MANILA, Philippines – Lava continued to flow from Mayon Volcano's mouth coupled with more high frequency volcano earthquakes, the Philippine Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (Phivolcs) said Wednesday.
Phivolcs said in its 8 a.m. report that it has recorded 78 high frequency volcanic earthquakes and tremors for the past 24 hours.
“The volcanic earthquakes represent magma ascent towards the crater of the volcano while tremors were associated to the detached fragments of lava and rockfalls,” the agency said.
Phivolcs said lava that have flowed out of the volcano has reached 700 meters to 800 meters downslope below the crater.
