Ililabalekan volcano is located on a notable peninsula within the southwestern region of Lembata Island which is a part of Indonesia, previously known as Lomblen Island. On the southeastern slope of this steep-sided Volcano, a satellite cone has formed. The summit of Mount Labalekan features four craters, including one that harbors a lava dome and two smaller explosion pits. While there is no recorded history of eruptions from this volcano, it does exhibit fumaroles near its summit.[1]
