Subregion Name: Halmahera (Indonesia)

Volcano Number: 0608-04=

Volcano Type: Stratovolcano

Volcano Status: Historical

Last Known Eruption: 1987

Summit Elevation: 1635 m 5,364 feet

Latitude: 1.38°N 1°23'0"N

Longitude: 127.53°E 127°32'0"E

The shifting of eruption centers on Gamkonora, at 1635 m the highest peak of Halmahera, has produced an elongated series of summit craters along a N-S trending rift. Youthful-looking lava flows originate near the cones of Gunung Alon and Popolojo, south of Gamkonora. Since its first recorded eruption in the 16th century, Gamkonora has typically produced small-to-moderate explosive eruptions. Its largest historical eruption, in 1673, was accompanied by tsunamis that inundated villages.

Thousands flee Indonesia volcano

"Thousands of Indonesians have been evacuated from the slopes of a volcano that is spewing out hot ash and smoke in the east of the country.

The alert around Mount Gamkonora, in North Maluku province, has been raised to its highest level amid fears a major eruption could be imminent.

Scientists have reported seeing fire and ash clouds rising as high as 4,000m (13,100ft) since Monday.

Some 8,400 villagers have been moved to special camps away from the volcano".
