DESCRIPTION
From Stelling and others, 2005 [1]: "An isolated polygenetic stratocone outside the caldera to the northwest, here named Neptune Cone ("NC") lacks deposits from the caldera-forming eruption, suggesting a Holocene age. The most recent eruption from this cone was a fissure eruption that produced a ~4 km-long linear ridge of basaltic (49 wt.% SiO2, Mg#=0.57), scoria and spatter, extending to the north of the cone ("arm" extending from Neptune Cone)."
