Cerro Pantoja is an eroded dominantly basaltic volcano of Pleistocene age along the Chile-Argentina border. Though a cinder cone on the Argentinian side was described as Holocene by Moreno (1985, pers. comm), later work by Lara et al. (2001) mapped it as Pliocene-Pleistocene. It lies SSW of Lake Constancia, which is located immediately west of the Argentinian border, and has a dramatic steep-sided summit pinnacle.
