Scoria cones and lava flows of the Manda Gargori rift are seen across this December 2019 Planet Labs satellite image monthly mosaic (N is at the top; this image is approximately 9.5 km across).The rift is one of the younger segments in the Red Sea area and NW-SE trending faults are visible through the image. Ridges of older lava flows are visible between the lighter-colored sediment. A tuff ring is visible south of the younger lavas.

Resumen geológico

The Manda Gargori rift, located north of the town of Aisa Aita NE of Borawli volcano and SE of Kurub volcano, is the youngest rift segment in the Afar depression and is only one third the width of the adjacent Manda Hararo-Goba'ad rift system to the west.
