Here is  a reference to an article that mentions several geyser locations in  
Bolivia:

"Geothermal Resources in Bolivia" by Oscar Luis Paz  Claure, Geothermics, 
1988, 
vol 17, #2/3, p. 391
-399.

Geysers  are mentioned as occuring at the following locations:

1) Luluni  (Bustillos Potosi): 3400m elevation, 18deg40'S, 66deg23'W
2) Rio Quetena  (Sur Lipez Potosi): 4130m elevation, no cooridnates given
3) Rio  Huayllajara or Laguna Colorada (Sur Lipez Potosi): 4780m, no 
coordinates  given
4) Rio Aguita Brava or Laguna Colorada (Sur Lipez Potosi): 4880m, no  
coordinates given


Unfortunately, further research has indicated that probably no true geysers  
exist in any of these localities (and more localities, too). Indeed, it 
appears  that there is but the slightest chance that any geyser exists anywhere in  
Bolivia. Sorry.
