The
Kunlun Volcanic Group are a vast group of
pyroclastic cones in the
Kunlun Mountains, they are responsible for the most recent eruption in China's history. Over 70 volcanic cones form the Kunlun Volcanic Group. They are not, however, volcanic mountains, but cones. As such, they are not counted among the world volcanic mountain peaks. The group, however, musters the heights of above sea level . If they were considered mountains, they would constitute the highest volcano in Asia and China and second in
East Hemisphere (after
Mount Kilimanjaro) and one of
Volcanic Seven Summits by elevation. However, it is Mount
Damavand volcano that has that official title, not the cones. The last known eruption is on May 27, 1951.
