This imperative site is also important as it has an immense ground of salt dipostion which is the source of income of the Afar,since they skillfully mine the saline to supply the country with edible salt. benize this wide carpet of salt is an extensive source of volcanic hit that results babbles of hot water to rise through layers of salt and anhydrite deposit. the never tiring nor non-cooling lava lake at Erta-Ale, one of the stunning place in Afar,boiles it self and at times it spew out small amount of lava to fall shield volcano with an enjoyable colorfull land scapes of reds, browns and yellow, that form captivating fumaroles, amazing rock formations of crystal and mineral deposits across the land. Studies record that the place had experienced large volcanic irruptions until about fourty years ago, yet the continues activate of the lava prevents explosive irruptions. Situated the North east of Ethiopia in a regoin specially in the Afar region, Denakil Depuration is supposed the most challenging site in Ethiopia.
Dallol is a soot cone well of lava in the Danakil Depression, despite the fact that its exceptional topography implies it comes up short on of the model volcanic looks. All things considered, Dallol is a material of radiant green, reds, and yellows conveyed across many hot acidic springs and hills of salt stores. The aqueous movement underneath the Dallol cavity is liable for this colorful scene. As groundwater diffuses opposite the high countries, it is warmed by the magma underneath Dallol and pushed through the cavity, dissolving salts and different minerals simultaneously. These minerals oxidize to make beautiful, supersaturated natural aquifers. The extraordinary hotness of the Danakil then, at that point, vanishes the water, leaving behind brilliant salt arrangements that separate the springs. The wild Dallol scene is the consequence of progressing geographical cycles, and that implies Dallol is a very powerful scene, with new springs and salt arrangements emerging constantly. Albeit comparable in appearance to the brilliant strings of America’s Yellowstone National Park, Dallol tones emerge from inorganic, geographical cycles, rather than organic ones. The exceptional hotness of the Danakil Depression, joined with the outrageous convergences of salts, potash, and different minerals in the natural aquifers makes Dallol a superb exploration ground for poly extremophile microorganisms, which might hold hints regarding how life started on Earth, and how life may exist on different planets like Mars.
