Maly Semyachik volcano with acidic lake

Maly Semyachik volcano with acidic lake

Maly Semyachik is a stratovolcano located in the eastern part of Kamchatka Peninsula, Russia. Three overlapping stratovolcanoes were constructed sequentially along a NE-SW line, with the youngest cone, Tseno-Semyachik, at the southwest end. A hot, acidic crater lake fills the historically active Troitsky Crater, which formed during a large explosive eruption of Ceno-Semiachik about 400 years ago.
