The Singu Plateau volcanic field, also known as Letha Taung, is a basaltic trachyandesite lava plateau in north-central Burma, N of the city of Mandalay. The lava flows originated from fissure vents and cover an area of about 62 km2. Though some previous catalogues indicated a Holocene age, Bertrand et al. (1998) provided 40K-40Ar ages of 0.25-0.31 Ma from five of the youngest flows at the southern border of the plateau.
