Mount Makaturing

Makaturing

Stratovulcano · Philippines · 1818 m

Several prominent pyroclastic cones are visible on the flanks of Makaturing volcano (left of center), located NE of Illana Bay (lower left) and south of Lake Lanao (upper left) at the west end of a chain of volcanoes in central Mindanao. Eruptions from this volcanic chain have variously been attributed to Makaturing and the historically active Ragang.

Sintesi geologica

Mount Makaturing is the central edifice in the Butig Mountains S of Lake Lanao in central Mindanao that includes a complex of volcanic cones and craters stretching 10 km E and 15 km WSW. Eruptions at one time attributed to Makaturing were ascribed to neighboring Ragang volcano to the east by the Catalog of Active Volcanoes of the World (Neumann van Padang, 1953), but PHIVOLCS has listed many eruptions for Makaturing. A dense cover of vegetation suggests long quiescence, but solfataric activity continues.
