Lake Dringo (Indonesian: Telaga Dringo; also called Sedringo or Sendringo) is a volcanic crater lake located in Pekasiran, Batur, Banjarnegara (id), Central Java, Indonesia.[2] It was formed from the eruption of Dringo volcano in 1786.[2]

Geology

Dringo Volcano was formed during the post-caldera I period, which is about 1 - 2 million years ago, as a part of the Dieng Volcanic Complex in the Batur depression region. The Dringo Volcano was built up mostly of intermediate composition and pyroxene andesite.[1][3]

Lake Dringo is the site of Dringo volcano eruption, indicated by the pyroclastic flows breccia outcrops around the lake which are generally found in a weathered weathered, brown, and altered conditions. The breccia fragments consist of pyroxene andesite: plagioclase, pyroxene, opaque minerals, and glass as groundmass.[3]
