The small Manuk island is shown in this 10 September 2019 Sentinel-2 satellite image and is located in the eastern Banda volcanic arc. While the island is small, the edifice rises about 3 km from the sea floor. There appear to be several nested craters and/or flank collapse scarps opening towards the S. Geothermal activity continues on the island.

Resumen geológico

The small steep-sided island of Manuk is the easternmost volcano in the Banda volcanic arc. The truncated andesitic cone rises 3,000 m from the sea floor. No confirmed observed eruptions are known from this uninhabited island, although there was an uncertain report that a member of the 1874 Challenger Expedition saw "smoke" rising from the crater. Highly altered fumarolic areas are located within the crater and on its western rim, and were once the source of sulfur extraction by Chinese traders.
