Geochemical data from samples from Fuego volcano, Guatemala

The dataset includes whole rock geochemical data collected by X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF), and geochemical analyses of glass and plagioclase microlites collected by electron probe microanalysis (EPMA) at the University of Edinburgh. The samples are volcanic basalt to basaltic andesite and were collected from the Fuego volcano, Guatemala, between 2012 and 2025. The XRF data were produced by the XRF facility in the School of Geosciences at the University of Edinburgh and the EPMA data were collected by Amelia Bain on a Cameca micro-probe in the School of Geosciences.
