Geological summary
The andesitic Wurlali stratovolcano was constructed at the northern end of a 5-km-wide caldera on the eastern side of Damar Island in the Banda Sea. Fumarolic activity occurs in the two summit craters and on the SE flanks, producing exploitable sulfur deposits. An explosive eruption was observed in 1892 CE.
From Wikipedia
