I see a granular-appearing rock outcrop of indeterminate classification, which both intrigues and concerns me.

On Indonesian island, so, volcanic likely…yellow color and near surface water which screams palagonitization of ejecta to me.

Eastern Klamath County, volcanic eruption that transitions from explosive hydrovolcanism to classic cinder cone eruptive styles as rising magma initially encounters groundwater and/or shallow surface water, then either seals itself from those waters as eruption proceeds, or the water was consumed by the eruption.
