Mount Gunung Sinabung game:http://www.purposegames.com/game/cross-section-of-eruption-of-strato-volcano-game music: https://soundcloud.com/wouter-bruys Mount Sinabung (Indonesian: Gunung Sinabung) is a Pleistocene-to-Holocene stratovolcano of andesite and dacite in the Karo plateau of Karo Regency, North Sumatra, Indonesia, 25 miles from Lake Toba supervolcano, located at the coordinates 3°10'14.24"N 98°23'30.42"E (those listed to the right are incorrect, and instead link to the center of Gunung Leuser National Park). Many old lava flows are on its flanks and the last known eruption, before recent times, occurred in the year 1600. Solfataric activities (cracks where steam, gas, and lava are emitted) were last observed at the summit in 1912, other documented events include an eruption in the early hours of 29 August 2010 and eruptions in September and November 2013. The volcano erupted again on November 5, 2013, for the third time in as many months on the western Indonesian island of Sumatra, forcing hundreds of villagers to evacuate, officials said. This volcano spewed a 7-km (4.3-mile) column of ash into the air, prompting authorities to impose a 3-km evacuation radius. The military helped evacuate 1,293 people from four villages around the volcano, which is 88 km from the provincial capital, Medan. The number of evacuees was expected to rise. No casualties were reported. About 14,000 people were forced the evacuate when the volcano showed signs of activity in September. Sinabung is one of nearly 130 active volcanoes in the world's fourth-most populated country, which straddles the "Pacific Ring of Fire". On November 11, 2013, a pyroclastic flow, a fast-moving avalanche of ash, lava fragments and air, was seen racing down the peak. Since then, the volcano has blasted out one to two ash explosions every day.Gunung Sinabung kuwi sawijining gunung ing dataran dhuwur Karo, Kabupatèn Karo, Sumatra Lor. Sinabung bebarengan karo Sibayak ing sacedhaké, minangka gunung geni aktif ing Sumatra Lor. Kanthi elevasi 2.460 meter, gunung iki dadi pucuk paling dhuwur ing Sumatra Lor. Koordinat pucuk gunung Sinabung yakuwi 3° 10 menit LU, 98° 23 menit BT.Gunung Sinabung (bahasa Karo: Deleng Sinabung) adalah gunung api di Dataran Tinggi Karo, Kabupaten Karo, Sumatera Utara, Indonesia. Sinabung bersama Gunung Sibayak di dekatnya adalah dua gunung berapi aktif di Sumatera Utara dan menjadi puncak tertinggi di provinsi itu. Ketinggian gunung ini adalah 2.460 meter. Gunung ini tidak pernah tercatat meletus sejak tahun 1600[3] tetapi mendadak aktif kembali dengan meletus pada tahun 2010. Most of Indonesian volcanism stems from the Sunda Arc, created by the subduction of the Indo-Australian Plate under the Eurasian Plate. This arc is bounded on the north-northwest by the Andaman Islands, a chain of basaltic volcanoes, and on the East by the Banda Arc, also created by subduction.[3] Sinabung is an andesitic-dacitic stratovolcano with a total of four volcanic craters, only one being active.[4] August 2010 eruption[edit] Wikinews has related news: Mount Sinabung erupts in Sumatra, Indonesia On 29 August 2010 (local time), the volcano experienced a minor eruption after several days of rumbling.[5] Ash spewed into the atmosphere up to 1.5 kilometres (0.93 mi) high and lava was seen overflowing the crater.[5] The volcano had been inactive for over four centuries, with the most recent eruption occurring in 1600.[5] 6,000 of the 30,000 villagers who had been evacuated returned to their homes on 31 August 2010.[6][7] The volcano was assigned to category "B" In Indonesia, as it was inactive for more than 400 years (volcanoes in category "A", must be monitored frequently).[8][9] The Indonesian Red Cross Society and the Health Ministry of Indonesia sent doctors and medicines to the region.[7] The National Disaster Management Agency provided face masks and food to assist the evacuees.El monte Sinabung (en indonesio: Gunung Sinabung) es un estratovolcán1 de 2.460 msnm formado en el Pleistoceno y situado al norte de la isla de Sumatra (Indonesia), en un área fundamentalmente agrícola. Se encuentra muy cerca de otro volcán, el Sibayak,2 y a 27 km de Brastaggi.3 Su última erupción fue en agosto de 2010, después de 400 años en calma. El volcán se encuentra en el Arco de Sonda, una cadena volcánica que une el Cinturón Alpide con el Cinturón de Fuego del Pacífico. Tiene cuatro cráteres que se caracterizan por componerse de andesita y dacita, de los que sólo uno está activo.4 Monte Sinabung (Indonésio:Gunung Sinabung) é um estratovulcão de andesito e dacito do Pleistoceno - Holoceno , situado no planalto de Karo, na regência de Karo, província da Sumatra do Norte, Indonésia. As suas encostas estão cobertas por muitas escoadas de lava. Várias fumarolas foram vistas no cume em 1912, mas não foram registadas erupções históricas até à erupção da madrugada de 29 de Agosto de 2010
