Resumen geológico

The small andesitic Baluran, dwarfed by its neighbor Ijen volcano to the SW, occupies the very NE tip of Java. Gunung Baluran contains a wide crater breached to the NE. The volcano lies within a national park and game reserve. It was considered by van Bemmelen (1949b) to be of Holocene age.
