Bliznets is a Quaternary basaltic stratovolcano on the crest of the central Sredinny Range SW of Kebeney volcano. Cinder cones were constructed on the E flank, and a group of cones and associated lava flows cover the northern side of the volcano. Early geological studies in the Sredinny Range (Ogorodov et al., 1972) assigned Holocene ages based on morphology, but later work noted that these volcanoes appear younger because they have less tephra cover than those in eastern Kamchatka. Researchers such as Pevzner (2006) and Ponomareva et al. (2007) do not consider this volcano to be Holocene.
