- Description:On September 29, 2023, @agepoyo_jay shared a captivating video capturing the mesmerizing phenomenon of the Pink Lake at Lake MacDonnell in Western Australia, near the Nullarbor Plain. Located close to Penong, approximately 13 kilometers north, Lake MacDonnell was once a salt mine and is now renowned as the largest gypsum mine in Australia, situated on the largest gypsum deposit in the southern hemisphere. The lake's vibrant pink hue is a result of the presence of salt-loving algae known as dunaliella salina and halobacteria, which secrete carotenoid red pigments.
