Borawli

Estratovolcán · Ethiopia · 784 m

Borawli stratovolcano is located E of Lake Giulietti (also known as Lake Afrera). The upper part of the volcano, seen here from the NW, consists of trachytic lava flows overlying basaltic flows. Young obsidian domes south of the volcano are the likely source of rounded pumice fragments found around the lake.

Resumen geológico

Borawli stratovolcano rises above the eastern shore of Lake Afrera, also known as Lake Giulietti. The upper part of the conical edifice consists of trachytic lava flows overlying older basaltic flows. Young pantelleritic obsidian domes south of the volcano are the probable source of rounded pumice fragments found around Lake Afrera.
