The morphologically youthful Iraya volcano, at the north end of Batan Island, is the northernmost active volcano in the Philippines...
The youngest dated unit of Iraya is a pyroclastic-flow deposit radiocarbon dated at about 1500 years ago (Richard et al., 1986). The Philippines Institute of Volcanology and Seismology (2004-) listed an eruption in 1454 AD of unspecified character.
