Balagan-Tas is a cinder cone constructed along a fault on the SW flank of the Momskiy Mountains in the NE part of Russia's Sakha Republic. A poorly preserved crater fed subalkaline basaltic lava flows that covered an area of 4-5 km2. A Potassium-Argon date of 300,000 years was obtained (Prokopiev, 2007 pers. comm.).
