Cerro Castellan is a high stack of volcanic rocks, including ash, lava, and tuffaceous rocks. It is capped by a dense lava flow underlain by various tuffs and basalts. A northwest-trending fault cuts the eastern flank of Cerro Castellan. It is also known as Castellan Peak or Castolon Peak. The mountain is part of a series of summits once known as the Carazones Peaks.
