Talk:Mount Kilimanjaro

Inconsistent age figures: 4 million vs 2 million years

The article gives two significantly different figures for the age of Mount Kilimanjaro. The infobox states the volcano is "4 million years" old, while the opening paragraph states it was "formed from volcanic activity over 2 million years ago" — a 100% discrepancy with no explanation in the prose. One of these figures appears to be incorrect, and the article makes no attempt to reconcile them or attribute them to different sources. Could someone with access to current geological literature verify which age is accurate and add the appropriate citation?
