SANTIAGO, June 04, 2011 (From AFP) - Southern Chile's Puyehue volcano erupted Saturday, prompting evacuation orders for 3,500 people as it sent smoke billowing into the sky, authorities said. The National Service of Geology and Mining said the explosion that sparked the eruption also produced a column of gas 10 kilometers (six miles) high. The government, which earlier ordered the evacuation of 600 people, expanded that number to 3,500 people to be relocated to shelters in safe areas. Puyehue is located 870 kilometers (540 miles) south of the capital Santiago.
