Ile des Cendres
Depth:200NaN0
Coordinates:10.158°N 109.014°W
Country:Vietnam
Type:Submarine volcanoes
Age:Historical
Last Eruption:March to May 1923

Ile des Cendres (Vietnamese: Hòn Tro, also known as Veteran)[1] is a group of submarine volcanoes located off the southeast coast of Vietnam, southeast of Phan Thiết.[2] NaNkm (-2,147,483,648miles) wide and NaNm (-2,147,483,648feet) high volcanoes are characteristic for this volcanic group.[3]

The volcanism relates to a still ongoing regimen of crustal extension.[4] Argon-argon dating has yielded ages of 800,000 years to 0 on olivine tholeiite;[5] a recent eruption was recorded in 1923[6] which formed land that was later removed again by the sea.[7] A past eruption in 608 AD might be recorded in the chronicles of the Sui dynasty,[8] while future eruptions could cause tsunamis.[9]
