History of eruption; |
Since the 1600s recorded several eruptions, among them a series of eruptions between 1668-1699, 1780, 1902-1903, and 1935. The last eruption occurred in 1938, a phreatic eruption that occurred in Cikuluwung Putri Crater … |

Type of eruption; |
he character of the eruption of Mount Salak is a phreatic eruption in the central crater and side eruptions. Phreatic eruption occurs when there is a very strong accumulation of water vapor pressure beneath the surface of the earth that exceeds the resistance of the above surface layer of soil. This accumulation of moisture can be formed by touching directly or indirectly the flow of water with magma. A side eruption is an eruption that occurs on the slopes of a volcano… |
Topology & Geology; |
Salak volcano is an active volcano with strato type whose eruption is a lapse between lava flows and pyroclastic deposits. Geology and stratigraphy tentatively based on the results of previous mapping (Zaenudin, et al, 1993) that the sequence of rock from old to young consists of 16 units of rock and 7 units of rock products not mountain Salak. The result of the oldest Salak mountain activity is Salak I mountain lava and the youngest is kolorium and alluvial sediment. Genetics of Salak Mountain according to Hartman (1938) are as follows: First emerged Salak I mountain which is the oldest body and then followed by Salak II, then Sunbul Mount appears, while Kawah Ratu is estimated to be the final product of Salak Mountain, Cikulung Putri Crater and the Breath Crater which is still part of Kawah Ratu. |
