Mount Nila

About

Nila volcano forms completely an isolated 5 × 6 km wide of island with the same name in the Barat Daya Islands of the Banda Sea, Indonesia. The volcano comprises a low caldera with its rims breach into the sea surface on the south and the east side. The dominantly andesitic volcano contains a young forested cone at the elevation of 781 m height. Mount Nila is a stratovolcano, and caused the abandonment of a Rumadai village when it erupted in 1968.
