The salts make it alkaline, but they don’t colour it. So, does this salt give it a reddish hue?

According to Hannes Mattsson, a researcher at the Swiss Institute of Technology in Zurich, this volcano is favourite among petrologists because it’s the only one of its sort. The soluble salts were brought to the surface and fed into Lake Natron by Ol Doinyo Lengai, a million-year-old volcano immediately south of the lake.

Lets get to the point: What is the origin of the name Lake Natron? The main source of water for Lake Natron is the Ewaso Ngiro River, which has its basin in the central Kenyan highlands. It’s also home to some of the strangest pictures ever taken – images that appear to show living animals turning to stone. Lake Natron has a length of 57 kilometres and a width of 22 kilometres. In northern Tanzania’s Arusha District, there is a magnificent and eye-catching lake. Why is this so unique, or should I say dangerous? Why can’t humans survive if they fall into it? Is there anything that lives or reproduces here? And plenty more… This leads me to assume that everything that is given away for free has a cost. There is one condition: you must fall into Lake Natron and surrender your life. Will you continue to deny it? That is something I don’t believe anyone can deny. If I say you can have one for free, I’m not kidding.

Oh! There’s no way this debt-ridden life can take on any more debt. Without a doubt, we’d like one for ourselves.
