| description | The quarries of Añashuayco are located northwest of the city of Arequipa on a peneplain formedby ignimbrites and alluvionic deposits.The geomorphology of the area is made by a traversal quebrada coming down from the Chachani volcano until its contact with the Chili river in the Uchumayo district, very closeto the La Caldera batholit. The upper sector of quebrada Añashuayco is settled by very poor people without any urbaninfrastructure. The medium sector is affected by the wastes of the industrial park Río Seco which have already infiltrated the underground water. The air quality is also very poor due to the burning of domestic garbage which produces a very uncomfortable smell. The lower sector of the quebrada is formed by ignimbrites and it is the quarries sites that have provided building material to Arequipa since Colonial times.In spite of being considered as a touristic attraction, these quarries are in complete abandonement and much polluted. Then, there is a need to join cooperation efforts from geography and education in order to get a more sustainable environment to benefit the locals and the landscape in general. |
