[2] Featuring an elongated shape, it has a height of 2,700 metres.

The seamount lies at about 25.92°N 20.30°W,[1] about 300 km to the southwest of El Hierro.

[3] The age of the seamount has been estimated to 91.1 ± 0.2 million years.

[4][3] The seamount, whose top rises up to 1,600 m below sea level from a base that stands at 4,300 m below sea level, consists of a main block elongated along a N–S direction, featuring a secondary NW–SE ridge sprouting from the south east of the main edifice.

[4] Common features with the neighbouring Drago seamount, such an elongated shape and the presence of several small volcanic cones, suggest both seamounts may share a similar formation process.
