Kurile Lake, located in the Kuril Islands, is considered an active volcanic crater lake. It was formed in the caldera of the Kamen volcano, which has shown signs of activity in the past. The lake is known for its geothermal features, indicating ongoing volcanic processes. Therefore, it is classified as active rather than dormant or extinct.

Is the volcano Crater Lake in Oregon dormant or extinct?
The volcano beneath Crater Lake in Oregon is considered dormant, meaning it is currently inactive but has the potential to become active in the future. It last erupted around 7,700 years ago, forming the caldera that now holds Crater Lake.
Can a volcano have a closed opening?
Dormant volcanoes may have their throat blocked with rubble, or maybe a lake. This is always the case with extinct volcanoes.
How many volcanoes are in New Zealand?
New Zealand, as a subduction zone, has dozens of extinct volcanoes. The status of the few active or dormant ones is monitored on gns.cri.nz. Currently there are four 'frequently active' volcanoes, and a further seven 'reasonably active'. The Taupo Volcanic Zone is among the most destructive and prolific in the world.
Is Mount Arenal an example of an dormant or an active volcano?
dormant
What type of volcano is Clear Lake?
No. The Clear Lake volcanic field saw its last eruption roughly 10,000 years ago. Incidentally, volcanologists have stopped using the term extinct to describe volcanoes, because ANY volcano can technically reactivate at any time. Only Active and Dormant are now used to describe volcanoes. The Clear Lake volcanic field is currently dormant, however there is still a lot a geological activity there. The same forces that created the Clear Lake volcanic field are now powering The Geysers of the Mayacamas Mountains, one of the largest geothermal energy fields in the world, along with all the various hot springs in the Napa/Calistoga region.
Is wizard island dormant?
Wizard Island is located in Crater Lake, Oregon. The volcanic cone is long dormant, but some hydrothermal activity at the bottom of Crater Lake has been detected, which suggests that the mountain is still active.
Is Mount Konocti still an active volcano?
Mount Konocti is not currently active. In fact, it has not erupted in about 10000 years. However, geothermal features such as hot springs and fumaroles in the Clear Lake Volcanic Field hint at possible future activity at Mount Konocti and elsewhere in the Clear Lake area.
