An Andaman volcano wakes up with Unzen, Pinatubo
NEW DELHI. June 26: A volcano on a tiny, uninhabited Indian Ocean Island has erupted after being dormant for nearly 200 years and Is periodically spewing hot lava and ash. officials said today, reports AFP
Scientists of the Geological Survey of India (OS!) were studying the eruption on Barren Island and it was not clear how long It would last, a GSI official here said.
Barren Island is among the 3.000 islands that make up India's Andaman and Nicobar islands governed by New Delhi. Port Blair, its capital. Is some 1,190 kilometres (743 miles) from Madras.
The official said the eruption. the first since 1803. was first noticed by an Indian naval ship at the end of April.
"It is throwing out lava and ash up to 800 metres (2.640 feet) high," he said. ‘Our scientists have gone there and conducted some studies. The studies are still continuing.'
These are periodic activi-
ties.' he added. "A volcano which is dormant will erupt one day. How long it will remain active, this I cannot say.'
The Telegraph newspaper said Barren Island was con nected to the Indo-Burmese arc of mostly dead or dormant volcanos, and that lava ejected by the volcano was flowing down the slope of a cone.
It also quoted GSI scientists In Calcutta as saying thal the eruption 'was likely to affect the natural vegetation as well as fisheries in the area' but it would in no way disrupt life in Port Blair. 125 kilometres (78 miles) away.
But GSI scientists said the Barren Island volcano was unrelated to the volcanic bell known as the Pacific ring of fire which runs through Japan and the Philippines.
Deadly gas
Meanwhile, dark burning flows of gas and stones streamed down and erupting volcano in southwestern Japan today, raising fears of a violent
explosion. Japan's Meteorological Agency said.
Huge billowing clouds known as pyroclastic flows rolled down the eastern slope of the mountain like an avalanche, according to televised reports from the scene.
The Meteorological Agency warned nearby residents a major explosion could occur at any time.
'Earthquakes around the volcano are growing in frequency while the volume of pyroclastic flows ts increasing.’ said an agency official.
AP adds from Manila. Mount Pinatubo rumbled Wednesday, spewing ash across a wide area and forcing President Corazon Aquino to cancel a visit to a town devastated by the Volcano.
The death toll from nearly three weeks of eruptions rose to 338 as late reports reached Manila. Victims include the 9 year-old daughter of a US Air Force sergeant and a Filipino serving in the US Navy.
