Effusive natrocarbonatite activity of Oldoinyo Lengai, June 1988
@article{Keller1990EffusiveNA, title={Effusive natrocarbonatite activity of Oldoinyo Lengai, June 1988}, author={J. Keller and Maurice Krafft}, journal={Bulletin of Volcanology}, year={1990}, volume={52}, pages={629-645} }
Oldoinyo Lengai in the Tanzanian rift valley is the only active carbonatite volcano in the world and its natrocarbonatitic lavas are unique in composition. The characteristics of effusive natrocarbonatite activity in June 1988 were studied and fresh samples were directly collected from active carbonatitic lava lakes and flows. Analyses of these samples provide the first information on natrocarbonatites since these unusual volcanic rock type was first described from the 1960–1961 eruptions. The… CONTINUE READING
