Ringkasan geologi

Sarigan volcano forms an irregular 3-km-long island consisting of a low truncated cone with a 750-m-wide summit crater that contains a small ash cone. The most recent eruptions produced two lava domes from vents above and near the south crater rim. Lava flows from each dome reached the coast and extended out to sea. The northern flow overtopped the crater rim on the N and NW sides. The sparse vegetation on the flows indicated to Meijer and Reagan (1981) that they are of Holocene age.

Sarigan or Sariguan is an uninhabited volcanic island in the Pacific Ocean. It is part of the Northern Mariana Islands, a U.S. territory. Sarigan is located 37 kilometers (20 nmi) northeast of Anatahan island, 67 km (36 nmi) south of Guguan and 150 km (81 nmi) north of Saipan, the largest island in the Northern Marianas. The island has been sparsely populated, but in modern times has been uninhabited due to volcanic activity. It is currently a nature preserve.
