Volcanic ash of Guagua Pichincha is a thin material (<2 mm in diameter), and the main products found are dacitic, andesitic, and high-Rb acid [4] including sulfur dioxide, silicon oxide (Si[O.sub.2]), and aluminum oxide ([Al.sub.2][O.sub.3]) [5].
Formed during the Pleistocene to Holocene, the volcano consists of andesitic and dacitic lavas.
1) include mafic flows and tuffs of the Long Reach Formation and conformably overlying, fine-grained, feldspathic sandstone, siltstone, dacitic flows, and minor mafic tuffs of the Jones Creek Formation.

The geometry of this structure is masked and obliterated by many dacitic and andesitic subvolcanic bodies and pyroclastic flows (Leveratto, 1968), their ages ranging from 18 to 7 Ma (Leveratto, 1976; Bercowski et al., 1986, 1993; Verges et al., 2001).
The explosive products consist in pyroclastic deposits (Brecha Pirociastica Cantimplora; thickness = 1-4 m), conformed by dacitic blocks (20-30 cm), pumice clasts (<15 cm), and ash, that occurred intercalated with the lava flows.
