The high sulphur content of the springs give them a characteristic yellow-orange color.

An explosion caused by nearby drilling took place in 1999 that opened up a large crater vent.

In 2010 and 2019 other explosions took place, spewing hot mud, water and steam over the area.

[1] The hot spring water is heated from underground geothermal sources and emerge through deep cracks and vents in the crustal zone.

Superheated steam rises from below the surface of a boiling underground reservoir.
