Active mud volcano in Berca, Buzau, Romania. These small, volcano-shaped mounds, usually a few meters tall, result from deep volcanic gas eruptions.
A bubbling mudpot at Artists Paint Pots in Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming, USA. The geothermal activity creates boiling gray-white mud with rising bubbles and mineral deposits along the rim. This unique geothermal phenomenon combines science, geology, and abstract beauty, making it ideal for travel, environmental, and design use.

Lower Geyser Basin, Yellowstone National Park, Wyoming USA: the mud pots at the Fountain Paint Pot area in Yellowstone National Park’s Lower Geyser Basin are acidic geothermal features formed where limited water supply and intense heat interact with volcanic gases and minerals. Hydrogen sulfide gas from underground vents is converted by microorganisms into sulfuric acid, which dissolves surrounding rock into fine clay, creating a viscous, bubbling mud. The texture and activity of the mud pots vary seasonally, becoming more fluid during spring runoff and thicker in late summer. Their distinctive colors—ranging from pink and red to gray and brown—are produced by varying iron oxide and mineral content in the clay.
