Lake Black Cow is divided into two distinct bodies of water due to the presence of a narrow passageway measuring 70 m (230 ft) in length, 8 m (26 ft) in width, and 4 m (13 ft) in depth. This passageway serves as a conduit for the connection between the two lakes.[2]
The initial lake is oval in shape. The depth of this section of the lake is relatively shallow..[3]
The primary factor contributing to the transparency of the lake's water is the substantial absorption of mercury, which has a significant impact on the lake's transparency. The initial lake's clear and fresh water flows into the subsequent one..[4]
Additionally, the lake is designated as "Lake Black Waters," a moniker derived from the profound darkness of its water. The lake was designated the "Lake Black Cow" due to its visual resemblance to a cow's horn.[5]
