Babuyan Claro (Mt. Pangasun) is the largest and second youngest
of 5 volcanoes that built up Babuyan Island, 100 km off the
north coast of Luzon, Philippines. Babuyan Claro is an active
stratovolcano of ca. 7 cubic km volume and has 2 summit craters
of 300 and 400 m in diameter. Smith volcano (Mt. Babuyan) 4 km
to the NW of Babuyan Claro is the youngest volcano on the island
and forms a beautiful 668 m high symmetrical basaltic-andesite
cinder cone with ca. 3 cubic km volume. Both Babuyan Claro and
Smith volcanoes have apparently been active in historical time,
although it is not always certain which volcano erupted.
Eruptions at Babuyan Claro are typically strombolian and/or
phreatomagmatic. The Askedna Hot Spring is located at the
southern base of Babuyan Claro. -> Voir la description complète
