Resumen geológico

Lolo is a nearly symmetrical andesitic stratovolcano, ~3.5 km in diameter, located N of Witori volcano along the N coast of New Britain near Cape Hoskins. It is of very late Pleistocene or Holocene age and overlaps the older Kapberg volcano to the west (Blake and McDougall, 1973). Lava flows are prominent on its flanks, and a well-preserved crater 250 m wide and 60 m deep truncates the summit.
