How would you describe the physical appearance of a black smoker?

A black smoker is a hydrothermal vent that emits dark, mineral-rich fluids at high temperatures from the ocean floor. It typically appears as a chimney-like structure surrounded by shimmering water due to the mixing of hot vent fluids with cold seawater. The coloration comes from the minerals present in the vent fluids, giving it a dark, almost black appearance.
