Abstract
We present the first record of obsidian from the Meliquina (MQ) geochemical group at Bahía Coique, Los Ríos Region, Chile. This case extends to three the geochemical groups recovered in archaeological contexts and identified by non-destructive techniques, circulating in both slopes of the Andes Mountains, between northern Patagonia and Araucania.
