Mashū volcano in Hokkaido has been highly active through the Holocene and produced many eruptions of varying size and eruption style, including a large caldera-forming eruption at ~7.6 ka. To better understand the history of the volcano and magmatic processes occurring at Mashū we undertook field work to sample eruptive products (pumice, ash) for geochemical analysis. In total, 48 rock samples were collected from >11 eruptions and multiple carbon samples were obtained to refine eruption ages. Carbon dates provide new constraints on chronology and indicate that previously undated eruptions occurred between 1.1 and 2.2 kyr at Mashū and at ~4.6 ka. Pumice and lava samples were analysed for major, trace element and isotopic (Sr, Pb) compositions that highlight the relatively homogeneous composition of the dacite magmas erupted during each episode. Only minor temporal changes in magma chemistry are observed during and following the 7.6 ka caldera-forming eruption suggesting that the same silicic magmatic system continues to feed young eruptions. Ongoing work will assess changes in mineral zoning and compositions to assess magma temperature, eruption triggers and timing of magmatic processes.
