An area of 55 km², it is a deeply eroded volcanic edifice with a lake occupying the centre of the structure. It is apparently located at the intersection of 4 fault systems and much of the geology is obscured by up to 4 m of recent sediments.
The volcanic edifices of Catanda have principally tuff ring and maar morphologies, which contain a series of volcanic units up to 100 m thick. The eruptive activity in the area was predominantly explosive, since most of the volcanic series are pyroclastics. However, effusive activity is also reported, and four outcrops of carbonatite lavas - Huilala-Ungongué, Ipunda, Jango and Utihohala have been described.
