The Honggeertu volcanic field is located in Nei Mongol Province, NW of Beijing. The basaltic volcanic field consists of a group of six cinder cones extending along an arc for about 10 km that were considered to be of Holocene age by IAVCEI (1973). Liu (1998, p.c.), however, considered the existence of Holocene volcanism at this location to be uncertain.
