Ringkasan geologi
A single large asymmetrical stratovolcano forms 3-km-wide Asuncion Island. The steeper NE flank terminates in high sea cliffs, while the gentler SW flanks have low-angle slopes bounded by sea cliffs only a few meters high. The southern flank is cut by a large landslide scar. The S and W flanks are covered by ash deposits. An explosive eruption in 1906 produced lava flows that descended about halfway down the W and SE flanks, but several other eruption reports are of uncertain validity.
