Mount Pangrango

Gede-Pangrango

Stratovulcano · Indonesia · 3026 m

The summit crater (right) of Gede is at the broad summit of the volcano. Gunung Gede is one of the most prominent volcanoes in western Java, immediately adjacent to Pangrango volcano to the NW. Many lava flows are visible on the flanks of the younger Gede. Activity recorded since the 16th century has typically consisted of small explosive eruptions of short duration.

Sintesi geologica

The two peaks of the Gede-Pangrango volcanic complex overlook the major cities of Cianjur, Sukabumi, and Bogor, situated to the E, S, and NW, respectively. The summit of Gunung Pangrango, constructed over the NE rim of a 3 x 5 km caldera, forms the high point. Many lava flows are visible on the flanks of the younger Gunung Gede to the SE of Pangrango. The steep-walled summit crater has migrated about 1 km NNW over time. Two large debris-avalanche deposits are present on its flanks, one of which underlies the city of Cianjur. Activity recorded since the 16th century has typically consisted of small short explosive eruptions.

Riassunto in inglese

Mount Pangrango is a dormant stratovolcano located in the Sunda Arc of West Java, Indonesia. The mountain is formed by a subduction zone on the southern coast of Java as part of the Sunda Plate facing the Australian Plate which contains the Indian Ocean. It is located about 80 kilometres (50 mi) south of Jakarta, the capital of Indonesia.
