Ol Doinyo Lengai is an active volcano in northern Tanzania. It consists of a volcanic cone with two craters, the northern of which has erupted during historical time. Uniquely for volcanoes on Earth, it has erupted natrocarbonatite,[2] an unusually low temperature and highly fluid type of magma. Eruptions in 2007–2008 affected the surrounding region.
