Mount Tomuro, Lava dome in Kanazawa, Japan.

Mount Tomuro rises to 548 meters above sea level, presenting a geological formation characterized by its andesitic rock composition and rounded summit structure.

The formation of Mount Tomuro occurred during the mid-Pleistocene epoch through volcanic activity that deposited layers of bluish and reddish andesite rock.

Mount Tomuro stands within the boundaries of Iōzen Prefectural Natural Park, where local residents participate in outdoor activities throughout the seasons.

The mountain offers multiple trails leading to the summit, with designated areas for nature observation and geological studies of the volcanic formations.

Scientists have identified distinct variations in magnetite concentrations between the bluish and reddish andesite rocks that compose the mountain's structure.
