Data from the Global Volcanism Program of the Smithsonian Institution
Details for: Babuyan Claro
Babuyan (also called Smith volcano) in the foreground is one of five Pleistocene-to-Holocene volcanic centers occupying Babuyan de Claro Island N of Luzon. The symmetrical scoria cone is the youngest volcano on the island. Both the higher Babuyan Claro (Mt. Pangasun) and Babuyan have apparently been active in historical time, although the identity of the erupting volcano is not always certain.

Multiple Quaternary volcanic centers occupy Babuyan de Claro Island north of Luzon. The largest edifice is Babuyan Claro (Mount Pangasun) at the center of the island, a stratovolcano with a 500-m-diameter summit crater and a smaller crater on the upper E flank. An older edifice lies just 1.5 km WSW, but the basaltic andesite Smith volcano (Mount Babuyan), about 4 km ENE of the summit, is the youngest volcanic feature on the island. Eruptions from Smith were recorded most recently during 1907-1924. Askedna Hot Spring is located at the southern base of Babuyan Claro.
