A hot mud burst emerged from the land belonging to the Nurul Alamiyyah Islamic Boarding School (Ponpes) in Jungkat District, Mempawah Regency, West Kalimantan (West Kalimantan).
The mud is hot after the boarding school manager drilled 40 meters deep to get a clean water source.
"The hot mud burst occurred after the drilling was followed by an explosion that hit the laboratory building," said Head of Nurul Alamiyayah Islamic Boarding School, KH Husnan Bin Nur Alam when met in Wajok Hilir, Jungkat, West Kalimantan, Tuesday, May 9, confiscated by Antara.
From inside the ground, apart from emitting hot mud, a pungent smell is also thought to be the smell of gas.
He said a similar incident had occurred several years ago in the pesantren environment. As a result, he now admits that he is deterred from drilling wells to get clean water.
Previously in 2003, in front of the fence, a one meter distance had exploded for 24 hours, a lot of water came out and the water was used as medicine by local people. Then in 2006, the Regent of Mempawah Agus Salim (period 2004-2009) budgeted to make a bore well and at 10 pm it exploded when the drilling had reached 40 meters and all engines were destroyed," he said.

He said that the third time this was done because of his desire that Islamic boarding schools have clean water and the belief from drilling companies that drill wells can be used.
"I asked the team who drilled, he said it was good and the water could be drunk," he said.
Regarding the explosion and hot mud coming out of the soil, he said the local government had checked soil samples.
The sample is still being taken to the laboratory and is awaited for up to two weeks. If it is positive (containing gas) then the Islamic boarding school will be moved," he said.
According to him, Islamic boarding schools will not receive any assistance regarding drilling to get clean water.
"God willing, in the future I will try to get clean water, I will look for pipes to accommodate and buy large wings and hopefully there will be assistance from the local government," he said.
