Descabezado Grande (also Cerro Azul or Quizapu) is a stratovolcano located in the Maule Region of central Chile. It is capped by a 1.4-kilometre-wide (0.9 mi) ice-filled caldera and named for its flat-topped form as descabezado means headless in Spanish. A smaller crater about 500 metres (1600 ft) wide is found in the northeast part of the caldera and it has active fumaroles.The volcano is composed of andesite and rhyodacite lava flows along with pyroclastic flow deposits.
