This site is one of the mud pots left on Mount Makiling, Los Banos, Philippines, an inactive volcano. A mud pot is a type of hot spring that is formed when due to volcanic heat & sulfuric acid breaks down surrounding rocks into clay. The clay mixes with water to form mud (so called mud spring) that is very hot around 800 C, sulfurous (50mg/L), and very acidic pH – 2.0. With varying consistency and color.
