After being not active from eruptions on Monday (September 12), Mt. Lokon in North Sulawesi erupted again on Tuesday, at 6.06 am and 9.18 am local time, a local official said. He said seismic data between 00.00 - 06.00 am local time showed several quakes including one deep four shallow volcanic quakes. He pointed out that it was recorded that tremors continued with an amplitude of 0.3 - 3 millimeters. "However, it doesn't mean that Mt. Lokon has stopped its activities," said Bina who predicted that the volcano has created dome of lava as tremors continued and a shallow volcanic quake still occurred. "When there is enough energy, eruptions will occur. However, we cannot predict whether or not there would be big ones," he added. Mt. Lokon erupted powerfully on October 24, 1991 followed by a minor one on July 14, 2011, ANTARA reported.
