A mini ‘volcano’ erupted in an avocado orchard.

A larger one suddenly emerged in the same area in 1943.

The strange baby one was then spotted by workers 82 years later.

They initially thought it was the burning embers of a dying campfire.

But when they poured water on the smoking ground, the liquid immediately began to boil.

The area of the hot vent is around 26 feet in diameter.

It popped up in Uruapan, west of Mexico City, Mexico.

Workers first spotted it on Monday (21 Apr), as reported by What’s The Jam.

They informed the authorities, and a team of geological specialists visited the site yesterday (24 Apr).

Representatives of the UNAM Institute of Geophysics and the Earth Sciences Research Institute of the Michoacán University of San Nicolás de Hidalgo are involved in the ongoing investigation.

The council advised people to stay away from the affected area until further information is available.

It wouldn’t be the first time that a volcano sprang from the ground in the area.

In 1943, the Parícutin cinder cone volcano suddenly surged from a cornfield.

It erupted continually for nine years and eventually rose to an altitude of 1,391ft, greatly changing the landscape in the region.

The ejection of ash and lava damaged an area of around 90 square miles.

In 1997, CNN named Parícutin one of the Seven Natural Wonders of the World.
