Background
The silicic Dalaha'ale volcano is cut by a large caldera open to the NE, which has been referred to as Dalaha'ale and Asa Ale. Silicic activity here and at the adjacent Data Gabalti volcano was dated at about 1.52 to 0.95 million years and followed by fissural basaltic lavas from about 1.0 to 0.33 million years (Lahitte et al., 2003a).---
