Data from the Global Volcanism Program of the Smithsonian Institution
Details for: Oki-Dogo
Maruyama cone is the low-angle peak at the left and Odokoyama on the right in this offshore view of Oki-Dogo Island. The Oki-Dogo Islands, north of the SW Honshu city of Matsue, are largely Pleistocene in age. The Daimanjisan lava flow on Oki-Dogo overlies alluvial gravel containing an ancient water jar, and the name Takuhiyama ("Burning Mountain") may reflect an oral record of an eruption.

The Oki-Dogo islands, north of the SW Honshu city of Matsue, are one of several locations of Holocene volcanism on islands of the Japan Sea off the west coast of Japan. The islands are largely Pleistocene in age, and dated rocks range from about 800,000 to 300,000 years old. Tomita (1969) described a shield volcano and cinder cone that have produced Holocene basalts. These alkaline basalts are related to the opening of the Japan Sea and contain abundant mantle-derived xenoliths. The Daimanji-san lava flow overlies alluvial gravel containing an ancient water-jar. The name Takuhi-yama ("Burning Mountain") may record a tradition of an eruption.
