Fountains of lava up to 60 metres high have been fired into the air from Hawaii's Mauna Loa, geologists have said, generating rivers of molten rock from the world's largest active volcano.
Four fissures have now opened up on the mammoth mountain, which burst into life on Sunday for the first time in almost 40 years.
Vast clouds of steam and smoke were billowing into the sky from the volcano, which makes up half of Hawaii's Big Island.
