  • The Andes mountains were formed as a result of tectonic movements and faulting around 25 million years ago.

  • The mountain range harbors several active volcanoes.

  • The Andes Mountains are located farther from the Earth's center.

  • The largest salt flat, Salar de Uyuni, is found in the Andes Mountains
