labails|Smethurst|2009|loc=6.1 Jurassic reconstructions (180 and 150 Ma), p. 1325}} Bibliography{{Refbegin}}
