CHILE – A safety warning is now in place after the Lascar volcano in Chile sent an eruptive column almost 20,000ft into the sky.

Chilean officials say the rumble on Saturday, triggering minor earth tremors.

No damage in the surrounding area has so far been reported, but an initial green warning was raised to yellow.

Chile’s national geology and mining service defines “yellow” as meaning a volcano is unstable.

The classification also means experts are monitoring a site for minor explosions and appearances of smoke.
