Colombian Geological Service issues an extraordinary bulletin because of earthquakes in Puracé Volcano: there is rock fracturing

The Servicio Geológico Colombiano (SGC) issued an extraordinary bulletin regarding an 'earthquake swarm' near the Puracé volcano in the Cauca department. The area experienced increased seismic activity, prompting environmental authorities and risk management agencies to activate monitoring protocols. The SGC confirmed the seismicity was due to volcanic-tectonic events caused by internal rock fracturing within the volcanic structure. Local residents reported feeling the tremors, which were detected up to 11 kilometers northeast of the main crater. While there were several recorded earthquakes ranging from magnitude 2.8 to 4.1, the SGC noted no significant changes in other volcanic monitoring parameters and emphasized continued vigilance. Authorities recommended maintaining calm and relying solely on institutional sources for information.
