The Harrat Lunayyir volcanic field contains around 50 identified craters with numerous lava flows seen in this November 2019 Planet Labs satellite image monthly mosaic (N is at the top; this image is approximately 89 km across). The scoria cones contain summit craters and many experienced flank collapse or rafting during the eruptions, resulting in horseshoe-shaped craters. The youngest lavas occur in the central part of the field and cover 25 km².
