The Semeru volcano sits on the volcanic chain that runs the length of Sumatra and Java. Semeru火山坐落在从苏门答腊岛到爪哇岛的火山带上

　　Two geologists have been killed and four others injured in Indonesia after a volcano erupted while they were working near the crater.
　　The six geologists, from Indonesia, America and Israel, were carrying out research on Mount Semeru in eastern Java, when it started spewing rocks and lava.
　　Two Indonesian geologists were killed after falling around 20 metres from the rim.
　　The others were hit by stones which seriously injured one of the Americans. He has now been flown to a hospital in Singapore.
　　Police said rescue efforts had been hampered by bad weather, leaving the geologists stranded for more than a day on Mount Semeru. A police team eventually had to climb up the volcano to find them after helicopters failed to reach them.
